World's smallest washing machine unveiled in India is tinier than a Tamagotchi | Guinness World Records

This miniscule machine takes washing your smalls to a whole new level.

You’d be lucky to fit one sock inside the world’s smallest washing machine, never mind a pair.

Created by Sebin Saji (India), it measures a teeny tiny 32.5 x 33.6 x 38.7 mm (1.28 x 1.32 x 1.52 in).

His little appliance, that he unveiled in Kanjirapally, Kerala, India, on 19 April, is even smaller than a Tamagotchi.

And it weighs just 25 g, which is just slightly heavier than two OREO cookies.

Sebin said he set out to create his record-breaking machine as a way of fulfilling his dream to become “part of the Guinness World Records team”.

Welcome on board, Sebin!

To qualify for the title, he had to design and assemble the washing machine and then demonstrate it could run for a full cycle: wash, rinse and spin.

He needed to use special digital callipers to measure it.

Sebin is seen demonstrating his machine in a video, scooping up just a pinch of washing powder and pouring the water in before closing it up and setting it off.

A crowd had gathered to watch him show off his engineering skills, and applause broke out when the measurements were announced.

And while it may be completely impractical for getting your washing done, it’s a lot of fun!

The world’s smallest vacuum cleaner was also recently created in India, measuring just 0.65 cm (0.25 in) at its shortest axis.
