A washing machine that doesn't use soap

Haier has announced a washing machine that doesn't need soap. It separates water into its OH- and H+ ions to perform the cleaning. The OH- binds to dirt and stain molecules, and the H+ sterilizes the clothes. So there is no need for detergent. Just water and electricity.

This could be really nice for people like me who are always forgetting to buy detergent. And when I do remember to buy it, I'm never sure what kind to buy. I get to the store and look at all of the different kinds, all claiming improved, better or advanced cleaning, and I don't know what to think. So I end up randomly picking one that isn't too cheap but also isn't too expensive. The theory being that the expensive ones are probably overpriced, but the cheap ones probably don't work well. Chances are that there isn't any real difference, and I'm just deluding myself in picking one.

If I had this washer, I wouldn't have to worry about it. I could just throw my clothes in and get back to the more important things in life. Like posting to this blog.
