What's to keep the beads from getting tangled up in pockets and other nooks and crannies? Why do they all fall back through the mesh in the drum?
I wonder what those beads are about, whether it's some super-special material, patented of course. Once you buy the washing machine, you must pay the company for new beads. No info on how much a fresh supply of beads costs.
All in all, the idea of drastically reducing water use is great, I just hope there isn't too much fine print.
Another good side to using only a cup of water is that the clothes are much drier when the cycle is over, reducing drying times and (if a drier is used instead of a clothes line) electricity.
