It’s one of the two tub versions. One tub does the washing, the other is just a spinner. They are quite a bit less expensive than the one tub models, why I don’t know. I would think that it would be more expensive to have two motors and tubs instead of just one. Anyway, no more hand washing! But there is a catch. The hoses aren’t long enough to reach the tap and the drain, so we have to use a bucket to load and drain. That’s not too bad I suppose. I have to do that with hand washing, but at least I don’t do the actual washing… The more complicated thing is that the machine is downstairs (It’s the only place with enough space) and the entire bottom floor is taken up by a muslim couple. This has happened before, this way the wife doesn’t have to stay covered the whole time, they can just close the door to that level. I was talking to the husband about the machine and he offered to do my laundry for me! I quickly figured out that he thought it would be the simplest arrangement, that way I wasn’t coming around checking on my laundry and generally being unexpected. Still, I feel kind of silly, the machine is supposed to make it a little easier, but now I’m not doing a damn thing! I should do something for him, but I’m not sure what…
