Cuckoo Launches Two Large Dishwashers... Accelerates Market Expansion

[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Hyewon] Cuckoo Electronics announced on the 9th that it will launch two mid-to-large-sized dishwashers for 6 and 12 people. As dishwashers rapidly emerge as essential kitchen appliances that enhance convenience in daily life and reduce the burden of housework, the company plans to actively target the market.

The 6-person dishwasher (CDW-A0611TS), developed as a mid-sized model, has a capacity optimized for households of 3 to 4 members. It applies a countertop type that can be placed on top of the kitchen counter without requiring a separate built-in installation, thereby increasing space utilization.

Equipped with an extra-large 43cm washing nozzle, strong water jets rotate and spray from the washing arms, boasting powerful cleaning performance without blind spots. The high-pressure water stream sprayed through the 43cm large nozzle and powerful pump effectively removes hardened food residues and provides flawless cleaning results inside and outside dishes, including concave and curved areas, thoroughly cleaning various sizes of cookware such as frying pans and large pots. Additionally, high-temperature sterilization washing thoroughly removes stubborn grease and hard rice grains.

After rinsing is complete, the remaining heat and moisture inside are dried using a water droplet condensation drying method.

The product features ‘6 washing modes’ that allow users to select the desired program optimized for the condition of the dishes. In particular, a separately installed ‘turbidity sensor’ classifies the contamination level of dishes into four stages and adjusts washing time and operation mode accordingly. Furthermore, the ‘automatic detergent and rinse dispenser’ reduces the hassle of measuring and adding detergent each time, enhancing convenience.

The front-opening door, which opens smoothly downward, firmly supports the dish rack.

The thin tubing line with a diameter of 1cm reduces the burden of drilling holes in the sink countertop during dishwasher installation and allows for neat installation, significantly lowering installation difficulties for households with rental or lease housing environments.

The 12-person large dishwasher (CDW-A1210UBS) can be installed as a freestanding or semi-built-in product. Three washing nozzles located at the top, middle, and bottom, along with a vortex nozzle that creates internal whirlpools, deliver powerful water jets to every corner without blind spots.

The ‘Twin Dry Fans’ located on both sides of the main body generate 3D 360-degree airflow inside the dishwasher, achieving perfect and efficient drying in every corner.

A key strength of this new product is that it completely removes remaining moisture and odors without the need for an automatic door-opening function after drying. Existing dishwashers, even after drying is complete, require opening the door to release moisture and steam remaining inside due to the limitations of the water droplet condensation drying method. However, products with automatic door-opening functions risk dust or insects entering through the open door gap, and the open door may cause safety issues such as collisions with people or entry by children and pets.

A Cuckoo representative said, “With the launch of this large dishwasher, we will actively expand our lineup from small to large products and strengthen our position as a leading brand that dominates the dishwasher market this year with enhanced technology and product quality.” He added, “In particular, the large-capacity 12-person dishwasher supports built-in installation, and we are actively considering B2B business expansion in cooperation with construction companies.”
