Building upon its leadership at the forefront
of the global refrigerator market, LG Electronics (LG) displayed its world-renowned
InstaView Door-in-Door™ refrigerator at this year’s InnoFest Asia, held on the South
Korean island of Jeju. The refrigerator is widely recognized for its ingenious display
screen and cutting-edge Knock-On feature that saves energy while maintaining a sleek,
futuristic appearance.
InstaView Door-in-Door™ – A Revolutionary Concept
While conventional refrigerators
merely sport ordinary doors with ice dispensers, LG’s InstaView Door-in-Door™ has
impressed media and industry insiders alike with its never-before-seen 33-inch
sleek glass panel and array of innovative features. The transparent window on
the InstaView feature enables users to check on the items stored inside without
letting out any cold air. With two simple knocks, the Knock-On feature illuminates
the interior, revealing refrigerator content without forcing the user to open
the door. The spacious Door-in-Door™ compartment allows users to easily store
larger condiments, beverages, or snacks. The storage space can be effortlessly
opened using the Hidden Button under the refrigerator door while also granting
users a wider view of the items stored inside, offering the utmost in flexibility
and convenience.
The Smart InstaView Door-in-Door refrigerator model which features Amazon’s
Alexa Voice Service gives users access to an intelligent personal assistant that,
in addition to searching recipes, can play music, add items to a shopping list and
more simply through voice recognition. This Smart InstaView model was recognized
by top award-giving bodies during the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) held in
Las Vegas last January including Expert Reviews CES Top Pick: Best Home
Appliance and eight other awards. With Alexa, daily tasks in the kitchen – such
as cooking or planning for the day – turn into a hands-free, dynamic, and
entertaining experience.
Inverter Linear Compressor Ensures Maximum
Energy Savings
LG refrigerators are
powered by the unique Inverter Linear Compressor, which employs a linear piston
drive instead of a conventional reciprocating drive. This generates less
internal friction, resulting in lower energy consumption and less noise, all
while providing greater reliability and durability. LG’s Inverter Linear
Compressor is backed by a 10-year warranty. The compressor is able to
operate without complications for up to 20 years1, according to a
review by the
German scientific and technical association Verband der Elektrotechnik
Elektronik Informationstechnik (VDE).
Innovative Features that Cater to Everyday User Needs
The inside of the InstaView Door-in-Door™
is equipped with Hygiene Fresh+, to eliminate
potentially contaminated air inside the refrigerator. Meanwhile, the innovative
FRESHBalancer™ optimizes humidity levels by sealing the vegetable box to keep
fruits and vegetables fresh for a longer period of time.
Additionally, with
LG’s non-plumbing water dispensing system, the refrigerator can be installed anywhere
in the home. The streamlined large capacity water tank is located in the
refrigerator’s main compartment, enabling users to pour water directly into the
tank.
“Our latest InstaView Door-in-Door™ refrigerator was
warmly received at InnoFest Asia with its revolutionary features designed to keep
food as fresh as possible,” said YoungMin Chae, Vice President for LG Electronics Home
Appliance. “The refrigerator exemplifies LG’s commitment to both aesthetics and
efficiency with its breathtaking features and sophisticated design and we
believe that this will definitely excite our Filipino consumers once we bring
it to the Philippine market sometime soon.”
