LG enters cooking category with new built-in range

LG Electronics Australia (LG) has entered the cooking category with the introduction of a new range of built-in cooking appliances, designed to meet the evolving needs of modern Australian kitchens. Introducing a lineup of eight ovens, four induction cooktops, and two rangehoods, the new range delivers advanced technology and sleek design, aiming to redefine the cooking experience in Australian homes.

LG’s entry into the built-in cooking market leverages its prime position in other kitchen appliances, including refrigerators and dishwashers, to create a smart and integrated kitchen ecosystem for Australian customers.

Recognised with the 2023 iF Design Award and 2023 Red Dot Award for excellence in design and technology¹, the company’s new built-in oven range puts cohesive design at the forefront. Designed to seamlessly integrate and complete the LG kitchen experience, the new line-up continues the company’s signature style and innovation.  

By reprising classic LG features including InstaView technology and the matte black finish available across its wider range of appliances, LG has doubled down on cohesive design both in aesthetics and premium quality.

“Consumers are increasingly seeking design-conscious appliances that reflect their personal style and blend seamlessly together. Kitchens, being the heart of the home, should mirror this desire for cohesive aesthetics and functionality,” LG Electronics Australia general manager of sales for home appliances, Frank Malcaus said.

“The growing appetite for smart, connected homes has seen LG leverage its leadership in innovative technology to unlock new levels of convenience and creativity in the kitchen. Our LG ThinQ² ecosystem transforms the kitchen into a smart integrated space, catering to the evolving needs of Australian users.

“Building on the confidence many Australians have developed with home cooking in recent years, our new range offers tailored cooking experiences enabled by smart features, sparking joy in everyday moments.”

Innovative technology for modern kitchens

Reflecting the growing demand for smart homes, the latest range of ovens, induction cooktops and rangehoods are equipped to seamlessly integrate with the LG ThinQ² ecosystem, offering simplicity and control with smart cooking. Users can monitor, pre-heat, and adjust cooking settings remotely via the LG ThinQ app, and simplify meal prep with pre-programmed everyday recipes loaded into their ovens².  

Meanwhile, users can easily recreate their favourite recipes at the click of a button with the My Recipe feature via the LG ThinQ app². The feature allows users to record a list of ingredients, the method, and pre-program up to three cooking cycles.

Across LG rangehoods, the LG ThinQ Auto-Hood Activation feature automatically synchronises with compatible LG cooktops to adjust extraction speed, conveniently matching cooktop settings for optimal performance². This connectivity helps users manage their cooking with ease, making every day meal preparation more efficient and enjoyable.

Boasting powerful 6-in-1 Pro Cooking versatility, the new LG Series 9 InstaView Full Steam Ovens enable users to unlock their culinary creativity by effortlessly switching between cooking settings including convection baking, steaming, air frying, sous vide, dehydrating, and pizza perfection. By providing access to cooking methods which helps users craft restaurant-quality results at home, users can enjoy a variety of foods including roast chicken, steamed fish, crispy fries and healthy dehydrated snacks, in one convenient appliance.

User-centric design for convenience

Doubling down on user-centric design features that enhance convenience, the LG InstaView feature allows users to check on cooking progress with two quick knocks on the oven glass without opening the door. This feature adds an element of convenience and fun, transforming the cooking process into an enjoyable experience.

LG has also introduced the Blue EasyClean feature on its InstaView ovens to make clean up effortless. The power of steam and LG’s new patented Blue EasyClean hydrophilic enamel work together during a quick 10-minute cycle³. Without any harmful chemicals or high temperatures, users can save time and effort.
