Open the Dryer Bay Door, HAL
Posted by Patrick on Monday, December 04, 2006
Last night under cover of darkness, a delivery truck rolled some space aged equipment up to our new place. Uniformed delivery men spent almost an hour plugging this equipment* into our home. Then, as quickly as they arrived, they sped off into the North Carolina night.
When Kate and I went upstairs to check it out, we saw that they had left a washer and dryer that could only have come from the future! The four computers currently at my desk have nowhere near the processing power of these machines.
From what I've learned, appliance lovers are all about the front-loadedness of these machines. It is pretty nice being able to see the dance of the dirty socks in action.
There are so many buttons on these machines. I believe they may be capable of cloning single-replacement-socks out of your own dryer lint. I'll need to check the users guide on it.
Here's a short clip of Kate running the washer for the first time.
They're pretty sweet, although Zoe was looking to pick a fight with the washer when it entered the spin cycle. They're also Energy Star machines, which is nice because I think Kate did a dozen or so loads today.
