Wow this is really cool. I hadn't heard of it before, but I guess they could really come in handy. I've got a nice washer right now, but maybe I'll get one of these to put with my emergency food storage, http://www.thereadyproject.com, just in case. You can never be too careful!
I think I found something similar, I hope this helps.

Here's a link to Wonder Washer
http://www.laundry-alternative.com/products/Wonderwash.html
An option for using out on your patio or while camping, etc. is to use a large rubber maid type container with lid. Buy a NEW old fashioned plunger (those red rubber ones) and drill a hole in the lid of the container the size plus an itty bit of the plunger handle. Fill with water and soap then add some clothes and close the lid. Using the plunger, plunge approximately 200 times (kids love to help with this). Your clothes are nice and clean. Only problem is that you have to wring them out yourself or use a wringer. The only reason to use the lid is to eliminate the splashing and really plunge hard without creating a flood.

I like yours better i think than the ones the daughters have
thank you for posting this
I think this machine is a bit different than the other non-electric machines already posted:

They also have a counter top clothes dryer, but I haven't bought either yet. I was looking at them, considering buying them for hand laundry.
I was going to suggest making a special request on ebay, but it looks like you've got this one covered.

I found an electric washer with a steel basin at a boat swap meet. But wringing is a pain - where do you get wringers? (Oh, I saved my plastic tub from an old burned out plastic washing machines & it's great for rinsing!)
I'm not really sure what you are looking for, but you might try Lehman's. They advertise "products for simple, self-sufficient living." They do have a wringer washing machine. It's very expensive, but they might have something that would help you.
Hi Marilyn!!! Is this possibly the same Wonder Washer that you're speaking of? http://beprepared.com/product.asp?pn=MC+W100&name=Wonder+Washer I hope so!!!
