In terms of the technicalities, it has a size of 6 liters, which is enough to hold 4 shirts at a time or 10 pieces of underwear. The way it functions is similar to a regular washing machine but on a much smaller scale. It spins soap water around the machine with the clothes instead of manual scrubbing. It is also able to [dehydrate or spin around dry clothing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zera-lab-launbot). At the bottom of the machine is a special drain valve that can easily remove used water without having to tip over the entire G-Soak. Portability is the focus when it comes to its design as it is able to be packed with luggage.
