Portable (Nictemaw) washer and (CTT) dryer for sale. Washer needs new drain hose or repaired. Otherwise works great. Comes with stand with wheels for easy mobility. Can set on countertop for easy drainage into sink without repairing or replacing drain hose (I've used it that way myself). If drain hose is working properly it can be set on its stand and water will pump upwards into sink drain. Hooks on to spigot and comes with attachment. Cost $300 new asking $75.

Dryer works great with no problems. It's better to vent it outside but you can buy a kit to vent it inside if you live in an apartment, dorm, etc. Specially made filters can be ordered from Amazon. Cost $330 new asking $150.

Strictly cash. No wire transfers. Don't waste my time and yours.
