																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Samsung Electronics<strong> </strong>today announced it is showcasing its comprehensive lineup of innovative home appliances — including the new Induction Range from Dacor — at the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) 2025 in Las Vegas. Following on from its “AI for All” vision laid out at CES 2025 in January, Samsung is continuing to build out a suite of user-focused, AI-enhanced solutions providing truly personalized services for living spaces — all based on the foundation of constantly improving solutions like Samsung Knox, Bixby and SmartThings.</p>
<p>The exhibition showcases Bespoke AI appliances — namely the Bespoke 4-Door Flex<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Refrigerator with AI Family Hub<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" />+, the Bespoke AI Laundry Combo<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> and the Bespoke Slide-in Induction Range — which are great additions to any smart home ecosystem. The LCD screens on these appliances act as a hub, allowing easy and intuitive access and control across various intelligent, connected devices. Visitors can experience how implementation of AI can deliver a personalized experience and make daily routines better and more enjoyable.</p>
<p>Additionally, the exhibition provides information on AI Energy Mode in SmartThings Energy<sup>1</sup> and Samsung Care, both of which support Samsung’s commitment to making users’ daily lives more convenient.</p>
<p>Samsung’s KBIS booth also has a dedicated space with built-in appliances from Dacor, including the 2025 Dacor Induction Range. Designed for a premium kitchen, Dacor’s 30” Column Refrigerator – Panel Ready; 30” Column Freezer – Panel Ready; 30” Combination Wall Oven with Steam; and 24” Built-in Wine Dispenser form a seamless wall to bring a clean and luxurious look to the home interior. A separate wine zone also showcases the 24” Wine Column – Panel Ready that continues into an impressive Dacor Wine Wall where visitors can take photos.</p>
<p>“We are looking forward to introducing our Samsung Bespoke and Dacor appliances, all of which harness powerful hyperconnectivity and AI technology to anticipate personal needs and simplify daily tasks,” said Taehwan Hwang, EVP and Head of the Sales and Marketing Team of Digital Appliances (DA) Business at Samsung Electronics. “And as the premier stage for home innovation, KBIS is the perfect place for us to showcase how these smart, beautifully designed appliances work together to create seamless and personalized experiences for every household.”</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000080"><strong>Introducing the 2025 Dacor Induction Range: A Powerful Enhancement to Any Kitchen</strong></span></h3>
<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-159833" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/Samsung-Digital-Appliances-KBIS-2025-Bespoke-AI-appliances-and-2025-Dacor-Induction-Range_main1F.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="1215" /></p>
<p>The 2025 Dacor Induction Range empowers users to quickly and flexibly cook a variety of dishes. The powerful heat of a 4.3 kW Induction Cooktop enables fast and intensive cooking that seals in delicious flavors, making it ideal for sautéing, searing or quickly boiling. The cooktop’s Anti Scratch Glass makes surface cleaning and maintenance super easy, and the matte black finish adds a premium look to the kitchen.</p>
<p>There’s also a 7” Sync Burner that allows users to adjust two separate burners with one control so they can be kept at the same temperature and act as one large cooking zone for large cookware. Since this model is ENERGY STAR® certified, all the power that comes with it doesn’t come at the cost of efficiency, either.</p>
<p>Additionally, Dacor’s Dual Four-part Pure Convection<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> system cooks multiple dishes quickly and thoroughly with no flavor transfer, reducing cooking time by distributing heat evenly across the entire oven. The four key components are as follows:</p>
<ul>
<li>a 1300 W heating element to provide heat</li>
<li>a convection fan to circulate air</li>
<li>an oven-specific baffle to evenly channel air</li>
<li>a triple-mesh filter to prevent flavor crossover</li>
</ul>
<p>Users will also benefit from the luxurious Art Hairline Finish, which features long, horizontal brush strokes on the stainless-steel exterior to contribute to a sophisticated matte appearance that blends harmoniously with kitchen interiors.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000080"><strong>In-Booth Events</strong></span></h3>
<p>Visitors to Samsung’s booth at KBIS will be able to use a buzzworthy photo booth that allows them to take a photo of a miniaturized version of themselves sitting on the shelf of the larger-than-life refrigerator — and then instantly share it on social media.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: small"><em><sup>1</sup> AI Energy Mode must be turned on in the SmartThings App, available on Android and iOS devices. A Wi-Fi connection and a Samsung account are required.</em></span></p>

<h3><span style="color: #000080"><strong>Charting the Future of the Home Appliance Landscape<br />
</strong></span><span style="font-size: small"></span></h3>
<p><span style="font-size: small"><em><em>* Please note that the following responses have been edited for clarity and brevity.</em></em></span></p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-139306" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/KBIS_panel-discussion_main2.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="690" /></p>
