We're inching closer to the possibility of a household fit for The Jetsons.

We have robots to clean our floors, car services at the swipe of a finger and kitchen gadgets that text us when it's time to buy milk. With all this tech to help navigate our everyday lives, it's almost impossible to imagine there was a point in time when people did things the old-fashioned way.

If you hate cleaning and daily chores, then you're in luck: There are countless nifty gadgets, apps and services to revolutionize the way we accomplish these tedious tasks and in a fraction of the time. Below, we've compiled a list of the coolest and most technologically advanced gadgets and gizmos to lessen the burden of your everyday chores.

What's your least favorite chore? Laundry? Grocery shopping? Doing the dishes? Whatever it is, there's a handy appliance or device that can cut the time in half. Below are a few that are pretty remarkable.

For laundry and dry cleaning: SWASH Express Clothing Care System

Instead of trekking to the dry cleaners or unearthing your unwieldy ironing board from the depths of the closet, the SWASH clothing care system promises to restore your clothes in as little as 10 minutes. ("Live your life unhampered," the website cleverly proclaims.) A handy option for clothes that need a light refresh, SWASH de-wrinkles and removes odors without the wear and tear of a traditional washing machine or dryer. The system cleans using "precision misting" and a "rapid thermal drying" process. And it plugs into a standard outlet, so you can easily store it in your bedroom or closet.

For sweeping, mopping and vacuuming: The iRobot Roomba and the Scooba, and (coming soon) the Dyson 360 Eye Robot
