Wonder if there's a spin cycle. Ha.

All kinds of machine-assisted things do much more than you can with your own effort, without getting extreme. Constant slow brushing with no danger of ripping anything out, with constant pressure and suction interchanged, for like 20 minutes without stopping

This isn't the first machine from Japan to promise these things.

They're not human washing machines though.
