Space-Saving AI-Powered Washing Machines

The Samsung Bespoke AI 11KG SpaceMax Units are Advanced

— July 22, 2022 — Tech
The Samsung Bespoke AI 11KG SpaceMax washing machines are a new line of appliances for the UK market to increase cleaning capabilities, while also reducing energy use.

The washing machines come in the Series 5, 5+, 6+ and 8 models, which each feature SpaceMax technology and thus have an even larger drum for fitting more clothing or linens. The system makes use of artificial intelligence (AI)-powered ecobubble technology to help enhance the cleaning capabilities without the need for more water. This further enhances the overall efficiency of the washing machines.

VP, Head of Home Appliances at Samsung Electronics (UK & Ireland) Ltd. Dan Harvie spoke on the Samsung Bespoke AI 11KG SpaceMax washing machines saying, "Our new extensive range of large capacity Washing Machines all benefit from being in the most efficient A rated energy class. In addition, by using our innovative SpaceMax™ Technology, we’ve been able to fit a bigger sized drum into a standard 600mm depth cabinet, allowing for greater wash loads of up to 11KG. This will no doubt sound encouraging for busy households with children, especially those who are particularly active outside the home and accumulate more washing than the average!"
