There may have been a lot of things Sheldon Cooper said and did on the Big Bang Theory that went right over our heads, but one thing that was crystal clear? He knew how to do laundry.

It's hard to forget the laundry room scene in episode 1 of season 2 where we first see Sheldon folding his clothes using some sort of board — with three flips, he's got a perfectly folded shirt. Needless to say, but genius.

Even years after the show ended, fans are still wondering if and where they can get the device Sheldon uses. Well, there's good news because this isn't just some sort of prop from the show, you can snag one for just $14 on Amazon.

Now, it's not the exact one that Sheldon used, but the BoxLegend version is currently a best-seller on the site with over 20,000 5-star reviews. It comes in a few different colors, and you use it just like Sheldon would. It's also big enough to do pants, pajamas and dresses, too.

Naturally, many of the users reference the BBT character in their reviewers. "Makes it a quick fold …to go into the packing cubes and into the suite case for travel…now my wife is calling me Sheldon..I never could fold like my wife…now I can," one wrote. "I blame Sheldon Cooper for this purchase. What was bought as a joke gift ended up becoming a family-wide obsession," said another.

When we asked Carolyn Forte, executive director of the Good Housekeeping Institute's Home Care and Cleaning Lab, to weigh in, she noted that laundry folders have actually been around for a while (before BBT), but they really do work. "They are a great way to make folding easier and keep closet shelves and drawers looking neater," she said.

Now if only there was something that could help us figure out string theory.
