Oliver Blackwell’s WashDryIron.

By Alex in Everything Else, Home & Garden on Feb 14, 2006 at 3:22 pm

Oliver is a student at the University of Plymouth who thought up this chore-busting idea for his final degree project.

The machine washes, dries and irons clothes in separate compartments and is said to eliminate colour runs, shrinkage and ironing.

It can tackle up to 16 items at a time, including king-size bed sheets.

Because hangers are used, they do not become entangled and have 83% fewer creases, according to the designer. The items are then dried and ironed by hot air blown across them.

It’s what housewives really want for Valentine’s: Link

Neat stuff from the NeatoShop:

Oliver – What a FANTASTIC invention. I hve never understood why it has been possible to send man to the moon, but he/she still has do the ironing. In this age of technology, WHY has someone not come up with this before? I will certainly buy one as soon as they are available – PLEASE KEEP IN THE NEWS SO THAT WE KNOW WHEN AND WHERE OE CAN BE BOUGHT. Just one thing – does it take liquid detergent? I am not able to use powder in my washing machine as the long pipe in the garaage that the water is expelled through gets clogged with poweder over time.

If this machine works and works well, giving just pressed ironing results, you bea millionaire!!
