7X Robotics opens orders for a $1,499 home laundry-folding robot

According to a post on X by @7Xrobotics, the company has opened orders for a home laundry-folding robot priced at $1,499. The company says the fully autonomous robot folds and stacks clothes, takes up 32 by 16 inches when idle, draws 50W, and ships worldwide in two boxes. In a demo, it folded a 27-piece load in 37 minutes, about 44 items an hour. These are the company's own claims as described in the post.

AI-assisted summary based on the listed source.

7X Robotics says its fully autonomous robot folds and stacks clothes, takes up 32 by 16 inches when idle, draws 50W and ships worldwide in two boxes. A demo shows it folding a 27-piece load in 37 minutes, about 44 items an hour. Why it matters: A sub-$1,500 folding robot would put a long-promised household chore...

If the price and performance hold up, a sub-$1,500 folding robot would put a long-promised household chore robot within reach of ordinary homes. Buyers should watch for independent tests of real-world folding speed and for delivery timelines on worldwide shipping. Home robotics builders and investors may also watch whether rivals respond with similar pricing.

Hardware and robotics watchers may want to track whether this becomes a product, benchmark, or deployment signal.
