Something that was once heavily talked (and criticized) about around the early 2000s but quickly dwindled from the public's eye after that.
Almost nobody remembers the Dyson washing machine (CR01, CR02 and CR03) anymore, that is unless you randomly happen to stumble upon it by chance and all the memories start flushing back. And if you do remember, it was honestly quite ahead of its time. It really feels more like a futuristic tech you'd expect to see today than back in the early 2000s.
Hell, now that I think about it, the dyson washing machines are a MUCH more better and useful concept than those lousy ‘smart’ washing machines today.
Yes, the complexity of the contra rotating drum mechanism would be a central problem to the machine, however to be quite frank, to think it would fail more than a conventional single drum washer would be ridiculous. Perhaps a bit more feasible now considering the age of the existing machines still around, but def not possible back in 2002.
But overall, the pros of the dyson washing machine heavily overshadows the concerns. I would LOVE to have a contra rotating drum, where I could wash my clothes faster than what’s possible even with current washers. I honestly hope the contra rotating drum system can make a comeback in the 2020s. Just note that if any major washing machine brand made a new one, it would prove far more capable and be more successful.

Kevin: Yeeee
Eric: Holy shit that was such a long time ago, I literally forgot about its existence until now.

Term used in the fire service to describe half ass washing the rig. Typically a Texarkana Wash involves half ass washing everything below the windows, only rinsing off the rear, and doing nothing to the front.
Firefighter 1: "Man we need to wash that pumper today as much as I don't want to"
Firefighter 2: "Let's put a Texarkana Wash on that bitch and call it good"

When a person pretends to wash his hands by passing them through a faucet stream akin to a person passing his hands through a flame without burning himself.
Wow...that guy just exited the stall and flame washed his hands before returning to work in the kitchen.
