Venus, The Portable Washing Machine From India Costs Only Rs. 1500

Hello Everyone, thanks for all your comments. Allow me to clear some doubts;
1) This is NOT a replacement for a regular washing machine. It has been designed as an alternative to the latter which unfortunately is still out of the reach of millions of poor families around the world. As a result of this, women in such households are forced to wash clothes by hand. If you will notice, 99% of such women squat on the ground while washing. According to a survey carried out by Prof Hans Rosling, a Swedish medical doctor of International Health at Karolinska Institute in conjunction with UN Women, majority of these women develop either back, shoulder or hip pain problems after years of doing this almost daily. We all know that any medical condition in a poor family is akin to a curse since lack of money prevents proper medical treatment. Thus millions of poor women worldwide are suffering in silence and millions will suffer in future if more such devices are not made available at an affordable price. I am sure you will all agree that doing laundry is an inevitable daily chore.
With this in mind, we are seeking funding to mass produce this machine - the only way to lower the cost...our target customers are not well to do people but poor women.

Now to few concerns voiced;
#-Link-Snipped-#: Sir, please see our campaign page #-Link-Snipped-# We have imported a special space age spray from Russia. The effect of this spray can be seen on the video we have posted and this should allay your fears regarding electrical shock.

#-Link-Snipped-#: Yes, this is indeed an ideal device for people living alone. I am married and live in Mumbai. However, my production is Delhi based so I keep travelling between Mumbai & Delhi. When in Delhi, I stay in a rented studio apt and use the Venus to wash my clothes. An old lady from US has ordered 10 machines to gift during Thanksgiving to all the students in her family.

#-Link-Snipped-#: Yes, we recommend 25 liters bucket. But then Venus works without a problem with a 15 liter bucket as well. The wash load will be less in smaller buckets.

#-Link-Snipped-#: I hope I have addressed your concerns. As far as wash quality is concerned, my regular washer does not clean the dirt from my shirt's collar area. Venus does.

@#-Link-Snipped-#: It is important to note that clothing materials make a difference to the load that can be washed at a time. Terry towels, jeans etc are heavy clothing material and absorb a lot of water. This makes them heavy. While you may only be able to wash only 2 jeans shirt or trousers at a time, 5 to 6 lighter clothing such as cotton shirts can be accommodated in one wash. Undergarments are lightest and a full week’s load can be washed in a single run. The bucket size also affects the wash load. You can use Venus with a 15 liter bucket also but the number of clothes you can wash will be lower. Ideally, we recommend 25 liters bucket.

I hope to have addressed all raised concerns. Should you have more, feel free to write to me at #-Link-Snipped-#

I also urge everyone to go to our campaign page and see it in the entriety to understand our mission. We have a reward perk called "Gift Venus to a Needy". This is for those who do not have a need for such a device but would like to help a needy family get one. Thank you all.
