Features:The Kenmore 44722 offers 2.1 cubic feet of space for washing clothes, with a durable stainless steel wash basket that will last through many loads. The Quiet Pak Plus sound insulation makes the machine quiet and discreet for even small locations, yet the four wash cycles make it work just like a full-sized machine.The two water levels, three temperature settings, and three speed combinations offer versatility to care for a range of different fabrics, ranging from your toughest stains to your most delicate linens. The top-load design makes it easy to get clothes in and out of the Kenmore 44722, and the express cycle is ideal for clothes that need a little refreshing. The hardware to hook this machine directly to your sink is included, so washing your laundry in your own home is made simple. Pros:All that is required to run this machine is a standard outlet and access to a sink. It can easily be wheeled on its four casters, making it easy to move from storage to your sink in no time. It provides the convenience of a washing machine, but can be used in even the smallest homes and is very portable. The stainless steel wash basket is durable, and will most likely outlast the entire machine. The sound insulation makes it possible to wash clothes any hour of the day, since it won’t disturb anyone while running. This small machine works just like a full-sized machine, being able to wash all types of fabrics with several different wash settings. Small to medium sized loads can fit in this washer, and temperature settings and speed combinations can be changed to cater to any fabric type. Cons:This machine can only handle a small to medium sized load, so multiple cycles must be run in order to wash large amounts of laundry. With only 2.1 cubic feet of space, this machine is ideal for one to two people. Although the Kenmore 44722 is a smaller washer, the price is in the same range as full-sized machines. The price range for this machine is between $400 and $600, and a protection agreement is another $200. According to some owners of the Kenmore 44722 portable washer, a burning plastic smell is present during the first few cycles. While it does fade away over time, it can be irritating to those who are sensitive to smells. Unlike full-sized machines, it is not possible to skip directly to the spin cycle on this machine. You have to start the load from the beginning of the cycle, and wait for the end of the cycle instead of skipping ahead. Conclusion:The Kenmore portable washing machine is a perfect solution for anyone living in an apartment or small house. It is easy to use and washes just as well as full-sized machines, but can be a pretty pricey investment.
