That's probably because you already have a robot that does 90% of your dish washing. A dishwasher.

But none of the loading and unloading yet, unfortunately.

Folding clothes is super hard:

We already have a robot that does 90% of the laundry too. Washing laundry by hand is a lot harder than washing dishes.

I agree though that folding clothes is a hard job to automate, as simple as it seems. And that I would love to have a robot that could do it!

Just get a $5-10 folding board makes folding a lot easier and faster.

Even without the dishwasher I'd still take a laundry machine. Our dishwasher broke a few weeks ago and I did the dishes by hand for a while. It wasn't that bad.
