LG Electronics (LG) is showing off its extraordinary lineup of convenience and performance enhancing washing machines. Equipped with incredible technologies such as TurboShot, 6 Motion Direct Drive and TurboWashTM, LG’s washing machines ensure that finished laundry comes out brilliantly clean while saving time and water.
“We design our washing machines with consumer
needs in mind, making sure that they provide reduced
washing times and greater water savings,” said Seong-jin Jo, President and CEO of the LG Electronics Home Appliance Company. “With cutting-edge technologies like TurboShot increasing the appeal of our products, LG will continue to lead the global washing machine market and continue working to become the number one brand in the global home appliance market.”
TurboShot: High Cleaning Performance
LG’s TurboShot technology is designed to be gentle on fabrics while providing enhanced washing and rinsing. During the washing cycle, TurboShot technology uses a rapid drum motion and waterfall-like jets to penetrate deep into fabrics. This technology removes tough stains by delivering a complete and thorough wash while helping dissolve detergent more efficiently.
Even in the rinsing process, LG’s TurboShot technology helps effectively remove stains while yielding impressive energy savings. Unlike conventional routines where the entire tub is first filled with water, the TurboShot technology enables clean water to be sprayed directly from a valve at the top of the machine, leading to more effective penetration for the removal of stains on clothes while still reducing water usage.
TurboShot: Hygienic Tub Clean
LG’s TurboShot technology also powers the washing machine’s Tub Clean course which keeps the washing machine’s tub hygienic. When LG’s Tub Clean is activated, the washer uses centrifugal force generated by high speed rotation to disperse water to the surface of the outer stainless steel tub. Moreover, the Tub Clean course keeps the tub optimally hygienic, providing more sanitary washing results and greatly reducing tub damage.
Motion Direct Drive
The advanced motor of LG’s washing machine ensures greater performance and efficiency. Directly attached to the drum, LG’s 6 Motion Direct Drive motor uses a combination of six different pre-set customized cycles that provide a perfect wash for all the different types of clothes in consumers’ closets. With a touch as delicate as washing by hand, the 6 Motion Direct Drive Technology helps reduce wrinkles and damage in clothes.
Steam Function
In order to ensure clothes are hygienically cleaned, LG’s washing machine is also equipped with the Allergy Care function which uses steam to help remove allergens, mites and residual detergent, all of which have been linked to respiratory and skin ailments.
Groundbreaking New Design
Designed with both aesthetics and practicality in mind, the Top-Loading Washing Machine’s slam-proof Soft Closing Door prevents the door from unexpectedly closing on users, keeping their fingers safe while they are loading and unloading the washing machine.
Front-Load Washing Machine
LG’s TurboWashTM Technology1
LG’s revolutionary TurboWashTM integrates the Jet Spray feature to help significantly reduce total washing times, create impressive energy savings and deliver cleaner clothes. Spraying water directly onto fabrics for approximately 120 seconds, the Jet Spray enhances the exceptional washing and rinsing performance of 6 Motion Direct Drive technology and enables TurboWashTM to fast forward an entire washing cycle. Through LG’s innovations, the most commonly used washing cycles –
Cotton, Cotton Large, Mix and Easy Care – take only 59 minutes from start to finish. When set to TurboWashTM, LG’s outstanding front loader reduces energy consumption by up to 15 percent and water consumption by up to 40 percent2. As such, consumers can get their washing done faster and enjoy lower water and electricity bills.
LG’s Advanced Eco-Hybrid Technology and Smart Design Washer-Dryer
LG’s Eco-Hybrid washer-dryers feature both Air drying and Normal drying modes, whereas most washing machines only offer one or the other. This convenient and efficient washer-dryer delivers A-grade energy savings.4 Compared with LG conventional drying modes, LG’s powerful Air drying setting can save users nearly 7,000 liters of water per year.5 And at a 24-inch standard size, LG’s Eco-Hybrid washer-dryer boasts the world’s first 12kg washing capacity and 8kg drying capacity, effectively reducing a household’s washing frequency by approximately 91 loads per year.6
LG’s Eco-Hybrid dryer features an Eco mode and a Speed mode, letting homeowners choose between optimal energy and time savings. Using sophisticated heat pump technology, Eco mode and Speed mode both provide up to A++ energy efficiency while Speed mode takes 30 percent less time to complete a cycle, leaving more time to take care of the important things in life.7 An ideal solution for drying delicate items, LG’s Eco-Hybrid dryers can dry clothes even at low temperatures, reducing fabric damage and shrinkage.
LG TrueSteamTM Technology
LG’s latest front–load washing machine incorporates TrueSteamTM technology, which enables Steam Refresh, Allergy Care, and the new Steam Softener feature. Steam Refresh employs steam instead of water to help facilitate a deep clean; removing wrinkles and odors from delicate clothes in just 20 minutes. LG’s TrueSteamTM technology also works to eliminate allergens, mites and residual detergent, all of which have been linked to respiratory and skin ailments. Helping to address consumers’ health concerns, the Steam Softener function is a safe and effective alternative to conventional chemical-based fabric softeners.
