I am a PhD student and i don't get much time to do laundry. I don't even have a machine for it lol. But this one works well for me. Even if I just soak them and just rub them enough, the clothes are bright as new. Stains, which u usually get, are gone. Smells good too. So it works for a low effort wash pretty well. (Not sponsored, i wish they did tho)
