Laundry day sucks. And while we don't yet have robots that can actually do our laundry for us (well, WE don't, anyway), LG might have come up with the next best thing: a smart cabinet that can "refresh" your nasty, dirty clothes for you.
It's called the LG Styler Black Tinted Mirror Glass Door, and it's essentially a freestanding wardrobe with a built-in steamer and hangers that automatically move around to de-wrinkle your clothes.

Moving hangers shake out offensive odors while hot air is pumped in to keep clothes dry and wrinkle-free.

LG says its vision is to combine the Styler with its washing machines and dryer to create a kind of "ultimate laundry room," but let's be real: If you're going to shell out the cash for this thing, it's because you're trying to do lesslaundry, not more.
The company has offered a version of the Styler for a few years now, but this latest variation has a slightly updated look. Besides the new black color, LG also showed off a concept for a larger family-size version, which can "refresh" up to six items — five on hangers and a pair of pants in the door — simultaneously. It also has a smart mirror built directly into the closet door so you can virtually try on clothes.
There's no word yet on potential price or availability for the new Styler, but previous models have been about $2,000. Expect it to be pricey. After all, that sweet laundry avoidance isn't cheap.
