Warm-toned kitchen appliances break away from sea of stainless with modern neutral tint
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 9, 2018 – Today’s consumers do not want to sacrifice efficiency, experience or aesthetic in their homes. Whirlpool® Smart Appliances in Fingerprint Resistant Sunset Bronze provide homeowners with the functionality and design desired for kitchens.
With a brushed, satin finish and rose gold undertones, fingerprint resistant sunset bronze brings a subtle warmth to any kitchen style. Inspired by simple forms, clean lines and comfortable use, the contemporary handle design complements the clean look of modern tableware and drawer pulls. The barrel knob achieves a clean look with emphasis on basic geometry. The warm tone complements a variety of cabinet, countertop and flooring options for results that feel personal to families’ homes. It also modernizes the look and feel of more traditional settings. The soft metallic finish takes on a warm glow as it reflects natural light at different times of day, so families can admire the way appliances look whenever in the kitchen.
“The kitchen is more than a place to prep meals or toss stuff, it’s where families care and reconnect with the people who matter,” said Jennifer Tayebi, communications brand manager, Whirlpool brand. “To help make the kitchen a comfortable gathering space for family and friends, we’re bringing expanded color, texture and handle options to our lineup of purposeful appliances.”
