Robots that fold laundry
Among the 50 robots we track, no robot available to order now is claimed by its maker to fold laundry on its own. 1X NEO, Tesla Optimus, Figure 03 and LG CLOiD have only claimed it or shown it in demos, not as something the robot sold today does on its own.

"Sold robot does it, per maker" means the maker says the robot sold today does this without a remote operator. A demo video is not a shipping capability. How we verify. Checked Oct 24, 2026.
What counts as "fold laundry" here
We mark folding laundry, not washing or drying. A maker video of a robot folding towels counts as a demo until the robot that folds is one you can buy. Folding that a remote operator performs during a scheduled session is marked as done with a person driving, even if the maker calls it a feature.
What to ask before you buy a robot to fold laundry
- Does it fold from a mixed pile, or only from items you hand it one at a time?
- Which fabrics and sizes does the maker say it handles: towels, shirts, fitted sheets?
- Is folding done on its own, or by a remote operator during a scheduled session?
- How long does one load take in the maker's own video, and is that video sped up?
