Last week the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) was held in Las Vegas and it’s the largest show of the year.

Whirlpool was at CES and revealed some new, exciting appliances. They design products that fit seamlessly into your life and focus on three pillars: Connection, Expression, and Innovation. Check out my pre-show sneak peak post for more.

There are great videos of all the products at the Whirlpool CES Hub. Watch the videos and see these state-of-the-art appliances in action.

They revealed 4 key new appliances at the show:

1. Interactive Cooktop â€“ When your cooktop can browse the internet and connect with your social network, the kitchen becomes a hub of communication and exploration within the home and beyond. Entertaining is revolutionized when you can plan your dinner party on the same device that cooks the meal.

Whirlpool’s can.

Invite and monitor your guest list, search for recipes, and make phone calls without leaving your kitchen island or using multiple devices. For now, this is a concept-only product.

4. MaxArt Microwave â€“ Here’s a video about the new microwaves. In a unique showing of how design, art, and appliances can come together to create a functional piece of work representative of culture, Whirlpool® collaborated with two artists in Mexico to turn a daily-used appliance into an object of desire. Local art collective Los Contratistas turned a set of 50 Whirlpool microwaves into a colorful, modular installation representative of Mexican culture using graffiti techniques. The final pieces work together to create a unique take on the modern day appliance, enriched by culture, design and the arts. For now, this is a concept-only product.

This is my final Whirlpool post and what has impressed me most about them is how focused they are on the consumer and believe in a future focused on you.

Their appliances are designed with you in mind and they really want to make your life easier, more streamlined,  and efficient. I really appreciate it when a company thinks in this way!

  1. OMG! i am in desperate need of a new washer and dryer and being able to get a super cool one, well that’s just the cherry on top!

  2. My standards are very low because I have been living with landlord-chosen appliances for so long. So any appliance that does cleaning so I don’t have to get involved would be all right with me. Maybe a chest freezer that keeps track of the contents? Also, a fridge that does the same. Mine is like a black hole.

  3. The future of my home is definitely to improve its interior, currently it’s a blank slate and I’m looking forward to modernizing and painting.

  4. I’ve always dreamt of a machine that could wash your clothes and dry them! There just HAS to be a way to get the water to drain so you can whip ’em dry!

  5. I would love to get a house one day with a full size kitchen and new appliances. It’s hard to cook in a little alleyway kitchen in my apartment.
