Overview

Avalon Bay designed the EcoSpin as a counter-sized machine with an agitating wash step and a spin step to wring out water. You add laundry, water and detergent, then turn the crank for each stage.

No electricity or plumbing means it works anywhere, and it saves on utilities and detergent. The limits are the effort of cranking and the small load, so it is a supplement to a washer, not a replacement.

Who it's for

Campers, RV travelers and apartment dwellers without a hookup will find a use for it. A family with a weekly mountain of laundry needs a full machine.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • No power or plumbing needed
  • Separate spin step removes water
  • Fits on a counter
  • Light enough to carry
Cons
  • Hand cranking takes effort
  • Small load size

Performance notes

Agitation comes from the hand-driven mechanism, so cleaning quality tracks how steadily you crank and how much water and detergent go in. Spinning wrings out water but does not fully dry clothes.
