　　这款新型的Coton便携式洗衣机由中国的海尔公司生产，大小与一个电动剃须刀相等，可以清洗从灰尘到让人头痛的红酒渍等各种污垢。

　　该设备使用三节AAA电池，旨在解决人们因为咖啡渍、青草汁、油渍等恼人的污点长时间在干洗店等待的情况。

　　The device, created by AQUA (a subsidiary of Haier Group in China), is already flying off the shelvesin Japan where it costs 10,800 Yen or £60.

　　该产品由 AQUA (中国海尔集团的分公司)创造，已经在日本被抢购一空，售价为10800日元(折合60英镑)。

　　这款包售价41英镑，看上去和普通帆布包毫无二致，由防水材料制成，内里包含一个柔韧的、可以洗涤脏污的洗衣板。

　　When three litres of water, liquid soap, and dirty washing are added to the bag, a user has tosimply fold and fasten it closed, and rub it to clean the clothes inside.
