SMEG dishwashers have been completely redesigned with the launch of seven new models, including ADA-compliant options, introducing advanced features for safer, more efficient cleaning. The new collection "addresses the needs of consumers who still wash dishes by hand—42%, according to recent research and the 48% who avoid using fragile glassware daily for fear of damage."
At the heart of this innovation is the 'WinePro' accessory, designed to wash delicate stemware such as wine glasses and decanters with precision and care, even on the lower rack. Flexible tines secure each glass in place, while a dedicated holder ensures safe placement for decanters.
The collection also features SMEG’s 'Multiload' system, allowing flexible arrangements for larger cookware and smaller items alike, the 'Planetarium Wash System,' offering 360° spray coverage for thorough cleaning and 'DryAssist+,' an energy-efficient drying function that automatically opens the door at cycle completion for improved airflow and performance.
