## Description

desertcart.com: Scrubba Wash Bag Portable Washing Machine - Lightweight Manual Washing Machine for Travel, Camping, Laundry, Baby Clothes - Travel Essentials, Gift - use with Laundry Detergent/Sheets - 5.3 oz. : Appliances

Review: Great item to help you pack lighter - Bought this in advance of a trip where packing light will be critical. The scrubba bag arrived and we tested it with 3 pairs of socks.... water got dirty, soapy and seemed to do a good job washing the socks in the pre-trip test batch. The clear window is great to see the rinse water, wash water and allow you to adjust. I did one wash ahead of the trip and have not left on the trip yet but expect this to be a really key part of my packing light. Well built, durable, good size, no leaks or smells... easy to use, good scrubbing "dots" or nubs on the inside. Great idea, good product and I would recommend.
Review: Lots of travel, many uses. - When I say we travel a LOT, I mean we’re home less than 13 consecutive weeks a year. Most of our travel involves planes and cruises, so weight and space matter when you’re doing this kind of travel. Back in 2019, I bought a Scrubba and we set off on a drag across the Southwest, on our way from Texas to Northern California. We did ALL of our laundry for 2 persons on a 4 week trip in the Scrubba. At that time I think I used some kind of pod for detergent. Since then the Scrubba has gone transatlantic and transpacific on cruises (when I didn’t have free laundry status), and without fail, our Scrubba has done us well. I’ve transitioned to dissolving detergent sheets and allow a “soak” cycle every load (20 mins to 2 hrs-dependent upon the FUN we’re having). There’s nothing wrong with my old Scrubba still but the older valve is a real trick to open so I’m very excited for the upgraded twist valve I now have. Getting set to take a two week long run on a Caribbean cruise and will report on her performance in comparison to the OG. The fastest method we’ve found for really getting the water wrung out is first twist/squeeze, and then roll up in excess towels or even quick dry towels. A basic 550 cord hanging line (tiny loop knots and hanging clips with pinchers-bought them also on desertcart) and some carabiners or strategic looping, often across the cabin, completes the rig. When rolling up wet clothes in towels, be sure to use the flanks of the towel folded in on the clothes, roll tightly and compress the rolled towels with body weight. Note that the extra towels are in hotels or on cruise ships; our quick dry towels have been used when no alternatives were present. Now about load size: I typically can wash 1-2 pairs of pants, 1-2 workout outfits (shorts & tank top), 4-5 pairs of socks, a bra or two, or a dress, or ladies outfit. Over time we have learned what works best for stain removal, vs everyday wear/use. I really love using the Scrubba with the dissolving laundry sheets. Everything smells so clean and fresh afterwards but not heavily perfumed. I’ve included a side by side photo of the OG green Scrubba with the brand new black Scrubba. I will update in December or after New Year’s depending on how busy we get. Another 4 month trip will start on New Year’s, and I’ve got packing to do! PS.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the roll-down closure 100% water tight?**
A: The roll-down closure used allows the product to be lightweight and flexible however some water can wick through the closure over time. This can be minimized by rolling the closure as tightly as possible 6 times.

**Q: What cleaning products can be used to wash clothes in the Scrubba wash bag?**
A: Laundry liquids, powders and sheets can all be used in the Scrubba wash bag (even shampoo or bodywash if you are desperate). Please ensure powders or sheets are fully dissolved before adding clothing to the portable washing machine.

**Q: Does the Scrubba wash bag remove stains?**
A: Independent testing shows that the Scrubba wash bag gives a machine quality wash. However, just like with your home washing machine some stains need to be pre-treated before washing. Travel stain removing pens work well with the Scrubba wash bag.

**Q: Can I soak clothes in the Scrubba wash bag?**
A: While the Scrubba wash bag is designed for washing clothes in just minutes, you can soak clothes if needed. As the roll-down closure isn't 100% waterproof, the Scrubba wash bag should be placed upright in a shower, bath or basin during soaking.

**Q: What do I do if I have issues with my Scrubba wash bag?**
A: Please reach out as we can assist with tips and tricks to get the most out of your Scrubba wash bag. We can also offer repair instructions and/or replacements for manufacturing defects.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Buy a dry bag instead
*by S***N on October 10, 2025*

It works as advertised but you’re better off buying a standard dry bag for a fraction of the price.