<p><span style="color: #3366ff"><strong>Pamela McNally</strong></span><strong> The appliance landscape has changed significantly over the past few years. How has Samsung been adapting to these changes?</strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #3366ff">Shane Higby</span></strong> It certainly has changed, and I would humbly suggest that Samsung has been leading some of that change in a few key areas. The first is sustainability, the second is connectivity and the third is design.</p>
<p>Sustainability is a very critical corporate initiative for us. Approximately 260 Samsung appliances are ENERGY STAR<sup>®</sup> certified, 43 of which received have received the “Most Efficient” award.<sup>1</sup> Recently, SmartThings Energy was given the first-ever Smart Home Energy Management Systems (SHEMS) certification, which we’re very proud of. In the area of connectivity, over 80% of our appliances are connected, which includes Family Hub.</p>
<p>In the area of design, our Bespoke lineup offers consumers a choice <span><span class="ui-provider uy b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z ab ac ae af ag ah ai aj ak">—</span></span> one that didn’t really exist in the home appliance space previously <span><span class="ui-provider uy b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z ab ac ae af ag ah ai aj ak">—</span></span> to bring new colors and materials into the kitchen. This emphasis on customizable designs empowers them to personalize their kitchen to suit their lifestyle.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone wp-image-139305 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/KBIS_panel-discussion_main1.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="648" /></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #3366ff">McNally</span> Could you share more about Samsung’s approach to design in today’s home appliance market? </strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #3366ff">Gary So</span></strong> What we’ve been seeing is that, in the last couple of years, consumers have been spending a lot more time at home. And in many ways, their relationships with appliances have changed dramatically. Pre-pandemic, the approach to design was a lot more functionally driven and a lot more utilitarian. Post-pandemic, designs have moved on to become much more about expression. Rather than just products to cook and clean with, consumers are seeing appliances as an extension of who they are and their design aesthetic.</p>
<p>What’s interesting is that we’re seeing this shift toward customization permeate all age groups. Certainly for millennial home buyers, customization is a lot more natural, but we’re also seeing older consumers embrace the trend. We think this adoption is in large part due to the wide range of options Bespoke provides.</p>
<p>With the Bespoke Design Simulator, consumers can choose custom color panels that open up design possibilities, whether it’s a clean, one-toned option or a more expressive option with multiple tones. We also just announced MyBespoke, which allows users to print their own custom pictures onto panels for a truly personalized experience. Customization in terms of design is truly endless with Bespoke, and we think that this trend is here to stay.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><em><strong><span style="font-size: 20px">“What’s interesting is that we’re seeing this shift toward customization permeate all age groups.”</span></strong></em></p>
<p>We’ve also noticed that following the introduction of Bespoke, there’s been a challenge to the traditional notion of appliances that are all matching with each other. Users don’t feel the need to have all stainless or all black appliances at home. In fact, many of our customers are using Bespoke refrigerators as standalone statement pieces in the kitchen and mixing and matching other products for a more expressive look.</p>
<p>Furthermore, with our home spaces serving so many different functions today, Bespoke customers know that having a personalized home design means the space is always fitting no matter the time of day, serving as a place for breakfast in the morning with family, an office to take video calls in during the day and then back to dinner time with the family at night.</p>
<p>Importantly, we’re still able to combine functionality with aesthetics. Whether it’s an internal beverage center or recessed door handles, Bespoke offers a simple, clean design with a premium feel that fits into any environment <span><span class="ui-provider uy b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z ab ac ae af ag ah ai aj ak">—</span></span> traditional or contemporary. That’s the future: appliances that can reflect personal aesthetics, giving consumers a way to create a design that says something about themselves.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #3366ff">McNally</span> Shane, let’s circle back to your earlier insight regarding Samsung and the connected home.</strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #3366ff">Higby</span> </strong>The connected home is not something new; I’ve mentioned that some 80% of our appliances are connected in some way. What we’re trying to do with connectivity is simplifying it as much as possible for consumers because it can come across as complex and daunting. For example, when you’re doing laundry, our connected laundry appliances can send you a notification when the wash is done and it’s time to switch it to the dryer. You can even schedule the laundry machine to start at a later time, so that when you come home from work, the clothes have not been sitting there damp all day long. Other use cases include starting your dishwasher at night if you don’t want to hear it running. With ranges, you can preheat them while you’re at work, so when you get home, it’s ready to cook dinner.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><em><strong><span style="font-size: 20px">“What we’re trying to do with connectivity is simplifying it as much as possible for consumers because it can come across as complex and daunting.”</span></strong></em></p>
