Samsung Redefines Laundry With New A-70% and 13 Kg Bespoke AI Washers at IFA 2026

Samsung Electronics today announced that it will showcase two new Bespoke AI Washer models during IFA 2026:¹ a 10 kg model designed to deliver A-70% energy efficiency² and a 13 kg large-capacity model engineered to fit within a standard 600 mm depth.

As the official main sponsor of the IFA Creator Hub, Samsung will showcase its latest innovations at Humboldt Carré in Berlin, Germany from Sept. 2-6. The new Bespoke AI Washers will be among the products on display, highlighting Samsung’s latest advances in technology.

The two new models combine improved energy efficiency and greater capacity with space-efficient design and AI-powered fabric care to help consumers manage laundry more efficiently and conveniently.

“At Samsung, we are continually challenging the traditional trade-offs between energy efficiency, capacity and convenience,” said Hyoung Min Park, VP and Head of the Customer Experience Team of the Digital Appliances (DA) Business at Samsung Electronics. “During IFA 2026, we’re demonstrating how innovation can help consumers save energy, handle larger loads and enjoy a more intelligent and convenient laundry experience.”

Larger 10 Kg Bespoke AI Washer Brings New Efficiency Milestone

The Bespoke AI Washer with A-70% energy efficiency marks a new step forward for Samsung, following the A-55% Bespoke AI Washer introduced at IFA 2024 and the A-65% model showcased at IFA 2025.

The new washer will be designed to consume up to 70% less energy than the minimum energy efficiency requirement for a Class A rating in Europe, while increasing washing capacity from 9 kg³ to 10 kg. By improving capacity and energy efficiency simultaneously, the new model builds on the company’s continued research into overcoming the traditional compromise between washing larger loads and reducing energy consumption.

Samsung has achieved these gains through engineering improvements across key areas, including motor efficiency, thermal management, and wash-cycle design. Together, these technologies reduce electricity consumption while maintaining effective cleaning performance and everyday usability.

13 Kg Bespoke AI Washer Offers Increased Capacity With Standard-Depth Footprint

Samsung will also showcase the new Bespoke AI Washer with large capacity, which brings a 13 kg washing capacity to a standard European design depth of 600 mm.

Using SpaceMax™ technology, which creates more space inside to enhance the mechanical design and incorporate a larger drum without increasing the external dimensions, the washer increases internal volume while maintaining a compact 24-inch form factor. This space-efficient design allows users to wash larger loads, bedding, and bulkier items — while helping the appliance fit within common European kitchen, utility-room, and furniture configurations.

The washer also incorporates Samsung’s mono-body design, creating a unified form designed to blend naturally into a wide range of interiors. A slim front frame reinforces its streamlined silhouette, while refined colors, materials, and finishes contribute to a clean, understated appearance.

At the center of the interface is a large touch display visually integrated with the detergent compartment. From this display, users can intuitively access cycle controls, connected features, and personalized laundry services through SmartThings.⁴

Auto Open Door Helps Keep the Washer Interior Fresh

For added convenience, both washers feature Auto Open Door. Once a wash cycle is complete, the washer door opens gradually to help release residual moisture from inside the drum. By automatically ventilating the interior after a cycle, Auto Open Door helps keep the washer interior fresh between cycles.

Together, the new A-70% and 13 kg Bespoke AI Washers reflect Samsung’s continued effort to challenge traditional laundry trade-offs. They deliver great capacity with lower energy consumption, making everyday laundry more intelligent and convenient.
