Super washing machine/dryer combination?

Question

Is there currently any technological unit with capabilities to let you basically do everything in one motion?

For example have a giant bin where you can load ALL dirty clothes. Then the machine would automatically move those into another part of the unit where it would wash them..then when there done it would move those into another unit for drying. Then when that's done it'll obviously go back and move the ones in the bin into washing machine. THen when the dryer section is done it would pull them into the universal "Done" bin where you could retrieve them and fold them as needed?

Basically the cycle would continue BUT the washing machine part would only get clothes pulled into it if there were enough clothes in the open bin to meet the minimum quota requirements for a "Full" load. That would make the whole "Clothing" process really easy. You could just save your dirty clothes and dump them ALL in the bin and it deals with the rest. Do they have anything like that out there?

Answer 1

That sounds great, but it sounds like you are lazy and don't like doing laundry.

They do make machines that wash and dry without you removing the clothing. They don't sort them, fold them or measure how full the loads are, that's up to you.

Answer 2

Sure.  Look up Rube Goldberg.  I think he had one of those.

Answer 3

I don't believe there is anything that will do that. I would go a bit further and have the machine fold too. That is the part that I like the least.
