Foldimate laundry folding robot 

the problem is that the user still has the stand there and feed every single item to the machine. The person still has to interact with the machine instead of give it a basket of laundry/clothes and then leave for it to be sorted and folded.

This is really cool. Long term recommendation: integrated washer, dryer, foldimate. Full lifecycle solution - BOOM

I remembered when I was young I've always wanted to invent this, this is amazing

For commercial use this can work, for personal use it’s just a novelty. It doesn’t really free up much time, since you can fold it by hand faster and you still have to stand there feeding it one item at a time. If it could handle a basket of clothes, then it would be a timesaver and people would want it for their homes :) I’m guessing that’s the plan?

Perfect machine for *clothing stores and laundry* services. Looks like more and more things are automated to the point, where we can invent very complex and impossible activities to automate.

Awesome innovation... Its really tough to build such a product but may be they could have made it a bit small in size...

Yeah, I would definitely stand in front of a machine cheering for my clothes to be folded.

Does the foldimate machine iron the clothes it folds?. If it irons and folds at the same time then it's a massive game changer and it's taking my laundry game to the next level, super stress free and lots of time saved which can be repurposed to do something more productive or just rest.

Excellent item for me ....I just loved this concept indeed 😍

No ironing? What's the point if they're wrinkled?

people keep saying this is useless cuz you have to stand next to it and feed it clothes . if you don't like the sight of awkwardly folded laundry and you can't seem to do it right yourself the first time this is a godsend. Sometimes I'll spend like 3 whole minutes on one shirt which doesn't sound like a lot but when you consider that a better person can fold a shirt in less than 5 Seconds it's an eternity. . and if the wrinkled throw them in the dryer to get the wrinkles out then immediately put them in the folding machine why would you let your clothes wrinkle before you tried folding them anyway if you did you would have to iron them yourself and then fold them taking up way too much time you could just be responsible and fold them as soon as they get out of dryer.

Omg I want this! This video is two years old, why isn’t it out on the market?

I hope they will make a semi industrial model for my laundry business!! Great idea for mexican market!

Unless you also develop and autofeed system so I don't end up having to stand there anyway, forget it.

As a work from home mom and kids to take care off, I need anything that can make my work easier. Dishwasher, washer, dryer, cloth folder. I need this in my home

We're almost in 2020, no foldimate in sales. I would expect for makers, to produce single machine, laundry+ironing+folding.

Would be nice if it could iron shirts while folding

Such an Excellent technology 😀..... I'll feel happy to buy it...... It saves lot of Time and Energy....👌👍

Can't wait for foldimate to come out. It will be awesome

This video was 2 years ago and it’s still on preorder ... does anyone know an actual release date?

Living the dream!!!

Just throw your washed clothes in a pile and take from that pile what u want to wear.

This is a dream come true. I'm hoping laundromats will purchase as an additional service to be coin operated.

Just to add steam iron and is the best machine ! Good job

*The real innovation will be the one, where you get back home and before you jump in the bathtub or shower, just chuck your clothes in the machine that will wash, dry, steam iron and fold those clothes while you relax and freshen up*

What I really need is a machine that will find all my socks, separate them into pairs and them fold them together, for that I would pay a million.

Great invention. You solved the hardest part of making a folding machine. Doesn't it defeat the purpose that you have to load each item, then wait for the machine to take it in. I could basically fold the item myself in that time. IMO it'd be better if you could load all the clothes on a clothing rack or something similar which would slowly roll into the receiving belt.

Some things: - Folding by hand is still faster, as you need to stand there and feed the damn machine things to fold. - Since it's a machine, well... maintenance issues... - Don't get me started about how it will treat different materials beyond 6 months of usage

For a business owner this could be a valuable tool, having the appearance of uniform folded merchandise is a goal for every apparel retail store. Also it has the potential to reduce labor cost, by boosting productivity. I would invest in this company, as most major retail chains are turning to automation to achieve results.

The best product would be one that is not as bulky and fits onto the front or side of the dryer and senses when the dryer is done. Then the dryer has a setting where it will continue to spin and feed clothes to the folder until all the clothes have been folded and basketed. Boom! The consumer never has to touch anything after they load the dryer!

This is a very good invention. Much needed... I am interested in buying with its released in the USA.

This would be good for manufacturers, but they probably already have something like this for mass packaging of mainly mens business shirts in packaging - maybe not but looks prettty expensive for a family usage only. Germany is big on automation & they might already have one.

Got some of those... Their called the kids😅😂😂

This is for lazy people, I need one

Great concept, but it wouldn’t work for me bc the worse part of folding is untangling the clothes and getting them to the stage that the foldi need them in before it goes in the machine. By the time I get the pants or shirt to that stage just a couple steps and you’re done. Also I sit down and watch tv while folding. I’d hate standing in front of a machine loading it one by one. That’s even if the machine folds everything perfect which I kinda doubt it does.

Does it steam-heat the items to ensure they're ironed🤔

pls add Indian Clothing also ! like Kurta and Sarees, this will boost your sale also !

This is awesome! If it can save me over 10 seconds per garment it'll definitely pay for itself over the long run in the amount of time it'll save me. #timeismoney

Still we have to put clothes on it. How about the one that can wash, dry, iron and fold in a process? That must be great

If machine create problem then how to possible to resolve it ? is this any kind of service provide from your side ?

