This new machine that folds your laundry is quite possibly the best invention ever

It will be a godsend for anyone who hates housework.

One of the worst things about adulting is dealing with all your laundry. Let’s face it, folding clothes is a pain in the rear end, especially when there are a million other things you would prefer to be doing.

However, all of our lazy prayers have been answered thanks to this machine that folds your laundry for you.

The new and improved FoldiMate was unveiled at this year’s CES tech show in Las Vegas. All you do is clip in your washing and the machine neatly folds and stacks it.

It looks like a pretty hefty piece of kit, but that’s probably because it has the capacity to fold a full machine load of washing in under four minutes. Not only that, but we’d put good money on the clothes coming out a lot neater than if you did it yourself.

It makes about the same amount of noise as the average dishwasher, and considering how fast it runs, that’s unlikely to cause too much of an annoyance.

When you were a child imagining what the future of technology would hold, chances are you thought flying cars and hoverboards, not laundry-folding machines.
