PROMOTIONAL FEATURE
It's not just you: from the weekly shop to your streaming TV service, everything is getting more expensive. That’s why people are trying to find ways to fight the ever-increasing cost of living ― and Samsung is ready to help you.
In 2024, Samsung is ushering in a new type of transformation in the home, through appliances that are ingeniously designed to save both your time and (electrical) energy costs. These devices free you up at home so that you can focus on the things that really matter. One could say they are the hidden heroes of home.
Your children have been playing outside, and now their clothes are absolutely covered in dirt and grass stains. All of a sudden, you now have a mountainous task ahead of you.
To deal with this kind of situation, Samsung's BESPOKE AI Washer, which uses up to 40% less energy than the minimum requirements for a Class A rating,1 is up to the challenge.
We're now past summer and heading into another power-hungry season, winter. You want to make sure your food is in its best condition, but you also want to keep your electricity bill reasonable. Fortunately, Samsung has you covered with its latest Extra Wide Bottom Mount Freezer,3 which has achieved an A rating according to EU energy standards. While cooling effectively, it uses up to 55.9% less energy than Samsung’s conventional model,4 thanks to its new and advanced AI Inverter compressor.5
Through several years of intense development, the compressor has been redesigned to keep its power longer, using less energy6 while maintaining moderate temperatures in the fridge. Who knew a refrigerator could be this “cool”?

You can find the little secret that delivers this high level of energy efficiency inside the drum. Samsung's Bubble Shot is like an archer that shoots water directly onto your clothes and bedding, ensuring that the detergent penetrates the fibres. Plus, it teams up with its sidekick Ecobubble to enhance washing performance.
Energy efficiency is not the only way this washer rises above the rest. The machine has AI Wash, which uses a mix of advanced sensors and machine learning to monitor your wash, detecting its weight, fabric softness, and even turbidity — it makes these complicated measurements and intelligently dispenses an excellent mix of water and detergent.2 And AI Wash doesn't stop when the washing starts; it constantly monitors the laundry every single time, using proper amount of detergent.
And what about the cleanup? Well, the Bespoke Dishwasher7 with extra energy efficiency will make easy work of that, bringing effective performance while saving up to 10% more energy than the A energy rating requirements.8 Samsung brings two superpowers that boost performance along with it: WaterJet Clean and the Active Fan Dry system.
First, WaterJet Clean delivers intensive cleaning from every angle with rotating dual wash arms. It generates a unique flow path to make the product exceptionally power efficient, without compromising the cleaning performance.
The Active Fan Dry system9 is a different type of superpower, improving internal air circulation. It uses two fans on the walls to blow gentle and moderate air during the drying process. This airflow helps evaporate moisture, requiring less latent heat10 from the rinsing water. The final product is a neatly cleaned cycle with less energy spent.
You just got a new puppy. She’s the cutest little thing you’ve ever seen, but there’s one problem: she’s not housebroken yet and as untrained puppies do, she just made a mess on your living room floor. Shocked, you jumped to your feet to try to get her to stop, but as you did, you tipped over your potted plant and dirt spilled all over. Now you’ve got two messes to deal with.
But have no fear, the Bespoke Jet Bot Combo AI is here! This new robot vacuum and mop cleaner brings multiple AI-enhanced features to specifically target your messes, making for a cleaner home without you having to make much of an effort. So get ready to make room in your heart for not only your new puppy, but also your vacuum cleaner.
Thanks to AI Object Recognition, the Bespoke Jet Bot Combo AI robot vacuum cleans your home carefully and efficiently by identifying objects, stains, and rugs. That includes pet messes; AI Object Recognition recognizes11 them and zips and dashes around to clean elsewhere, even if they’re in the way.12 Spatial Recognition technology identifies appliances and furniture and shows them on a map with recommended names for each mapped area.13 Just like how a superhero cleans up the streets, Stained Area Deep Cleaning identifies stains14 and cleans the floor.
Every hero needs to rest and recharge after a tough day of work, though, and for heroes like the Bespoke Jet Bot Combo AI, this needs to be done while saving energy costs. This is where Optimal Charging comes in handy. This SmartThings feature lets you automatically charge your robot cleaner outside of peak hours. So your high-tech superhero’s lair is not just regenerative, it can work in a cost-efficient way.
