This Rs 3-Crore Japanese Human Washing Machine Cleans You In Just 15 Minutes: Watch How It Works
If you're short on time or looking for a way to conserve water, Japan may have just the solution. A new machine now washes a person much like a washing machine washes clothes. What was once just a concept has finally become real, and the Internet can't stop talking about it. The “Human Washing Machine" looks unusual and, of course, it has gained attention on social media. Despite its strange name, the device is completely safe.
There's no rotating drum or spinning mechanism inside. A person simply lies down in the pod, closes the cover, and lets the system take care of the rest. Soft music plays during the cleaning process, making the experience relaxing. Created by the Japanese company Science, the device is inspired by an early model displayed at the 1970 World Expo in Osaka, now modernised with advanced features.
How Does Japan's Human Washing Machine Work?
The process begins when the user steps into the pod. Once inside, the system releases water and soap into the enclosed space. A screen then lights up, filling the cabin with calming music and visuals to create a relaxing atmosphere. The machine starts the cleaning cycle using tiny water bubbles that gently remove dirt from the skin. After the wash, the device dries the user from head to toe. When the full cycle is complete, the door opens, allowing the person to step out feeling clean and refreshed.
Each machine comes with a steep price tag of around 60 million yen (approximately Rs 3 lakh). Because of the cost, only about 50 units will be produced. They are primarily intended for luxury hotels and high-end spas that can afford such an expensive device.

‘Finally, Someone Invented This On Days I'm Just Too Tired'
Reacting to the post, a user wrote, “We got a Jetsons bath, before GTA 6."
Another shared, “Might as well go on ahead and add this to the next final final destination franchise."
“This is quite revolutionary for the elderly and people with reduced mobility," a comment read.
An individual stated, “Every company needs this in the employee bathroom because some of my old colleagues needed it."
Another mentioned, “I pod that closes around me and then fills with water does not sound relaxing. It sounds like a nightmare."
One more added, “Finally someone invented this on days I'm just too tired to even shower right after my long event nights."
A Childhood Memory That Sparked The Idea

According to the company, the idea for this machine goes back many years. When founder Yasuaki Aoyama was a young boy, he saw an early version of the device at the 1970 Osaka Expo. From that moment on, he dreamed of turning it into a real product. Decades later, when his daughter developed skin problems, he began searching for a way to clean the body without rubbing the skin. During that search, he discovered the potential of ultra-tiny bubbles known as fine bubbles.
The updated machine uses these fine bubbles to gently coat the skin while built-in sensors monitor the user's heart rate and stress levels. The team behind the device says their goal is for people to feel calm, relaxed, and refreshed, not just clean.