I’m waiting for this machine~

I'd hire a maid. Support your local human!😝

Does this do ironing as well?

Now that's a printer worth buying ! :-)

U still need to stand and feed each clothing into the machine.. Smart but not too smart.

Shut up and take my money!!!!!

I think we’ve all this idea …a “folding machine” im glad someone is working on it lol

*Perfect present for Mom!*

Yah still have to waste time feeding the clothing. Now when they make it feed itself from a basket that's when it will be worth it

with a folding board it would take less time, this is the very definition of over engineered. It's inelegant and actually winds up taking more effort.

Nice but does it iron the clothes as well?

I would like to get one of this as long as the price is comparable to the washer or dry or cheaper!

So glad that this company not only has developed this product, but that it is still in business 5 years later. Folding laundry is an absolute time waster for so many people. In our 2 people household alone we spend 40 minutes a week folding laundry. That's 17 hours a year per person. Over the US population alone, this represents 5.2 billion hours wasted on this task alone. I know this machine is not perfect, the end goal really is to have the dryer automatically dump clothes into the folder, which then spits them out folded, but it's progress in the right direction, especially considering the price point. Going back to the wasted time, 5.2B hours is close to 600'000 years, or more than _7000 lifetimes_ . Every year. This kind of development is literally saving lives.

Wow! So much work to solve a mild inconvenience.

Is it only folding or folding with ironing?

Sir this machine is only folding ? Or Ironing and folding? Pls answer sir

1st world problems 💯🤣

I want to dump a big basket full of clothes and get it folded and ironed automatically.....this machine sucks

If it can dry clothes , steam, starch, and make the clothes smell good then it’s worth it. That would replace the dryer and ironing. Also if it’s low to the ground no old lady that can pay for it will get it. It needs a pedestal like washers and dryers have

Its nice invention and saved timing in our fast life. Can u send me video and price.

I have a high quality folding machine that I made myself. All it takes is a simple command input and the job is done quickly and effectively! I don't have to hand deliver each item of laundry flat and ready to fold either! I just plop them in a chair and call her out of her room & say, "Take care of this, then you can have your phone back." I'm still trying to work out the kinks, the eye roll is a just a small hiccup, but still annoying. But overall I'm happy with my creation.

I am very disappointed by the result of 2 years of promises that lead to a most banal result. Initially, foldimate proposed to hang all your clothes on the machine, they were then ironed and folded, now the ironing has disappeared, you are standing in front of the machine to put your clothes one by one. Frankly, almost all the crowdfunding I've been involved in has been very disappointing and even scams, obviously foldimate has been looking for funds without knowing if what they were announcing had any chance of being achievable.

A MASSIVE TIME SAVER for me !

Because when they didn’t send you more immediately, people were discovering that running a print head clean in the printer settings miraculously restored about half the ink level despite using ink in the process. This was leading to people using the same ink cartridges until they genuinely did run out of ink, rather than when the exposed print heads dried over and the computer tells you it’s “empty”.

This is lame, i will still need to load 1 piece of clothing at a time. Good start, but useless

the one Sheldon uses inTBBT is actually pretty good

Fantastic. I’m on the wait list.

It's ironning or folding only.?

Is also ironing the cloths or only folding

Well now it's 2020. When are they coming out?

I need to invest in this by throwing inshirts, inpants and insweaters

It’s missing one part. You should be able to just dump the landry basket when it’s dry and walk away. I don’t think it’s worth it if I have to stand in front of the machine and load each shirt. I can fold clothes in the same amount of time.

Does it iron the cloth?

From where it can be brought.? Yes I am an interested person to buy it.

Does it iron the clothes too?

Ironically enough, Foldimate folded in 2021 and declared bankruptcy.

Wow i want this in the future

It's really cool that someone is tackling this problem but it's folding just as fast as I am and requires manual feeding. So what are we gaining

Can we make pressing or iron to cloth on this machine

Does the machine just bend or pass too?

It will be fine for a large 10%'er family with lots of kids if it costs under $800. Since there are so many parts I can just imagine the problems.

Is it only folding or laundry+folding both??

WHAT COMPANY MAKE IT ?

That's fantastic. I'm interested.

Laziness just hit an all-time high

How does it do with socks or towels? 🤔

This machine available in market now ?

Do you have the Price of this Machine? Is it available in Asia Pacific or in Southeast Asia to be exact.

I have a person I pay to do this. They also clean the rest of the house. Probably one of the best inventions ever.

I’m not finding any were.plz tell tell me we’re it available at USA in Texas state Dallas

I run a laundromat in Australia I would like to know cost of machine and the weather it can be shipped here and if it breaks down can it be fixed here the total cost being in Australia money regards Megan thankyou

Let me know when you have a machine that perfectly folds fitted sheets

this is amazing!!!

I love this Foldimate machine, could you tell me ? How I will purchase? I am from India, please guide me.

Could you please make a machine that loads laundry on the laundry folding machine

This is ironing machine or only the folding machine

U can fold clothes by hands much faster than it takes to feed the machine

One day, it will be put all the laundry and comes out clean and folded with just one button push. But for now, this is great

I have no problem folding any item the only thing I hate folding are fitted sheets. Martha Stewart has the ideal way to fold them I still can't figure out how she does it

i want to know is this product available in india and is there any services available in india if i faced an problem with this product