<p>We also have some great functionality with SmartThings Home Care. Our appliances can give you notifications through SmartThings if they sense something might be wrong: overdue maintenance, an open door on an appliance or something else. It’s extra peace of mind.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-139308" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/KBIS_panel-discussion_main4.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="689" /></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #3366ff">McNally</span> So far, we’ve discussed the changes in approaches to design and connectivity within the industry. How do these areas apply to luxury appliances?</strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #3366ff">Geraldine Morrison</span></strong> Design is paramount for the luxury consumer. At Dacor, we work with the world’s top designers to ensure that we’re using the best materials, finishes and truly the best everything in our products because that’s the standard our customers expect. This enables customers to bring their design visions to life. It’s really about preference: whether it’s something clean and recessed that disappears into the space or something extravagant that makes a statement, we have all the options available.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><em><strong><span style="font-size: 20px">“We work with top designers and use the best materials and finishes because it enables customers to bring their design visions to life.”</span></strong></em></p>
<p>With regards to connectivity, Dacor appliances benefit by being on Samsung’s SmartThings platform. Consumers want to know the best way to use their appliances but also keep track of what they’re doing. That’s what we deliver with Dacor.</p>
<p>Our wine cellars, for example, can send notifications about the status of your wine, and our refrigerators can tell you what’s inside your refrigerator at any time using built-in cameras. It’s about providing intuitive, meaningful innovations that allow customers to enjoy an elevated lifestyle with the freedom to get onto doing other things they want to do.</p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #3366ff">McNally</span> Finally, I’d love to hear what’s new in 2023 for both Samsung and Dacor, as well as what you feel the future landscape of appliances will look like.</strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #3366ff">Higby</span> </strong>In the Bespoke portfolio of products, there are a few new things coming in terms of refrigeration and otherwise. In refrigeration, we’re introducing a Bespoke Side-by-Side refrigerator for consumers looking for a premium look in a lower-budget option. It will offer a new Auto Open Door, making it more convenient to open and close the larger doors. Also, new is the 32” Family Hub refrigerator. The new Family Hub features an FHD, bezel-less screen that’s twice as big as the previous model but still blends seamlessly into the appliance. Taking advantage of that new screen, users can do more at once, such as using the new picture-in-picture feature to watch videos on YouTube while creating a shopping list.</p>
<p>There’s also a brand-new wall oven coming out with a first-of-its-kind camera inside so you can monitor your cooking and baking. By pairing the camera with AI technology, the oven can recognize what’s inside and recommend cooking settings accordingly. Users can even share their cooking videos on social media with their friends thanks to SmartThings integration.</p>
<p>We also have other products for the kitchen and the rest of the home in the works, so stay tuned.</p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color: #3366ff">Morrison </span></strong>With Dacor customers, we’re seeing a lot of creativity regarding how appliances are being used. Some of our users may have two kitchen setups at home, one for regular use and one for show for special occasions <span><span class="ui-provider uy b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z ab ac ae af ag ah ai aj ak">—</span></span> or one for “go” and one for “show,” as we like to say. You might have a wine cellar in the kitchen but a wine dispenser in the closet built-in for convenience. It’s really about meeting changing needs as we spend more time at home.</p>
<p>Luxury consumers have high standards, and the focus is versatility <span><span class="ui-provider uy b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z ab ac ae af ag ah ai aj ak">—</span></span> they want that one ultimate, heavy-duty appliance that can do it all. Added to that, they want appliances that can provide precision outcomes, be it baking cookies or baking a turkey. Another trend in luxury is that bigger is better. We’re seeing a lot of interest in bigger capacities, as because we’re doing a lot of things at home, we need more space to do them in.</p>
