may be the biggest hurdle. The Super section has an article on these posted yesterday as well. Lower energy use, faster drying times, sounds promising. My Dad had told me back in the 80's Whirlpool was testing ultrasonic washers. |

I remember seeing a movie, yes movie on 16mm reel to reel, in 8th grade science class where they were showing GE's kitchen of the future. In the film GE was experimenting with an ultrasonic dishwasher as well as clothes washing.
Their innovation at that time for clothes drying was the use of microwaves. I would think one could see the dangers of overheated metal zippers being zapped by microwaves; maybe that's why we never saw that technology in real life.
