Humanoid robots are mostly a waste of time. Task-shaped robots are much easier to design, build, and maintain... and are more reliable. Some of the things you mention might needs humanoid versatility (loading the dishwasher), others would be far better served by purpose-built robots (laundry sorting).
Maybe "busbot" or "scullerybot".
So, not only is the human form the only solution for many tasks, it's also a much cheaper solution considering the idle time of task-specific robots. You would need only a single humanoid robot for all tasks, instead of buying a different machine for each task. And instead of having to design and build a new machine for each task, you'll need to just download new software for each task.
1000 machines specialized for 1000 tasks are great, but don’t deliver the same value as a single bot that can interchange with people flexibly.
Costly today, but wont be forever.
I think I'd only really save time by having a robot that could unload my dishwasher and put up the clean dishes.
Foldimate has gone bankrupt in 2021 [1], and the domain referral from foldimate.com to a 404 page at miele.com, suggests that it was Miele who bought up the remains, not a sketchy company with a ".website" top-level domain.
… so Elon Musk? :D
