If you couldn’t tell from my previous post 11 Ways to Make Doing Laundry Less Dreadful, I really dislike doing laundry. From dragging clothes up and down steps to having to wait around to switch over loads from the washer to dryer, the whole thing is just no fun.
I recently stumbled across this amazing “iBasket” concept by designer Guopeng Liang. While this is only a concept, I definitely think Guopeng has a great idea that could certainly make this commonly hated household chore a bit more tolerable.
The iBasket is a hamper, washer and dryer all in one. Cool, right?
Here is the product description:
iBasket combines washing machine and laundry hamper. Take off your daily clothes, leave them inside and let iBasket do the rest. Its nice transparent body allows you to see through. It removes odors by sucking in fresh air. When clothes accumulate to a certain amount, it automatically starts washing. There’s no need to push a single button. iBasket uses electrolytic water (zero detergent) to clean and kill bacteria. Once a cycle is done, the Wi-Fi connected basket will send a message to your PC or mobile. iBasket makes cloth-cleaning an unattended operation, saving time and energy for students and hard-working talents to enjoy their weekends.
According to Guepeng it was designed for the “Internet Generation.” Here is an illustration demonstrating how it would work:

What about laundry detergent it’s just being rinsed by water ?
Where does the water come from?
I believe it’s like a Keurig where there’s a water tank that needs to be filled occasionally in the base.
I would love something like this! We currently have a hand crank washer and plug in centrifuge dryer because our apartment does not have the capability to have a washer and dryer in the apartment. However, this typically means we have a huge stack of laundry by the weekend and end up going to the laundromat. This type of Imachine would be amazing to have! My only concern would be the draining aspect; would there be a separate reservoir that needs to be emptied or would it need to be attached to some type of drain all the time?
That is a great question. At this time it seems like this is only a concept.
Concepts aren’t inventions. Most aren’t original ideas. The real value and work is in actualizing a dream.
This is a brilliant concept. I would definately install this in my home! I hope it is available on the market soon!
i agree
This is the best invention ever! please put it out on the market!!!
i need one of these in my life
Looks like its good for 1 person. Will it come with capacity for a family? Its about time someone at leadt tried to up date doing laundry!!!!
