The Existence of This $1,000 "Smart" Iron Makes Me Laugh and Cry

Like this CNet reviewer I am totally flabbergasted at why this iron exists and how it is a superior experience.

I hate wrinkles. I also hate ironing my clothes. So I'm probably not the target audience for the more-than $1,000 smart ironing system that a Swiss company debuted at an international trade show. Yes, you read that correctly.
The Laurastar Smart was on display last week at the IFA trade show in Berlin. The Laurastar Smart, which will start at $1,400 (roughly £1,050 in the UK and AU$1,825) when it comes to the US in the coming months, includes an ironing board with a built-in water tank and filter and a Bluetooth-enabled iron.

The iron connects to an app that provides ironing tutorials and real-time guides to improve your ironing technique, just in case you've reached that point in your life when you can afford a $1,400 iron but don't know how to use it. The app also gives you statistics about your equipment, such as your water levels, how much your ironing board cover is wearing and information about how much time you really spend ironing, a fun tidbit you can throw out at cocktail parties whilst wearing a crisp button-down that you ironed yourself.
