Non-electric washing machines
Posted October 9th, 2008 by Kay HartnettHas anyone used a non-electric washing machine? Specifically, the James Washer? That's the only brand I know, so I'd be interested in hearing about others, and how they work. Is it as easy as advertised (a few minutes of handle turning), or will it become a terrible chore? Do clothes come clean?
Greetings Kay
I've never used a non-electric washing machine. (Just learned of them, actually.) The fellow who told me about them thought they worked well. He used one for many years (and may still, due to environmental sensitivity). Relative to hand-washing, he felt it was much less tiring on the hands. He used/uses it to wash everything.
Hope that is a little bit helpful.
