Inventions you wish they’d invent as types of furniture or adjustments/accessories for them

Pillow cases with multiple sides, each of which is the cool one.
A pullout sofa that doesn’t feel like you’re sleeping on a foam pad stretched on barbed wire.
A motorized ottoman that comes to you when you call it.
A combination toilet and riding vacuum cleaner so that you can accomplish two things at once.
The hover chair: Now you need not get up out of your seat to go to the kitchen.
The Starbucks Coffee table: actually makes your coffee and misspells your name on a cup when it’s done.
A couch that sorts the loose change that falls out of your pockets and in between the cushions.
A Mute Pilliow, which mutes and un-mutes the TV with a firm tap.
A washing machine/dryer that also folds and sorts.
Under-couch repeller + finder to prevent things from getting lost behind and under couches and also to repel dust build up.
