A WOMAN who bought a \u00a32.50 washing machine on Temu has shared her review of the cheap as chips product. <\/p>\n
Kel said that her husband had actually picked up the "fancy little washing machine" on the controversial app.<\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n
"It's arrived, and I'm really keen to see what it's like!" she said in her video on TikTok. <\/p>\n
Opening the box, she noted that they'd been sent a "green one" as she marvelled at just how small it was. <\/p>\n
"If that's the size of it, it's really little!" she said. <\/p>\n
Kel tried to set the machine up without looking at the instructions, but then gave in and was left in hysterics by the poor English in the leaflet. <\/p>\n
"Don't in too many water, folks," she laughed. <\/p>\n "That's my favourite phrase of the day!"<\/p>\n Once she'd figured out how to properly set up the machine, she took it over to somewhere she could properly see it to check it out. <\/p>\n And she quickly realised that the hole she'd been trying to put the power lead in was actually the drain for the device.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n "Joke's on me!" she giggled, before connecting up the power correctly. <\/p>\n She then looked back at the instructions to see what the next step was, at which point she couldn't help but laugh at another incorrect phrase. <\/p>\n "After being fully drained water again, form a prison," she read out. <\/p>\n Kel then decided to put water into the machine to see what happens, as she said: "Ok, I reckon there should be enough in there.<\/p>\n "I'm going to shut the lid and see what happens!"<\/p>\n She then put the machine on the second setting, at which point it whirred into life. <\/p>\n "Holy moly – it's working! That is so cool!" she marvelled. <\/p>\n She opened up the lid to show the white plastic basket whizzing around inside. <\/p>\n "I wonder what it's like with clothes in it!" she said. <\/p>\n People were quick to comment on the video, with many pointing out that Kel had made an error with her setup. <\/p>\n "You left the tumbler inside," one wrote. <\/p>\n "You need to remove the basket – the basket is for spinning\/tumbling the washed clothes. <\/p>\n "You wash clothes without the basket."<\/p>\n "The white basket is for spin only not wash," another added.<\/p>\n As a third said: "The white part in the middle is for spin mode.<\/p>\n "You don't need it in when you're just washing."<\/p>\n Others pointed out that Kel seemed to have got a great deal with the washing machine, which was a whole lot more expensive when they checked themselves. <\/p>\n "Only $5 for new account holders! Much more expensive for others," one person commented. <\/p>\n And some also shared their own reviews of the little machine. <\/p>\n "I won 2 of these on Temu! love mine for camping!" one wrote. <\/p>\n "I have it in purple! Got it as my opening offer for \u00a35, great wee thing!" someone else said. <\/p>\n "Wouldn\u2019t want to do a weekly wash in it but for camping\/small thing brilliant!<\/p>\n "I love mine, it's great!" a third said. <\/p>\n "I\u2019ve got 1 too – it\u2019s not bad," someone else wrote.<\/p>\n "Perfect to do a quick wash when toilet training."<\/p>\n But another disagreed, writing: "I'm not a fan of mine. leaks water, and the spinner thing is useless to wring out."<\/p>\n "Doesn't look like it would fit much but would be great for washing tea towels!" someone else commented. <\/p>\n<\/picture>IN A SPIN <\/span><\/p>\n
