Toy-Washing Dishwasher

Filed under: Gadgets

There seems to be no point at which appliances can be too specialized and Bosch must have been thinking about ways to appeal to various niche markets of dishwasher buyers when they hit up on this idea. The Lego Edition Bosch dishwasher was developed with the toy company and is the first dishwasher that is completely toy-safe. Toys, often made of relatively thin plastic, are too delicate for the heat of most wash cycles, but a cold cycle, even with soap, is not enough to kill any germs even when dirt is washed away. This model solves both problems with a special 40°C washing cycle that will not melt the toys, but is hot enough to kill any germs on them. It also comes with a special tray to hold smaller objects, like Lego bricks, to prevent them from falling during the wash cycle. Price: $1,136.
