Signature Kitchen Suite Headlines 'LG For Builders' Presence At Largest West Coast Homebuilding Show

SAN FRANCISCO, June 27, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- LG Electronics USA kicks off PCBC, the official trade show of the Leading Builders of America, with a broad portfolio of award-winning, high-performing home appliances that cater to the varied needs of the dynamic builder market. Delivering innovation, reliability and outstanding design to any homebuilding or remodeling project, the lineup introduces different styles for every home, budget and life-stage – from luxury, built-in kitchens to entry-level functional kitchen packages, as well as an assortment of laundry appliance offerings, and everything in between.

The centerpiece of the "LG for Builders" presence at PCBC is the new built-in, luxury line Signature Kitchen Suite, which caters to "Technicureans^TM," a new generation of forward-thinking cooks, combining their passion for food with their appreciation for innovation. Since its debut this spring, the line continues to capture industry attention and accolades such as the coveted Red Dot international design awards for its pro-style ranges – including the first-of-its-kind range with built-in sous vide modality, as well as its refrigerators/freezers on display at PCBC:

• Pro-Style Ranges: Home chefs can now enjoy professional-style results with leading-edge connectivity for a convenient, unmatched culinary experience. Signature Kitchen Suite just unveiled a 48-inch dual-fuel range with first-of-its-kind built-in sous vide right on the cooktop, along with induction and gas, delivering the ultimate in luxury, versatility and precision cooking. A 36-inch dual-fuel range option provides a spacious 6.3-cubic-foot capacity steam-assist oven – the largest on the market – with steam and convection cooking to cook food quickly and evenly while steam preserves texture, appearance and taste; its chromium griddle resists scratches and delivers consistent and even heating across the entire surface.
• Refrigeration: Preserving and maintaining the integrity of fresh food is the focus behind Signature Kitchen Suite's refrigeration innovations, including the first-of-its-kind built-in 36-inch French-door refrigerator with a five-mode convertible drawer with temperature zones for chilled wine, deli, meats and seafood, cold drinks, or the option to drop the temperature low to make it a freezer. The brand's built-in column refrigerators and freezers are brilliantly engineered to provide the largest capacity in the industry, featuring 9.6 cubic feet of storage for the 18-inch integrated column freezer and 18.0 cubic feet for the 30-inch integrated column refrigerator. When paired together, they cleanly fit a 48-inch opening to satisfy new construction and replacement application needs.

"Recognizing that better cooking is possible through better thinking, Signature Kitchen Suite was designed with thoughtful, purposeful design to meet the needs of the progressive builder market," said Zach Elkin, general manager for Signature Kitchen Suite and LG for Builders. "After hiring an experienced team with more than 600 years of combined experience and leadership in the field, we aimed to create a truly groundbreaking luxury appliance line with innovations that fulfill the needs of today's home chef."

LG for Builders will display a series of kitchen and laundry lifestyle vignettes featuring products across the LG brand portfolio at PCBC to showcase how LG can help bring builders' visions to life with innovative appliances for every type of home, including different styles, functions, budget, and life-stage. In addition to Signature Kitchen Suite, LG will display:

• LG STUDIO appliances: On display in the sleek black stainless steel finish, this suite of products represents the perfect marriage of high function and high design, combining innovative features with an upgraded design to create a pro-style kitchen.
• LG Brand Kitchen Appliances: This broad line under the famous LG brand combines cutting-edge technologies, unique products and stylish designs, exemplified by LG InstaView™ and Door-in-Door® ENERGY STAR® certified refrigerators, to allow customers to enjoy the latest appliance innovations in an accessible way. A highlight at PCBC is the new LG Matte Black kitchen package, a premium offering that combines the timeless sophistication of stainless steel with a luxe, low-gloss finish that complements any kitchen decor.
• LG Ultimate Laundry Room: The award-winning LG TWINWash™ front-load laundry system offers the power to do large loads of laundry in the large top ENERGY STAR certified washer, while running smaller loads in the SideKick™ pedestal washer below. The innovative LG Styler uses the power of steam to reduce wrinkles and odors and help sanitize garments, sports equipment, household linens, stuffed animals and more in as little as 20 minutes.
