Scrubba Wash Bag Portable Washing Machine – Lightweight Manual Hand Washer – Ideal Travel Essentials for Camping, Hotels, RV & Baby Clothes – Use with Laundry Detergent or Hand Soap – 150g

Super useful for cleaning clothes in circumstances when a washing machine isn't available

Love this. It has been to Hawaii twice now. Great for washing without having to go out to do the laundry. Managed to do t-shirts and dresses as well as the small items. OK cant put much in if you want to give the items a good scrubbing, but it works well.

Used this to wash reusable diapers and the results are good, using non bio power detergent and hot water. Seems to be well designed, my only suggestion would be to add some instructions to fold it back into the neat triangle shape it is shipped it, so that the original cardboard can be used to stow it when it's not in use.

Scrubba Wash Bag 2.0 I'd wanted one of these for ages and finally cracked and shelled out the £45 asking price just before going on a camping holiday (only to see it go on special offer for £40 a few days later). It's a simple piece of kit - essentially a dry bag with the addition of a knobbly flexible scrubbing board inside and a miniature air valve on the outside. To use, add warm water to a given line, add some detergent and agitate to mix, then add a few items of clothing, then let out the air using the small valve - a small amount of water may come out through the valve if you don't stop in time. Letting the air out makes a big difference, because it means you can work away at scrubbing the clothes without fighting a bubble of air. Scrub the clothes for a couple of minutes then empty the water, squeeze out the clothes and rinse with clean water. I was staying at a campsite and this was more convenient and cleaner than washing my clothes in the campsite kitchen with rubber gloves. It was also more discreet - I could wash knickers in the kitchen sink in this Scrubba without everyone else seeing what I was doing. It's great if you just want to wash a couple of items every couple of days - say knickers and a tee shirt. For sale at the time of writing this review at £45.

Not yet used but instructions and reviews seem to indicate this is going to be the answer to less packing and washing during trips. Certainly compact and looks easy to use. Does seem pricey but hopefully does the job.

Bought for a 6 month trip. Started falling apart after 2 months while we were in Australia where they're made. I emailed the address on their website for a warranty claim and never had a reply to the 2 emails sent. We kept using the Scrubba. After 4 months of use - all within the instructions, the seals at the top of the bag have come off, rendering it unsealable and it developed a split, so it leaked anyway. Not impressed, will be using a sturdy dry bag next time, which does the same job for less money.

worked well on a road trip recently…

Was helpful on holiday for hand washing, but the bottom seal where it meets the clear window leaks. The valve at the top also leaks but you can hold the top up to stop this happening. No way around the faulty seal at the bottom though sadly. Poor quality for a good idea. Not acceptable for the amount it costs sadly.

Es práctica y útil

Great product that i will be using frequently on my next backpack trip in South East Asia. I wish I had discovered this product years ago when I was away in far away land with limited washing possibilities. Very small in size and excellent for packing. Just read the instructions before using it! You must empty the air inside before scrubbing.

Très pratique c'est mon 2eme, et celui-ci je l'ai offert

Love this. Using it on a family world trip for small items and when we have a hard time easily getting loads of laundry done. It works super well, easy to use and packs up super small.

No ocupa nada y es tremendamente práctico. En mi afán por llevar lo máximo posible en el mínimo espacio posible, esta bolsa aporta varias funcionalidades extraordinarias. Mi uso es para emergencias, no para usarlo como producto de limpieza. A pesar de esto, he de decir que las 3 veces que la he llevado de viaje la he usado; he lavado un par de camisetas, ropa interior y una toalla, todo de manera rápida y sencilla. Imagino que la calidad no es tan buena como una lavadora al uso, pero es verdad que en 3 minutos tienes la ropa limpia y tus manos secas. No he usado detergente sino la pastilla de jabón que uso para ducharme y asearme. Primero restriego el jabón en la superficie rugosa de la bolsa, luego añado la ropa, después el agua (caliente si es posible), cierro y a frotar un ratillo. Al sacar la ropa, es recomendable escurrirla bien y luego enrollarla dentro de una toalla y comprimir con las posaderas. De esta manera estará suficientemente seca para poder colgarla y se termine de secar con el aire sin que gotee. En mi caso uso toallas de baño turco o de microfibra, que son superligeras para empacar de viaje y extremadamente absorventes. Otro caso de uso 2x1 :) Aparte de bolsa de lavado, también funciona como bolsa impermeable. No es algo que me interese actualmente, pero nunca está de más si la circunstancia se tercia. También, y esto es más útil, sirve para guardar ropa sucia o húmeda en tu maleta y que no se mezcle con la ropa limpia. En conclusión: es un producto curioso, inteligente y útil.
