This $800 machine claims to perfectly fold your laundry so you don't have to
Foldimate
The three-foot-high machine, which will set you back between $700 and $850, claims to perfectly fold your clothes as well as treat your items with steaming, perfuming, and sanitizing options.
To use FoldiMate, you simply clip your clothes to the outside of the machine, and as the machine rotates, each item is pulled in one by one to fold and treat.
Other than taking up space, the machine is said to be fairly quiet, making about the same amount of noise as a large printer, according to the company. And once the load is done, the bottom tray extends with a stack of clean, folded laundry.
FoldiMate
While the FoldiMate seems handy and could help speed up the laundry process, it can't replace traditional washers and dryers. It's specifically designed to fit on top of your normal washer.
And unlike manually folding your clothes, there is the chance for some technical difficulties. The company claims that there's less than a 1% chance that the machine "will do anything other than fold your laundry and treat your clothes," meaning there's less than a 1% chance it will accidentally rip your stuff.
Although it sounds like magic, the team at FoldiMate claim it's simply the result of really good engineering.
You can reserve your FoldiMate now, along with the nearly 80,000 other people who have already thrown their money at this laundry machine, but the company isn't expecting to ship the first units out until 2018.
