Some downsides, to buying but it's mostly just placement. Otherwise it's basically exactly what I was looking for; a nice easy way to do laundry inside my apartment without having to walk and pay at the laundromat.
Update:
I used it for a few days and realized that the washer wasn't spinning the way it was supposed to, which I noticed a few other people had mentioned in their reviews. I did some digging into the machine and I found the issue, the belt inside the machine was not on all the way. I put the belt on and tightened all of the nuts and bolts to make sure nothing else could come undone. Hasn't had an issue since and all I had to do was remove the back panel.
