The waterproof bag has a transparent window to allow you to see how much water and detergent you are adding to your laundry. Once it's filled up, close the bag and get rid of excess air with a valve on the side. Now its time to wash.
The "nodules" inside the bag act as a flexible, modern washboard. All you have to do is rub the bag, and in doing so you brush the nodules against each other, causing friction and creating the scrubbing action needed to get out the stains. After 30 seconds, the clothes have had a quick wash, but after three minutes, the company says your fabrics will be as clean as if they were put through a washing machine. Next, a quick rinse will remove the excess detergent and soiled water, and all you need to do now is to hang the clothes to dry.

Over 120 Amazon customers have tried this functional small bag and gave ratings of four out of five stars overall. One of the customers said that Scrubba helped cleaning workout clothes on a business trip: "I no longer have to pack so much stuff because this is handy, cheaper than hotel cleaners, plus safe/gentler on clothes than coin machines."
While another reviewer said: "I seriously had fun cleaning my delicates. Rolling this little guy around on the floor was a blast!" Beau Chevassus, a top-ranked Amazon reviewer, even made a Youtube video in which he used the Scrubba to clean a towel stained with Nutella. He gave the bag five stars.

As reported on TechInsider, the only negative reviews they got are from people who didn't buy the product or mention the air valve breaking or cracking, a design flaw that most recent reviewers seemed to have escaped, as review from December 2015 mentioned that the product had an "'improved' air valve."
The bag is sold for USD 50 at Amazon. It is a price too high for such a small bag, but when considering the practicality of a portable washer, the time and electricity, and the spare change from the coin launders on your trips, it actually seems like a solid investment.
