Customizable appliances are a key factor behind these projections, with Samsung’s new bespoke refrigerator line-up sure to be well-received by local audiences looking for personal empowerment.
Comprising four different yet equally enticing bespoke refrigerators, the new line-up includes the 4-Door Flex, 1-Door Column, and 2-Door Bottom-Mount Freezer (BMF) models. Consumers can also choose from a variety of attractive color options that resonate with lifestyles, uplift household appeal, and seamlessly integrate with surroundings. The 4-Door Flex and 2-Door BMF are available in Glam Peach, Glam navy, or Glam white.
