LG BRINGS SLOW-MELTING ROUND ‘CRAFT ICE’ TO FLAGSHIP INSTAVIEW REFRIGERATORS

8/29/2019

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
 
LG BRINGS SLOW-MELTING ROUND ‘CRAFT ICE’ TO FLAGSHIP INSTAVIEW REFRIGERATORS
 
Industry-First Technology Takes Home Entertaining to the Next Level

 

 

ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J., Aug. 28, 2019 – LG Electronics USA, the most-awarded kitchen appliance brand,1 is redefining the art of home entertaining with the introduction of its latest InstaView™ Door-in-Door® refrigerators – now featuring slow-melting round Craft Ice™ along with crushed and cubed ice, and measured water dispensing technology.1 With four models rolling out at retailers nationwide, this industry-first innovation for refrigerators automatically creates and stores large, slow-melting round ice spheres for upscale, craft drinks at home.

 

LG InstaView Refrigerators with Craft Ice bring one of the hottest – and coolest – beverage trends into the home, automatically making slow-melting round ice (measuring 2 inches in diameter) without the hassle of manually filling and freezing ice molds. With the ability to store up to 25 ice spheres in the freezer drawer bin and auto-replenishment, LG InstaView Refrigerators with Craft Ice represent a game-changer for home entertaining. LG Craft Ice opens a new world for home mixologists and cocktail connoisseurs, while also keeping sodas, lemonade, iced coffee and other drinks, cold longer.

 

“LG is no stranger to offering first-to-market innovations that help make life good with forward-thinking technology for the home,” said David VanderWaal, senior vice president of marketing, LG Electronics USA. “With the addition of LG Craft Ice to our award-winning InstaView Refrigerator lineup, the next step in the evolution of home entertaining is here to aid consumers with useful features sure to impress guests and make hosting easier than ever.”

 

Ice Three Ways, Plus Precise Water Dispensing

InstaView’s dual ice maker produces not only LG’s round Craft Ice in the freezer drawer, but also crushed and cubed ice in the refrigerator door for the perfect signature cocktail. The refrigerator also features an automatic water dispenser that measures the exact amount (4, 8, 16 or 32 ounces) of fresh, filtered water and automatically turns off when done, leaving the guess work out of measuring for drink mixes and recipes.

 

See and Reach Favorites in an Instant

LG InstaView Refrigerators – recognized for their iconic tinted glass panel in the door – allow users to knock twice to illuminate the interior and see inside to choose their favorite grab and go foods before opening the door. The new bin design allows users to adjust shelves up and down with minimal effort.

 

Keep Produce Fresher, Longer

Only LG offers three innovative cooling technologies that work together to extend the life of fruits and vegetables and help keep foods fresh and flavorful. With Smart Cooling, digital sensors and an array of vents allow for total control of cooling settings. InstaView’s new sleek stainless-steel interior helps maintain the desired temperature, with Door-in-Door technology keeping cold air where it should be – inside of the refrigerator.

 

Tap into Smart Features for Everyday Use

With the LG ThinQ™ mobile app (formerly LG SmartThinQ™), users can manage LG smart appliances remotely. Always know if the refrigerator door is left open, and never be caught unprepared by unexpected guests with the ability to make extra ice. Use the app to set fresh food and freezer temperatures or turn IcePlus™ on and off. For added convenience, LG smart refrigerators respond to voice commands via Amazon Alexa and the Google Assistant.
