When we first saw Coway’s SWV-08AM we could’ve sworn it was part of a turntable. Turns out it’s a "megasonic" replacement for your faucet. Although Coway’s description summons images of exploding dishes/heads, it uses a much less destructive mechanism. This stainless steel gadget infuses tap water with sound waves to clean things like vegetables, flatware, and even pans while needing hardly any detergent. The trick lies in the 1.6MHz frequency emitted from the device. When paired with the regular water coming through the faucet, it creates (and pops) microscopic cavitation bubbles which break up and lift off dirt. It’s certainly a nifty gadget for the kitchen, but I think we’re going to hold out for an automaton that just does the dishes for us.
