YouTuber's $1,100 Laundry Chair Solves the Clothing Pile
Viral inventor Simone Giertz turned her "half-dirty clothes" problem into a $1,100 chair that actually works when covered in laundry. The Laundry Chair features a rotating rail that lets clothes breathe while keeping your seat usable.
If you've ever walked past a chair buried under clothes that are too clean to wash but too worn to put away, one inventor just built the solution you didn't know you needed.
YouTuber Simone Giertz launched a Kickstarter campaign for her Laundry Chair, a $1,100 piece of furniture designed specifically for that pile of semi-worn clothing most of us pretend doesn't exist. The chair features a rotating rail mounted on a ball-bearing Lazy Susan that swivels around the seat, letting you hang clothes without losing access to the armrests or cushion.
"I made the Laundry Chair because I was tired of staring at my pile of half-dirty clothes," Giertz said. "So I decided to make a chair that's actually built for the job."
The design does more than acknowledge our messy habits. The rotating rail helps clothes breathe better than when crumpled in a pile, reducing moisture, wrinkles, and odors. You can swing the rail to easily add clothes, then rotate them behind the backrest to hide the mess from view.
Giertz first built a prototype for a YouTube video in 2024 before deciding to bring it to market through her Yetch product brand. The chair comes with a solid hardwood frame and green cotton corduroy upholstery, with a second color option planned for the future.
Early Kickstarter backers can save up to $200 on the purchase price, with deliveries expected in November 2026. The campaign notes that washing clothes after every single wear actually breaks them down faster, making this chair a practical solution for extending garment life.
Why This Inspires
Sometimes the best innovations come from embracing our real habits instead of fighting them. Giertz turned a common frustration into a functional design that solves an actual problem millions of people face daily.
The Laundry Chair joins other rotating furniture solutions from Giertz, including a coffee table that doubles as an ottoman. Her Yetch webstore already sells clothes hangers designed to fit into shallow spaces, showing her commitment to making life easier through thoughtful design.
No pretending you'll deal with it later, no unusable furniture, just a simple solution that works with how people actually live.
