Default This is GREAT for people with Arthritis

Hi All.

I have Osteoarthritis and it's very hard, when I wash clothes, to wring them out. I don't have a washer and a dryer, and I bring my white things to the laundromat, but there are items I simply have to hand wash.

I have been looking hi and lo for a clothes wringer. I looked and I looked (I would have settled for those hand wringers that people used at the turn of the century, where you just pull the clothes through two rolling things and you turn the crank and the water is squeezed out, BUT I COULDN'T EVEN FIND ONE OF THOSE.

So after much searching, I found my new miracle.

I went here:

http://www.simplygoodstuff.com/mini_dryer.html

I purchased it, it came the other day, and I have been in heaven ever since. I did my shirts, my undies, Alan's shirts, (the exact same thing I've been washing by hand for years), but now I don't have to place these items between the towel, and have Alan hold one end, while i turn the towel round and round to squeeze all the water out.

No more!!

I went to youtube and typed in SPIN DRYER.

I watched a demo and it sold me.

I then went to (see above link), bought it and the rest is history.

You have no idea HOW THIS SAVED MY HANDS AND MY ARMS.

The clothes come out just damp. I hang them up over my bathtub on a tension rod, but if I had a backyard, I would use a clothesline, especially in this kind of weather, but I don't have a back yard, so I have to hang stuff over my tub.

THIS MAKES LIFE SO MUCH EASIER.

If I had known about this I would have purchased this item YEARS AGO.

I don't know how long it will last but even if I get a year out of it (It does appear sturdy so I'm not worried), but holy cow, ALL THE WATER COMES OUT OF THE DRAIN HOSE, and no more wringing.

Best thing I ever did for my hands.

Just wanted to share.

Melody
