Russell Hobbs Washing Machine = Clean Clothes In 12 Minutes

The laundry machine has evolved a bit over the years, but not too much.  The washer basically tumbles your clothes with soap and water.  Sure they have changed from top-loaders to front-loaders, sure they spin faster, but other than that, same old shite.
