It’s no mystery that washing your clothes with Clorox to sanitize your garments is probably one of the most toxic things we do in our homes. Besides being unhealthy, the toxins that remain in our clothes long after they leave the washer aren’t good for us.

If you've been waiting for a chance to use the power of silver to sterilize your laundry in cold water (and we know you have), Samsung has your number. The washer uses silver ions to sterilize laundry, and Samsung claims that it kills 99.9% of bacteria on clothing…without hot water!

Once this catches on, we suspect Samsung will release another version on us, which will use gold or platinum to wipe out the other 0.1% of bacteria and plate a metallic sheen to our clothes in the process.
