Is there a robot that can fold laundry?
Not yet
Not one you can buy and put to work today. 1X shows laundry on its NEO page, but NEO is a pre-order. Open two-arm robots can learn to fold from your demos, with a lot of practice.

1X calls it early access. It has basic autonomy, and a 1X expert can guide it remotely through chores it doesn't know yet.

XLeRobot, ALOHA and SO-101 builds don't fold laundry out of the box. You teleoperate them to record demos, then train a policy on those demos.
