Got $499.99 to spare, a burning hatred for going to the dry cleaner, and a wall outlet in your closet? You might be the target audience for the SWASH™ Express Clothing Care System, now available for pre-order exclusively at Bloomingdale's for a limited time.
While the SWASH System kind of looks like a teleportation device, but it's actually used to "conveniently refresh dresses, suits, sweaters, and more at home between dry cleanings." At $499.99, it doesn't technically clean clothes, just makes them smell nice and removes light wrinkles. It works in about 10 minutes, and runs on single-use SWASH PODS, which you'll have to stock up on to make this thing work. For the rest of us, an iron and a bottle of Febreze will have to suffice.
