I am very satisfied with this washer. I do not know how it handles lint but it is not a problem. Black garments come out fine.

I have washed mine several times. I just throw it in the washing machine, and tumble dry it on the lowest heat setting. Couldn't be easier. Regular laundry detergent, no fabric softener. I wash and dry it with towels. I have had no difficulty with the fibers coming off on the towels, and no issue with lint from the towels on the duster. It comes out like new every time. With a replacement head available for under $10, I will continue to do this, and happily replace it, when it is finally worn out. It couldn't be any more user friendly or easier to clean.

How odd!!! Since it is supposed to be an easy quick rinsing out of the clothes with no residue left in them, I'm a little surprised it is leaving a film on your machine. I would contact the owner at Molly's Suds, I'm sure they will help you trouble shoot. Are you using too much detergent with soft water perhaps?

Hi! I recently experienced a similar problem! I had removed all the filters (there are three removable ones - two foam and one white paper), washed them all, cleaned everything off the beater bar/roller, shook out the tube/hose, even unscrewed the bottom and cleaned out whatever I could find there too! Still, as soon as I turned it on, it was going to red! Grrrrrr I FINALLY found the problem. You might have already checked this, but just in case, sharing it here. It might help you or someone else. When looking at back of the vacuum, on the right side, BEHIND the main tube/hose, you can see the tube attach to the black vacuum base which feeds into the clear body where the dirt goes in. I could not see any clogs anywhere. BUT - this part of the tube/hose COMES OFF - it is easy to overlook, but it twists and releases. I did that as a last resort, and found my problem! There was a piece of paper in there, and all kinds of dirt and hair (we all shed some and have two cats) were packed pretty solid behind the paper! It took a tool like a crochet hook to get it all out and unpacked! (I have a metal "tube turner" for sewing, which is what I used, but anything super thin and long can work, as long as you do not go THROUGH the hose.) I took an amazing amount of junk that had not come out when shaking the hose, cleaning things, even taking the rest of the vacuum apart... it hides in that last curve of the hose! I hope this helps someone else, because this is a great little powerhouse of the vacuum that is perfect for our little townhouse. But the clogging does happen sometimes, and I've now found the FIRST place I'll look, instead of the dead last! ;-)

Yep! We got an LG HE washer and I use soapnuts instead of store-bought detergent. For a full load, I put a handful of the nuts in a clean sock, the tie it and throw the sock into the washer with the laundry. Wash with warm water then rinse with cold water works best, but washing with cold water works fine too. I just love the smell of my laundry afterwards...a light but very refreshing smell!

the washer broke too many times to try to wash delicates. Lg replaced the washer and I retuned it to Home Depot and purchased Maytag front loader and have been well pleased with no problems.

twinsmom: I haven't had that problem but I have lost another brand to a car wash in the past. it is a well-made product and certainly inexpensive (compare to dealer price). probably worth a try for you.

Mine has started doing the same thing, only it worked really well for a few months. I think it's because I wiped the inner circle on the bottom, which the instructions say not to do. I did it lightly, because I want it clean, but apparently, this ruins the unit! VERY frustrating because now I have to buy a new one!

Hello Deena, There are two small screws that hold the unit together. These can be removed and the internal works are completely accessible for cleaning with a small hand held vac or a brush. So far, it hasn't been an issue, having gathered no lint so far. Given that these are standard in rooms in Puerto Vallarta, I have to think lint is probably not much of an issue.

Works well. Increase dwell time from lacquer. Couple coats before scraping off. No water until end. Scraper, steel wool, then hot water and nylon brush, then pressure washer, then soap and water, then pressure washer. Faster the better when scrubbing off stripper. Commit to it otherwise you'll just have to do it twice. Oxalic acid if you get black spots.

Thank you for your inquiry. Happen to have one at home and have only used it twice but I have had no issues with getting the unit completely cleaned. Hope that helps. Thank you

I have just threw it in The washer. http://www.amazon.com/gp/r.html?R=3IJQYAM5NPXCO&C;=1AHPHMLCM3DZ0&H;=YKGTOXGUPIAJDWUPZDOAI7YY81IA&T;=C&U;=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Fproduct%2FB003YIHXO6%3Fref_%3Dpe_527950_33691680

Mine leaks too at the shut-off valve. I had the washers in place and I believe they were rightly used. It seems that there is another washer below the hex nut (which is not visible) and in my case perhaps that washer has issues. I can see water coming out from below the hex nut.I tried several times but could not stop the leakage. I am returning this piece and ordering another one. Let's see how is the other one.

My first answer: buy another, they're inexpensive. But if you want to clean none, run hot water and use a degreasing detergent, and soak it an hour, scrub it, rinse it. Seriously, save the trouble and buy a new one.

Cold machine wash and low heat in the dryer has worked for me. I've only done two cleanings so far, but have had no problems with the fasteners or anything else on it in the wash or dryer.
