Washing Box Concept Lets You Do Laundry Most Anywhere

Steam cleaning of clothes isn’t really anything new, but with this exciting concept, it’s about to get a whole lot easier. It’s called the Washing Box, and it’ll make short work out of your clothes.

Just take your dirty clothes, put them in the Washing Box, set some simple touchscreen controls and allow steam to clean your clothes in the box, which mounts on your wall and is roughly the size of a plasma television.

Looking at this thing, which you can see above, poses interesting questions like: “Where does the dirt go? It sure doesn’t evaporate!” “How many shirts can you reasonably fit in that thing at one time, anyway?” And of course, my personal favorite, “Why not just buy a washer in the first place?”

Of course, there’s some sensible application here–it’s great for people who don’t have many clothes or don’t mind washing their clothes fresh every day or even don’t have a lot of room for a washing machine–but I can’t help but look at this thing and think, you know, maybe this wouldn’t work out so well, especially matched against what we already have. But still, it’s an interesting idea that may be the start of something great.
