Not often that I have appliance envy, but I do. This is something that is a year or two old in Japan already and pretty freakin’ neat. Basically it’s a washer/dryer that works like a dishwasher would: first washes and then dries that same load of laundry, all in the same compact sized bin. Meanwhile Americans finally decided to design a paint can that has a drip free spout and a twist off cap. And people wonder why we’re not always ahead of the innovation curve.
This is not a new thing. I first saw something like this in a appliance store 10 years ago. They called it a “clothing processor”. I’ve always wondered why they never caught on, it being such a way-cool idea.
Really? Someone’s marketing department musta screwed the pooch then… this is a great thing for ppl in apartments (or with 2 flights of stairs in condos!)
