Maytag Provides Innovative Solutions to Make Everyday Tasks Easier
New Product Introductions at Kitchen/Bath Trade Show Aim for
Simplicity, Solving Real Consumer Problems and Making Life Easier
CHICAGO, April 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Homeowners just aren't
wowed by glitzy bells and whistles, anymore. Today, the secret to
piquing the interest of consumers is: make it simple. (Logo:
http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20000505/MYGLOGO ) In keeping
with that premise, Maytag Corporation (NYSE:MYG) is introducing a
host of new products at the 2004 Kitchen/Bath Industry Show (K/BIS)
that seek to make life easier for consumers. The trade show runs
April 2-4 at Chicago's McCormick Place. The innovations range from
a breakthrough laundry product that deodorizes clothes without
washing them to a cooking product that increases cooking capacity
and performance without taking up extra space. All told, the
products paint a clear picture of Maytag Corporation's dedication
to creating the everyday innovations consumers want. "People have
enough frustration and confusion in their lives," said Bill Beer,
president of Maytag Appliances. "They aren't necessarily looking
for the latest gizmo or some cutting-edge technology. They want
appliances that cut down work time, eliminate effort and make life
easier. With products like our Maytag(R) Neptune(R) Drying Center
and our Jenn-Air(R) French Door Refrigerator, Maytag is responding
to that consumer demand in a way no other manufacturercan match."
Here is an overview of the key Maytag appliance introductions at
K/BIS. Jenn-Air(R) Brand French Door Refrigerator Maytag has
introduced its first cabinet depth Jenn-Air(R) French Door
refrigerator. The refrigerator contains a pullout bottom-freezer
drawer and side-by-side doors for the fresh food compartment. This
unique configuration not only provides wide storage spaces for both
fresh food and frozen items, but also dramatically reduces the
amount of space needed for the swing of the door. This allows it to
fit into small kitchens and island installations. Dual Fuel, Double
Oven Range The Jenn-Air(R) Dual Fuel, Double Oven Range gives home
cooks the tools that professional chefs have been using for years -
separate fuel sources and multiple ovens - in the 30-inch range
configuration that is a fixture in American homes. This allows
passionate cooks to enjoy the performance and convenience of a
dual-fuel, double oven product, without the need for remodeling.
The Dual Fuel, Double Oven Range is a 30-inch free-standing range
that features a high-performance gas cooktop and two electronic
ovens, allowing people to cook two dishes at different temperatures
simultaneously. Maytag(R) Brand Maytag(R) Neptune(R) Drying Center
The Maytag(R) Neptune(R) Drying Center pairs a tumble dryer with
the convenience of an upper drying cabinet that minimizes
shrinkage, speeds up the drying process, reduces wrinkles,
eliminates odors and refreshes clothes - saving time and money. The
multipurpose design, which fits in about the same space as a
standard dryer, responds to consumers' desire for better garment
care from their dryers. Clothes that consumers normally hang or lay
flat to dry can now be dried or refreshed in the Maytag Neptune
Drying Center. Maytag(R) Neptune(R) Top-Load The Maytag(R)
Neptune(R) Top-Load, a top-loading high-efficiency washing machine,
provides the cleaning power, fabric care and conservation benefits
of a front-load washer but in a convenient top-loading
configuration that most consumers prefer. Its design completely
does away with the traditional agitator that sits in the center of
the washtub and instead uses revolutionary wash technology to
combine powerful cleaning with gentle fabric care. Maytag(R)
Under-Counter Laundry Whether they live in a four-bedroom home or a
cramped studio downtown, more consumers are looking for laundry
appliances that don't take up valuable space in their home.
Measuring 24 inches wide and 33.5 inches high, the new Maytag
compact front-load washer and dryer slides snugly under any
standard- height kitchen counter or tight laundry workspaces where
regular-sized front- load washers just won't fit. The pair also can
be stacked one on top of the other in small apartments and condos
where floor space may be a challenge. While it's small in size, the
compact front-load washer and dryer is big on features. The new
washer model, with 2.54 cubic feet of capacity, offers a clean,
white exterior finish and electronic touch-button operation of four
individual spin speeds (500, 800, 1,000 and 1,200 rpm). Other
features include a premium stainless steel wash basket plus 20 wash
cycles designed for all types of load and fabrics from extra dirty
to extra delicate. The compact dryer offers 4.0 cubic feet of
capacity - making it capable of handling a variety of load sizes.
The under-counter laundry products will be available this fall.
Amana(R) Brand French Door Refrigerator Amana, which helped create
the bottom-freezer refrigerator category, is also introducing a
French Door Bottom-Freezer Refrigerator. K/BIS attendees will be
the first to see the new bottom-freezer model featuring
side-by-side doors that make access to the fresh food compartment
easier than ever before. With convenient features such as the Easy
Fill(TM) internal water dispenser system, touch-pad controls to set
the temperature in the refrigerator and freezer, and EasyGlide(TM)
shelves, the Amana(R) French Door Bottom-Freezer provides consumers
with the conveniences they want in the popular format they love.
