Smart kitchen appliances 'reign'

Many products "launched"

Currently, at supermarkets and electronics stores in Hai Duong, kitchen appliances such as smart refrigerators, electronic rice cookers, dishwashers, etc. are designed with many outstanding features and are increasingly attracting consumers' attention.

Mr. Pham Hung Son, representative of HC Hai Duong electronics supermarket, said: "About 5 years ago, the percentage of customers choosing smart kitchen appliances only accounted for about 20-30% of the total number of customers shopping for kitchen appliances. However, in the past 1-2 years, this percentage has increased to 50%. To meet the needs of modern life, major brands and manufacturers are competing to "launch" smart products, applying many new and advanced technologies. This is also one of the prerequisites in the competition between brands and manufacturers".

The refrigerator is a seemingly simple kitchen appliance with the function of preserving food, but now, this product line is integrated with many advanced technologies to enhance the experience when it comes with wifi connection, touch screen and remote control capability. Users can write notes and desired content on the refrigerator's touch screen.

For many refrigerators, just knock twice and the refrigerator lights up, users can observe what food is inside without having to open the refrigerator. The soft freezer compartment helps preserve fresh food that you can take out to cook immediately instead of having to wait for it to defrost. The refrigerator has a door opening alarm when the refrigerator door is not closed properly or opened for too long. These smart refrigerators usually cost from 20 to 35 million VND depending on capacity.

Smart dishwashers are home appliances that integrate modern technology with the ability to automatically clean dishes and effectively sterilize. Thanks to the integration of advanced technology, smart dishwashers can connect to wifi, allowing users to control functions remotely via an application on the phone.

Some high-end dishwashers also support voice control, optimize the washing process through automatic modes and dirt sensors, helping to save water, electricity and increase cleaning efficiency. At HC Hai Duong electronics supermarket, many dishwashers are sold in segments from nearly 4.5 - 29 million VND/unit from brands such as Bosch, LG, Junger...