<p>So, with our Transitional Line, we’re introducing a new 48-inch-wide range that offers the largest capacity with a full 36-inch cavity on one side that’s big enough to cook two turkeys. We’re also introducing a 48-inch built-in refrigerator to the Transitional Line with advanced features including 3D LED Lighting, a full metal interior, precision cooling and Fresh Zone + so that users can convert the space into a fridge or freezer depending on their needs. It also includes a new ice-making feature that makes whisky ball ice as well as ice cubes, which is a really unique feature and a perfect example of flexibility blended with elevated features.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-139309" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/KBIS_panel-discussion_main5.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="610" /></p>
<p>KBIS’s NEXT Stage event provided the perfect platform for the panel of experts to discuss the future of home appliances and the trends that are shaping them. As trends shift toward a more flexible home environment, Samsung and Dacor’s innovative approaches to appliance design are providing ways for consumers to personalize and elevate their home spaces through customizable aesthetics, intuitive connectivity and sustainability.</p>
<p>Stay tuned to Samsung Newsroom for the latest news and updates on Samsung’s KBIS 2023 showcase and Bespoke appliances.</p>

Thanks to Samsung’s Bespoke Home Virtual, consumers got a chance at an enriching experience interacting with the latest Bespoke appliances through a real-to-life tour around a virtual model home at this year’s Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS).</p>
<p>The Bespoke Home Virtual is a 3D home appliance experience in a virtual reality (VR) space using advanced digital twin technology. It allows users to roam around interacting with them to get a feel for how Bespoke appliances would look inside their home in various configurations.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-139281" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Bespoke-Home-Virtual_main1F.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="614" /></p>
<p>Bespoke Home Virtual, unlike similar interior VR experiences, allows users to freely explore locations as if they were in a video game with a whole new level of freedom. While in the past, VR spaces were limited to certain sections being rendered, the Bespoke Home Virtual uses a new technology that opens the entire space so users can see from all angles without limitations. While exploring, users can zoom in on key points of products to compare appliances in detail through direct interaction. What’s more, the Real-Time Rendering technology being utilized presents realistic light renders that mimic real-world light behavior, bringing the scene to life like never before.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-139282" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Bespoke-Home-Virtual_main2.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="563" /></p>
<p>The Kitchen & Bath Industry Show 2023 attendees got to go hands-on, through a docent service, with Bespoke Home Virtual for a truly immersive experience. Modelled to reflect an average American home, the 3D environment offered consumers an easy and intuitive way to experience Bespoke products and create different moods in the home with customizations. Throughout the event, the whole experience was also simultaneously shared on Samsung’s 4K 140-inch display, The Wall, at the Samsung Booth.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-139283" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Bespoke-Home-Virtual_main3.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="660" /></p>
<p>Users first got to select from three distinct interior styles, including Modern, Transitional Light and Transitional Dark, then were free to roam around the fully decorated space. Cycling through three interior designs, users were able to get a deeper understanding of how the appliances would look matched with different textures such as marble backsplashes, wood or stone tile floors and light or dark walls.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-139284" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Bespoke-Home-Virtual_main4.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="700" /></p>
<p>More than a simple walkthrough, attendees were encouraged to get up close and experience a catered suite of Bespoke products, including refrigerators, dishwashers, washing machines and dryers as well as inductions and ovens. Users were able to open the doors on the units to check out features such as the built-in water dispenser inside the fridge as well as the glide pan in the oven while swapping through vibrant colors and detailed finishes. Together, the realistic interior and exterior renditions allowed users to fully enjoy the amazing features that make Bespoke products truly bespoke.</p>
<p>For this year’s KBIS, Samsung enabled users to interactively experience Bespoke using a breakthrough, immersive 3D technology, providing consumers a brand-new way to go hands-on with the latest Samsung home appliances.</p>

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Since its founding in 1965, Dacor has continually sought to provide luxury appliance consumers with the best in product selection as well as in product experiences. With a continuous stream of beautifully designed, innovative products, Dacor, which was acquired by Samsung Electronics in 2016, has been continually setting the tone as well as the expectation for today’s discerning consumer.</p>
