Enabled by LG’s new generation Inverter Direct Drive, the machines’ unique 6 Motion – with a controlled spin speed, precise movement of the inner drum and left and right movement – provides a range of cycles that are optimized for different types of fabrics.
The 6 Motion also reduces washing powder residue on clothes more effectively than regular models. What’s more, the 6 Motion helps clothes soak in highly concentrated powders more evenly, making the machine very effective at protecting against shrin-kage of wooly-textured garments. By delivering a wash that is as gentle as it is thorough, the 6 Motion goes beyond mere washing to ensure the stylish look that consumers want.
Cooking Appliances: Make Cooking More Natural and Healthy with LG’s Revolu-tionary Solar Combi
By showing off its new generation of Lightwave technology appliances at IFA 2010, LG will also be demonstrating how its convenient cooking appliances can deliver chef-quality food with a more natural taste in the comfort of home.
This year, LG is unveiling its Solar Combi, the world’s first oven to be fitted with a Charcoal Heater and T-stabilizer. By using charcoal as its heat source, the new oven enables consumers to cook food that is more natural, and brings healthier, tastier dishes to the table.
The oven’s Charcoal Heater helps maintain a natural flow of heat that penetrates deep into foods while also keeping them moist. This helps make grilled dishes as delicious as anything created in a restaurant. Meanwhile, the Naturalflow Convention and T-stabilizer let consumers cook gourmet food more easily by adjusting the optimal tem-perature and maintaining more even cooking. Just as important, the Solar Combi cuts energy bills by up to 30 percent compared with conventional ovens, while also saving on cooking time.

With the world’s first motorized dust compressing system, the KOMPRESSOR Elite ef-fectively reduces dust particles escaping back into the atmosphere, thus creating a cleaner and healthier home environment. In addition, a unique Power Punch flushes out mites and fine dust by tapping the surface of bedding nearly 3,000 times a minute.
In addition, the Hom-Bot, LG’s unrivaled robotic vacuum cleaner, helps consumers clean the entire floor with a minimum of effort. With its unique combination of a cam-era, ultrasonic and infrared sensors, the robotic vacuum cleaner can find its way into every nook and corner. Thanks to its unique dual camera sensors, the machine navigates to any spot in the home and cleans faster and smarter than other robotic cleaners. Its low noise levels to 60dB(A) also makes cleaning less intrusive. When finished, the Hom-Bot returns automatically to its docking station to recharge its battery. The Hom-Bot uses long-lasting, Li-PB battery without any memory effect, contrary to Ni-MH battery used by most robotic cleaners. LG Hom-bot is another way in which LG’s smart innovations are enriching consumers’ lives and leading the way to easier, less time-consuming chores.
Dishwashers: Superb Cleaning Performance with TrueSteam Technology
At this year’s IFA, LG will also be launching its new dishwasher, featuring the compa-ny’s unparalleled Inverter Direct Drive and TrueSteam technologies, whose deep-down cleaning makes worries about prewashing a thing of the past.

Making cleaning effortless and efficient, the Hom-Bot’s smart features mean that cus-tomers need hardly move, while the vacuum cleaner gets on with the work of cleaning. Robotic cleaners are dynamic, space-aware devices that need to move in a three-dimensional environment. When a robotic cleaner is making its way around a room, a single obstacle – such as maneuvering around a chair – requires significant adjustment to its movements. To handle these kinds of demands, the Hom-Bot, LG’s most state-of-the-art robotic cleaner yet, boasts exceptional intelligence and sensory systems.
Using its unique dual-camera sensors, LG Hom-Bot navigates around the area to be cleaned by calculating many times per second the best path for maximum cleaning. And since Hom-Bot remembers where it has been, it cleans faster and more efficiently than other robotic cleaners on the market. Better yet, thanks to its low noise levels (60dB(A)), consumers can enjoy Hom-Bot’s cleaning without distraction.
HomeBot is not available at Swiss Market for the moment.
Cleaner, smarter and more hygienic, LG's new KOMPRESSOR Elite even captures hidden dust and dirt
LG Electronics (LG) will be showcasing the KOMPRESSOR Elite, its latest premium vacuum cleaner, at IFA 2010 in Berlin. In addition to the world’s first motorised compressor, the KOMPRESSOR vacuum cleaner comes with the most advanced, health-conscious technology, making cleaning more thorough than ever by cleaning up hidden dirt and grime from the floor.
With the world’s first motorised dust compressing system, LG’s KOMPRESSOR helps deliver a deep-down clean, thanks to long-lasting suction power, and simple and hygienic dust control. By compressing dust into compact wedges, the KOMPRESSOR significant-ly reduces dust cloud during disposal, meaning less effort emptying the bin.
By adding enhanced health-conscious features – such as the «Power Punch» mattress tool, steam mopping and the HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filtration system – the KOMPRESSOR Elite delivers more than just exceptional vacuuming. As well as extract-ing pollutants and irritants from the air, these exceptional features steam clean the floor – picking up stubborn grime that may be lurking – making the KOMPRESSOR Elite ideal for health-conscious consumers everywhere.
«LG always seeks to develop better cleaning technologies that help our consumers live healthier and more hygienic lives,» said Young-ha Lee, President and CEO of LG Elec-tronics Home Appliance Company. «LG’s unique, innovative KOMPRESSOR technolo-gy is a prime example of this, with health-conscious features such as the Power Punch that create a cleaner home environment by capturing hidden dirt and dust1 lurking in your home. For the style-conscious consumer who also pursues a healthy lifestyle, LG’s KOMPRESSOR Elite meets their needs through its stylish design and ergonomic shape. With less effort and time spent for cleaning, consumers will have more quality time to themselves.»
Care for Your Family with Health-Conscious Features
The KOMPRESSOR Elite’s unique «Power Punch» feature greatly reduces mites and fine dust by punching the surface of bedding nearly 3,000 times a minute, giving con-sumers greater peace of mind about the hygiene of their home fabrics. Further augment-ing the health-conscious features, a Steam Mop delivers a chemical-free, deep steam clean through an all-in-one nozzle that vacuums and mops at the same time. As well as providing a healthier clean, the Steam Mop greatly reduces cleaning time, too.
The KOMPRESSOR Elite is also fitted with highly efficient HEPA filtration system, which traps dust particles and allergens measuring 0.3 microns or smaller – comfortably powerful enough to capture the particles in cigarette smoke. These benefits are especially helpful for households with pets, young children or people suffering from skin allergies.
Less Energy Consumption, More Silent Operation
With its low power consumption motor, the LG KOMPRESSOR Elite allows consumers to save money in electricity bills while also helping out with the environment. In addition, with a dual noise absorber that encases the motor, the LG KOMPRESSOR Elite signifi-cantly reduces cleaning noise levels from 78 dB(A) to 72 dB(A) for more silent LG vac-uum cleaning compared to previous generation models. KOMPRESSOR Elite is not available at Swiss Market for the moment.
Makes Cleaning More Enjoyable
Among the KOMPRESSOR Elite’s other features, advanced bearing wheels reduce fric-tion making it easier to move the machine, while a 9-metre power cable allows consum-ers to clean even large rooms without having to unplug and plug in the vacuum cleaner. Furthermore, the Turbo Cyclone System gathers dust into a simple single container before the air is filtered, thereby enhancing the performance of the compressor. Taken to-gether, all these features add up to what LG’s best vacuum cleaner is yet.
