Appliance Innovations: A Journey Through Time and Modern Day Marvels

 

To appeal to today’s home buyers, finding the perfect balance between style and substance is essential. Consumers want more than just utility; they are looking for appliances that seamlessly blend into their living spaces while also enhancing efficiency and performance.

 

Whirlpool Corporation puts purposeful innovation at the forefront when designing new appliances. It’s not about innovation for the sake of innovation – it’s about improving life at home for our customers. Every product built is the culmination of years of research into consumer wants and needs to offer real benefits, blending functionality with aesthetics. 

 

Here are four of Whirlpool Corporation’s latest and greatest appliance innovations, each complete with unique features designed to simplify and enhance everyday life for homeowners:

 

 

The Best of KBIS Gold Award winner in the Game-Changing Innovation category and Best of KBIS from the Kitchn and Reviewed.com was none other than the JennAir^® 30” Column Refrigerator with SlimTech™ insulation technology, the first vacuum-insulated structure (VIS) technology in a refrigerator in the North American market.

 

 

SlimTech^™ insulation technology can reduce wall thickness by up to 66%, allowing for up to 25% more capacity inside the refrigerator. Plus, increasing the thickness of SlimTech^™ insulation walls can reduce thermal conductivity, allowing a refrigerator to be up to 50% more energy efficient. With sustainability more top of mind among today's consumers, appliances with energy-saving features may be appealing.

 

Also securing a Best of KBIS Award from the Kitchn was the new Whirlpool^® 30-inch Electric Range with Air Fry, which streamlines cleanup with its innovative WipeClean^™ coating.

 

 

The exclusive WipeClean^™ coating makes tackling tough messes a breeze and requires only water, not harsh cleaners. Simply wet, wait a few minutes, then easily wipe away to reveal a sparkling clean.

 

 

 

Selected as one of Green Builder’s Sustainable Products of the Year, the new KitchenAid^® 30-inch 4-Element Induction Slide-In Convection Range with Air Fry combines the precision of induction with the power of Air Fry all within one sleek, slide-in range.

 

 

The SatinGlide^™ Roll-Out Extension Rack on this convection range makes it easier to cook with large or heavy bakeware. Simply use the sure-grip handle and smooth roll-out to simplify loading and unloading.

 

 

 

The KitchenAid^® Counter Depth 4 Door Refrigerator with Exterior Water and Ice Dispenser was honored with a Best of KBIS award from Reviewed.com for its modern 4-door configuration that helps keep ingredients fresh, accessible, and organized.

 

 

 

Sliding Storage Trays are located throughout the refrigerator and freezer areas, and are a versatile area for storing platters, organizing ingredients and keeping items easily accessible. They come in a wood-look finish that’s beautiful yet functional and stain-resistant and can be removed for easy cleaning.