<p>Ahead of the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) 2023 in Las Vegas, the National Kitchen & Bath Association (NKBA) has awarded Dacor its prestigious Innovative Showroom Award for the Dacor Kitchen Theater in Irvine, California.</p>
<p>Dacor’s full-scale kitchen showroom in Irvine offers trade partners and consumers alike a first-hand immersive experience, with its industry-lauded products showcased in an exquisite environment designed to provide a feeling and atmosphere reminiscent of Californian homes.</p>
<div id="attachment_138992" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-138992" class="wp-image-138992 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Dacor-Kitchen-Theater_main1.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="667" /><p id="caption-attachment-138992" class="wp-caption-text">▲ At the Dacor Kitchen Theater in Irvine, California, visitors are able to enjoy a hands-on experience of Dacor’s appliances in a cozy, home-like setting.</p></div>
<h3><span style="color: #000080"><strong>Award-Winning Design That Pairs Luxury With Innovation</strong></span></h3>
<p>Dacor earned the NKBA’s coveted award thanks to the unique aesthetics, innovative features and luxurious designs on display at its Irvine showroom.</p>
<p>The award Dacor has received, in the “Kitchen & Bath Design Centers” category, reflects the Dacor Kitchen Theater’s ability to bring the brand to life by offering visitors elevated experiences that honor Dacor’s history and brand mission.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000080"><strong>A Design Narrative That Encompasses Past, Present and Future</strong></span></h3>
<p>As one of its distinguishing design features, the Dacor Kitchen Theater draws heavy influence from its Southern California roots, conveying a narrative of the brand’s past, present and future.</p>
<p>The showroom’s clean lines, simple geometry and use of subtle lighting help paint a picture of the Pacific Ocean and the Sierra Nevada Mountain ranges that bookend California. Bold curves in the designs mimic the California coastline while refined, brushed metallic finishes evoke a feeling of luxury, and rounded edges and stand-out textiles introduce warmth into the space.</p>
<p>Adding to the California motif, Dacor commissioned artisans local to the state to enhance the showroom’s décor. From custom light fixtures by Siemon & Salazar to custom refrigerator panels designed by LA-based artist Alex Turco, the workmanship of local craftsmen truly provides the finishing touches to the showroom.</p>
<div id="attachment_138993" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-138993" class="wp-image-138993 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Dacor-Kitchen-Theater_main2.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="667" /><p id="caption-attachment-138993" class="wp-caption-text">▲ The Dacor Kitchen Theater’s cooking demonstration space offers visitors a truly hands-on experience with Dacor appliances.</p></div>
<p>The Dacor Kitchen Theater’s professional cooking demonstration space adds an experiential aspect to the showroom. With it, the showroom can function as an educational and training space, allowing visitors to get hands-on with Dacor appliances for fuller, more immersive product experiences.</p>
<p>Furthermore, the venue provides a glimpse into how Dacor’s luxury cooking appliances’ exceptional materials and precision performance can elevate any consumers’ kitchen.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000080"><strong>A Showroom Experience With Versatility at Its Core</strong></span></h3>
<p>The richness of Dacor’s designs is matched only by their versatility. The innovative, modular designs that are at the core of Dacor’s products exemplify the brand’s versatility, personality and ability to serve a variety of lifestyles.</p>
<p>Concealed doors and cabinetry throughout the showroom floor provide a clean and minimal canvas for the kitchen vignettes on display that highlight a variety of Californian lifestyles. The distinct vignettes bridge luxury with life in order to help connect visitors to Dacor’s diverse yet cohesive lineup.</p>
<p>Throughout the showroom space, visitors are presented with three kitchen vignettes that showcase Dacor’s diverse kitchen offerings. The first vignette was inspired by the city and harnesses a muted gold, brass and silver metallic palette. The second vignette combines durability with exceptional craftsmanship, and the third leverages natural light and greenery to create a scene that blurs the line between indoors and outdoors.</p>
<div id="attachment_138994" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img loading="lazy" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-138994" class="wp-image-138994 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/Dacor-Kitchen-Theater_main3.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="667" /><p id="caption-attachment-138994" class="wp-caption-text">▲ Vignette 1 showcases Dacor’s Contemporary appliances in silver stainless and uses a palette of muted metallics to provide a city-inspired design.</p></div>

<p>Beyond their designs, Dacor products harness integrated technologies to provide consumers with even more versatility. Hidden touch control panels, Wi-Fi-enabled touch screens and Samsung SmartThings integration allow users to personalize their appliances in ways that truly cater to their lifestyles and habits.</p>

