LG Electronics: "Large-Capacity Dishwashers Are the Trend"
'LG Dios Dishwasher', All Trends Focus on 'Large Capacity and Steam'
Among Dios dishwasher sales, the large capacity for 3-5 person households accounts for over 90% this year
[Asia Economy Reporter Changhwan Lee] LG Electronics' dishwashers have been found to be gaining great popularity mainly for their large capacity models.
LG Electronics announced on the 29th that among the total sales of Dios dishwashers, the sales proportion of large capacity models for 3-5 person households (12 place settings) has exceeded 90% since the beginning of this year. This figure is more than 15 percentage points higher than about 75% during the same period last year.
The models for 1-2 person households (6 place settings) have limited internal space, so cooking utensils other than dishes often need to be washed by hand separately. Therefore, customers prefer the 3-5 person household models that can wash dishes and cooking utensils together.
Also, as customers' interest in hygiene and convenience continues to increase, about 95% of customers who purchased LG Dios dishwashers this year chose models with steam functions.
The LG Dios dishwasher is equipped with TrueSteam, which sprays high-temperature steam thoroughly from three sides?the ceiling, front, and bottom of the dishwasher?effectively removing stuck-on food, harmful bacteria, and viruses from the dishes.
According to tests by the Korea Testing & Research Institute, 100°C TrueSteam removes 99.999% of harmful bacteria such as E. coli, Salmonella, and Listeria. Tests by the World Kimchi Research Institute showed it removes 99.999% of Norovirus, Hepatitis A virus, and enterohemorrhagic E. coli.
This product creates three-dimensional water flows from multiple outlets, including tornado washing blades, to clean dishes quickly and thoroughly. In particular, the X-shaped tornado washing blades at the bottom of the dishwasher rotate alternately clockwise and counterclockwise, generating high-pressure water jets that remove even grease remaining on the dishes.
The LG Dios dishwasher applies a smart shelf system equipped with 3-level height adjustment, a multi-purpose shelf, and customized dish racks to provide optimal storage space. The 3-level height adjustment allows easy height changes to fit container sizes from small plates to large pots. The multi-purpose shelf conveniently stores spoons, ladles, and other utensils. The customized dish racks can be adjusted to fit containers, enabling storage of various dishes.
