patsylabrador Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Have you seen this? I love it! If money was not an issue and I hated folding I would get one but as it is money IS an issue and I like folding. Also it's quite big. link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat tails Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Brilliant! If only it would also iron.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WitchHazel Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 Hmm, made me chuckle. I'm sure we've all sat round as a family, folding the washing, haven't we?? (not). Did you watch the next video, where the CEO was launching the product? Not that you could see it because there was a pop-up within the video blocking it. His aim is to save marriages. I love automation and, as long as it saves me time, I don't mind if the automation is slower than me. Roomba is a good example. But this? Honestly, it tooklonger to hang the items on the ENORMOUS machine than it does to fold them by hand. And it can only do a few items in one go. If it was a box woth a lid where you could chuck the items in, in a pile, and they came out sorted, folded and pressed, then it might be worth it.

Olly Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 I bet the neatly folded piles STILL sit on the bottom of the stairs waiting for someone to put them away! Hilarious. By the time you'd hung all those things on hangers you might as well have folded them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gavclojak Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Naa. I'm one of those odd people who loves ironing.. Funny that....my mum says the same but has never offered to help me out with the one job I detest, even with three young kids she used to say "I don't understand how you don't have time, I simply love ironing!!" Nuff said Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackrocksrock Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 I iron nothing. Things that need ironing get short time in drier then hung up end of story. When they are steamy they hang and the creases fall out. Hangers right into the wardrobe when dry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soapdragon Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Patsy Labrador......if you love folding did you ever work at Benetton? You don't see Benetton around anymore with all those lovely stacks of folded jumpers and t shirts but there used to be one just down the road from me in South Kensington when I lived in London and I loved going in and unfolding all those nice neat piles...oh happy days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