<p>Samsung Electronics today showcased innovations that raise the bar for sustainable, smart and personalized living at the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) 2023 in Las Vegas, Nevada.</p>
<p>Bespoke appliances have quickly grown in popularity since they were introduced to the U.S. market in 2021, with Bespoke refrigerators as the centerpiece. The ever-expanding line now includes full kitchen packages, laundry and floor care products.</p>
<p>This year, Samsung is offering Bespoke customization to the built-in cooking category and also introducing new refrigerator models. With the new additions, Samsung aims to continue to help make energy savings a seamless part of everyday life, enhance SmartThings’ connected services in more ways and empower more personalized experiences in 2023.</p>
<p>“Sustainability, connectivity and personalization are top of mind for today’s homeowners and homebuyers,” said Ik Soo Choi, EVP and Head of Sales and Marketing Team of Digital Appliances Business at Samsung Electronics. “We’re excited to be back at KBIS to showcase how our products inspire people to create sustainable living spaces that truly reflect their personal style, with connectivity that empowers new ways of living.”</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000080"><strong>Unlock Everyday Sustainability</strong></span></h3>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-139011" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/KBIS2023_PR_main2.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="456" /></p>
<p>By integrating energy efficiency and connected technology into more appliances and in more ways, Samsung is helping make sustainability a seamless part of daily life.</p>
<p>At KBIS, Samsung will showcase efforts to enhance sustainability throughout the product life cycle <span><span class="ui-provider vh b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z ab ac ae af ag ah ai aj ak">— from production to distribution, use and disposal — and highlight the added energy savings that come with its </span></span>SmartThings Energy<sup>1</sup> service. The service delivers easy-to-understand information about your smart home energy usage, as well as tips to help you save more power. Its intuitive AI Energy Mode<sup>2</sup> automatically optimizes settings to reduce the amount of energy consumed by connected Samsung appliances,<sup>3</sup> making it easy to maximize energy savings and help lower your home’s energy costs. This includes up to 15% savings for compatible refrigerators,<sup>4</sup> up to 20% for compatible air conditioners<sup>5</sup> and up to 35% for compatible washers<sup>6</sup> on select cycles.<sup>7</sup></p>
<p>For its efforts with SmartThings Energy, Samsung has been awarded the industry’s first mass-market Smart Home Energy Management Systems (SHEMS) certification by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The EPA has also awarded Samsung 260 ENERGY STAR® certifications, including 43 “Most Efficient” recognitions.<sup>8</sup></p>
<p>KBIS attendees can also learn more about the new Less Microfiber Cycle and Filter, the former of which cuts microplastic emissions during laundry by up to 54%.<sup>9</sup> Now available in Europe, the cycle will roll out to compatible washers in Korea from February this year and in the U.S. soon.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000080"><strong>Empowering More Personalized Experiences With Advanced Connectivity</strong></span></h3>
<p>In 2023, Bespoke appliances will deliver more personalized experiences with connectivity to help make daily life more convenient and productive. At KBIS, Samsung will highlight how its SmartThings services are transforming the way people interact with appliances by creating more intuitive and seamless experiences that bring calm to our connected world.</p>
<p>The six SmartThings services on display <span><span class="ui-provider vh b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z ab ac ae af ag ah ai aj ak">—</span></span> SmartThings Energy, Cooking, Pet Care, Clothing Care, Air Care and Home Care <span><span class="ui-provider vh b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z ab ac ae af ag ah ai aj ak">—</span></span> add new levels of convenience and efficiency to daily life. Together, these services make managing smart homes simple by catering to consumers’ diverse needs. This is especially true in the kitchen, where SmartThings Cooking offers a more personalized take on meal preparation that considers users’ health goals and what they have in their fridge. It works seamlessly with the new Bespoke AI<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Oven to sync recipe recommendations with cooking settings while Samsung Health integration helps users keep track of their diet for healthier living. The oven also includes cameras that allow it to optimize cooking settings using food-recognition technology and let users create time-lapse videos of food cooking to share on social media.</p>
