The "green" washing machine may revolutionize households in the near future.

Although science and technology have developed strongly in recent years and the quality of life in general has increased significantly, many places in the world still face basic daily difficulties.

A concrete example is washing and drying clothes. Using automatic washing machines instead of manual labor is still a luxury in places where there is not an abundant water source or enough electricity to run them.

GiraDora models also come in a variety of color options.

Washing clothes seems simple, but in fact it is a problem in many disadvantaged areas of the world.

In arid towns and villages far from water sources, laundry was indeed considered a time-consuming and laborious process, not to mention its long-term harmful effects on workers' health.

This strenuous work is responsible for a host of ailments such as tendonitis, chronic back pain, painful and dermatological problems in the hands, and especially asthma.

Because of the distance from clean water sources, each time people do laundry, they have to spend hours just to transport enough water for use. And according to research by a pair of students from Los Angeles, USA along with related organizations, people in the town of Lima, Peru with a population of up to 30,000, wash clothes on average 3 to 5 times a week.

Each wash can take up to 6 hours. Including water, hand washing, spinning and drying. So Alex Cabunoc and Ji A You, the researchers behind the research, invented GiraDora, a washing machine that uses no external power source and uses only 1/3 of the water compared to traditional hand washing.

GiraDora is a solution to support disadvantaged families.

Each wash with GiraDora only takes 3 to 5 minutes. GiraDora also has a built-in spin function. According to Mr. Cabunac: “People today spend too much time, energy and resources on the most basic and essential things in life. Cooking and washing now take up too much precious time, time that could be used for productive work to free themselves from poverty.”

Sự thành công và hữu dụng của GiraDora là cảm hứng cho nhiều phiên bản mới ra đời, trong đó có Up-Stream với giá chỉ 4 USD.
The success and usefulness of the GiraDora inspired many new versions, including the Up-Stream, which costs just $4.

Drumi là một phiên bản có kiểu dáng được
The Drumi is an urbanized version aimed at more affluent households. It costs $180 and is available for pre-order now. The company will start shipping the Drumi to homes in November 2016.

The price of a GiraDora is 40 USD (about 1 million VND) and is aimed at families with an income of 4 to 10 USD a day. Currently, the team is still testing new models and researching the needs in many regions of the world such as Africa, South America and India. Therefore, GiraDora is not officially sold to ordinary buyers.

Although the BMW has not yet been released, it promises to be a useful device for those looking for motivation to exercise.

If you are not in the above mentioned difficult group, you will have options for the general audience such as Drumi, BiWa and BWM

BiWa vẫn đang trong giai đoạn phát triển và có lẽ hướng đến đối tượng muốn tiết kiệm thời gian triệt để nhất, khi có thể giúp người dùng tập thể thao, giặt quần áo và đến chỗ làm tất cả cùng một lúc.
BiWa is still in development and is probably aimed at those who want to save time the most, as it can help users exercise, do laundry and go to work all at the same time.
