The Future Is Now: A Robot to Fold Your Laundry

Featured in Ripley's Believe It or Not!

MINI BELIEVE IT OR NOT –

A company called FoldiMate has invented a machine to tackle one of the most hated chores: Folding Laundry!

Dubbed “Your Laundry Folding Friend,” the machine handles most of your folding needs
It easily folds items like shirts, pants, and towels, but it doesn’t fold small items like socks are larger items like bed sheets
You clip the item you want to be folded to the clips, tell the machine what it is, and then sit back while it does the rest
The machine even steams clothes to get out wrinkles and perfumes them
The entire process takes roughly 45 seconds
The FoldiMate robot will be available in 2018, but preorders are being taken now



MINI BION
“BIONs” – short for Believe It or Not – is the word we use at Ripley’s to refer to anything that is unbelievable and worthy to become part of Ripley’s lore and collection.