<p>Also new to the kitchen, the Bespoke 4-Door Flex<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /> Family Hub<img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/16.0.1/72x72/2122.png" alt="™" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" />+ refrigerator features a 32-inch, bezel-less full HD display that is perfect for multitasking. The larger screen makes using SmartThings services a breeze and streamlines everything from entertainment to home management by allowing users to view multiple apps at once. This means users can take advantage of Samsung TV Plus’s picture-in-picture function to tune in to more than 190 free channels<sup>10</sup> while adding items to their shopping list, following along to a recipe video, managing the family calendar and more <span><span class="ui-provider vh b c d e f g h i j k l m n o p q r s t u v w x y z ab ac ae af ag ah ai aj ak">—</span></span> at the same time. The screen is also perfect for displaying family photos or artwork from around the world using services like Google Photos and Atelier, respectively. The new SmartThings Dashboard also takes advantage of the larger screen to make households’ smart home controls easily accessible.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000080"><strong>Bringing Bespoke to Life</strong></span></h3>
<p><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-139012" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/KBIS2023_PR_main3.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="682" /></p>
<p>Samsung is encouraging consumers to explore the next level of customization with new Bespoke products and immersive experiences. These include both MyBespoke<sup>11</sup> as well as a new interactive showroom experience known as Bespoke Home Virtual.</p>
<p>MyBespoke offers endless possibilities for personalization, allowing you to personalize your Bespoke refrigerator with original designs, artwork or your favorite photos for the first time. You can design your one-of-a-kind MyBespoke fridge panels for one or two French Doors and Samsung will deliver them directly to your home.</p>
<p>Create your own design when you purchase a Bespoke refrigerator from <a href="http://samsung.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Samsung.com</a> and simply swap out your existing Bespoke French Door fridge panels with your custom MyBespoke designs. To complement your top doors’ custom designs, you can choose to outfit your fridge’s lower doors with a variety of bold, bright or neutral Bespoke colors in glass or metallic finishes.<sup>12</sup></p>
<p>KBIS attendees can also immerse themselves in Bespoke Home Virtual, a virtual simulation that takes them on a journey through a true-to-life Bespoke showroom. Within the experience, participants can customize the colors, materials and finishes across Bespoke appliances, including kitchen packages and laundry products. They can also interact with these digital appliances to experience their usability and view their interiors.</p>
<p>All of these innovations and more will be on display at Samsung’s KBIS exhibit, located at Booth W4301 in the Las Vegas Convention Center. For more information, please visit <a href="http://www.samsung.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">www.samsung.com</a>.</p>

																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Dacor_KBIS_Main_1.jpg"><img loading="lazy" class="alignnone wp-image-81810 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/global/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Dacor_KBIS_Main_1.jpg" width="705" height="469" /></a></p>
<p>Dacor, a luxury kitchen appliance manufacturer acquired by Samsung Electronics in August 2016, today announces plans to unveil a new full lineup of premium household appliances at The Kitchen & Bath Industry Show 2017 in Orlando, Florida.</p>
<p>KBIS hosts over 2,500 exhibitors annually from various home appliance brands, while attracting more than 120,000 attendees across diverse industries. Dacor will showcase its new full-package Heritage Lineup which reflects the powerful combination of Dacor’s 50-year expertise in the built-ins segment with Samsung’s industry leading technologies and design.</p>
<p>The new luxury lineup, upgraded from its popular and traditional originals, will feature completely reimagined premium Built-In Column and French Door refrigerators, Range, and Wall Oven. The Range and Wall Oven are Wi-Fi-enabled, allowing users to control the appliances with their smartphone using the iQ<sup>TM</sup> feature, and will include Dacor’s Four-Part Pure Convection<sup>TM</sup> technology which heats and cooks food quickly and evenly, inside and out.</p>
<h3><span style="color: #000080"><strong>Award Winning Energy Efficient Refrigerators</strong></span></h3>
<p>Additionally, nine Dacor refrigerators received the EPA’s Energy Star 2016 Emerging Technology Award and were recognized for their innovative refrigerant systems developed by Samsung. All nine including the Built-In Column refrigerator come in various sizes and were the first Dacor refrigerators to be awarded.</p>
<p>To qualify for the EPA award, the refrigerant system must have a Global Warming Potential (GWP) rating below 15 and produce an energy efficiency gain of 5 percent or higher. Dacor refrigerators have a negligible GWP rating and utilize the eco-friendly R-600a hydrocarbon refrigerant, which can reduce energy usage by 6.5 percent.</p>
<p>“Our most recent luxury packages are built using Dacor’s top-tier technologies and decades of industry knowledge, paired with the strength of Samsung’s pioneering innovation,” said David Nichols, vice president of products at Dacor. “We are honored to receive recognition from the US EPA, and we will continue to invest in new luxury kitchen appliances utilizing green technology in cooperation with Samsung.”</p>
<p>Founded in 1965 in California, Dacor was acquired by Samsung Electronics in August 2016. The brand is well known for its luxury home appliances and has been a prominent player in the housing and real estate markets in the US and Canada.</p>
<p>The Dacor booth will be open at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando from January 10 through 12 for KBIS 2017.</p>
