Length:: 9:14 MinsLike anyone living in New York will tell you, space is always a problem. So when I came across this product, I was ecstatic. I first saw the panda but they were going to charge me an arm and a leg for shipping. Amazon ships this one for free so I decided to get this one and I believe it works just the same.
I live in an apartment building and going to the laundromat is really a big issue for me. Yes I must confess. I'm one of those people that let the laundry pile up. I dread doing laundry so much that I sometimes let it pile up for up to 6 weeks [shh.. pls don't tell anyone ;) ] First of all, I have to drag the laundry down a flight of 3 stairs and then back up when the laundry is done. And then drive down a couple of blocks to the laundromat. The one very close to me charges $4.00 for a load for the small machines which I think is ridiculous!! Where I go to charge $2.50 for a load. The big machines are $3.75 and $4.50. Sometimes it's raining or snowing or it just rained and/ or snowed ugh.. you get the picture. Then at the laundromat, I have to deal with rude people, some machines will probably not be working so I have to wait for a machine to become available and then wait for the clothes to wash and then the dryer plus the added inconvenience of washing my clothes in public (when did it become acceptable to wash our dirty linen in public lol.. just saying)
With the base camp, I can do my laundry in the comfort of my home, while doing other house chores or just relaxing on a nice saturday afternoon. I don't have space for a regular washer. Even if I did, the cost of a washer and a dryer is very discouraging. This product saves on water, soap and money too. If you spend about $15-20 a week at the laundromat, then this product will pay for itself in a couple of months.
It just takes a little getting used to. When transfering your laundry from the washer to the spin dryer, there maybe a few spills but it can easily be wiped off. When you use it a couple of times, you get to feel your way around the spills which is the only down side I find here.
Now I wash 2 to 3 times a week. I thought I hated doing laundry but I just found out it's the whole process involved that I don't like. I actually enjoy doing laundry now. I wash 2 to 3 times a week that by the time laundry day comes around, I hardly have anything to wash. I need to go on a laundry diet lol.. But it will not be able to wash some heavy stuff like my comforter or winter jacket. For those, I will go to the laundromat. But then I don't wash those every week.
The base camp can definitely fit a little more clothes than I showed in my video. I just ran out of clothes to wash :) Remember to let it air out over-night or for a couple of hours and then store it. It stores nicley in a spot in my closet along with the spin dryer. Also, don't forget to hang up the clothes you just washed with a hanger or clothes line or anything you may choose. It's winter right now so I just hang them up overnight and put them away the next morning. It's no problem at all doing this compared to all the problems of going to a laundromat. I believe my clothes will last longer especially the dark colors, I have the option of choosing how much time they will wash, about 6 to 9 mins if they are not heavily soiled. So the colors stay a little longer. With the regular machines at the laundromat, I don't have that option. My dark clothes will normally wash just as long as my whites. I don't think this is very healthy for dark colors.
With all that said, I will definitely recommend this product.
I hope this helps
