Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of 21 Portable Washer with 2.3 cu. ft. Capacity 12 lbs. load - White
Customer Review: Avanti W797 washer pretty good, with a few caveats
Summary: 4 Stars
We bought this washer about two months ago for use in a basement efficiency in our house. We needed it to fit down a narrow basement stair in an historic house, and it did this with no problem. It was the smallest one we could get that had separate and permanent hot & cold water hoses.
HOWEVER, I was so keyed in on getting a washing machine of small width and depth that I didn't realize the height of it: It's relatively tall, due to the nature of its washtub (without agitator), and wouldn't you know it, it really couldn't fit under the stacking dryer and replace the broken Frigidaire washer there, not unless you were to pull the washer forward each time to open the top and load it, and, under the circumstances, being in an apartment, we didn't want the tenants to be moving it back and forth each time, and this would also throw off the "leveling foot", which helps keep it in one place.
It seems to work fine, with the caveats that you should carefully put down the spring loaded leveling foot to keep the machine anchored. Also, you must attend the machine for its entire cycle, to make sure that items such as sheets, nicely balanced in the wash cycle, have not balled themselves up and make the machine sound and look like it is trying to rinse and spin cannonballs! The lesson I learned is that more clothes are better than less for load distribution, even with sheets. Two sheets are better than just one for overall balance. The machine is light, like all the plastic crap is these days, and if it becomes unbalanced it will try to walk or galumph its way across your room!
That said, so far the machine has been good. Woe betide Avanti should this machine encounter any mechanical trouble. I'll talk about it right here!
