The system's existence was first confirmed in a French language interview in April 2010<ref name="Exclusive">[http://www.melty.fr/les-sims-3-ambitions-entretien-exclusif-actu32482.html The Sims 3 Ambitions: exclusive interview with the game's producer, Grant Rodiek] ([http://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=auto&tl=en&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.melty.fr%2Fles-sims-3-ambitions-entretien-exclusif-actu32482.html English Translation])</ref>, and confirmed on [[TheSims3.com]] forums by staff members later in May:

<blockquote>"Hey guys - there will be a laundry system in ambitions! It will be optional, if you don't want to bother with it, you don't have to, but if you want to add some extra good moodlets and entertainment, you can choose to purchase a washer and dryer for your Sims. AND the high end dryer might have a special surprise if you watch it closely of course if you really hate laundry, work on your inventing skill and then detonate your washer.<ref name="SimGuruLindsay on Laundry">[http://forum.thesims3.com/jforum/posts/list/60/194062.page#2379330 SimGuruLindsay on Laundry in Ambitions]</ref>"</blockquote>
