Samsung Electronics Co. will launch its artificial intelligence (AI)-powered integrated washer-dryer, Bespoke AI Combo, as early as later this month in Korea.

According to industry sources on Monday, Samsung Electronics’ online platform, Samsung.com, has initiated a pre-order notification event for the Bespoke AI Combo washer-dryer, running until Thursday.

The Bespoke AI Combo is expected to be launched in Korea first at the end of this month before global release.

In September 2023, Samsung Electronics unveiled a concept model of the all-in-one washer-dryer at the 2023 Internationale Funkausstellung Berlin (IFA), one of Europe’s largest home appliance exhibitions. The finalized product, Bespoke AI Combo, was presented at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas in January 2024.

The washer-and-dryer streamlines laundry processes and boasts over 40 percent higher space efficiency compared to traditional stacked models.

It also offers an AI custom course that tailors washing and drying settings based on laundry specifics like weight, fabric, and soil level.

Equipped with the digital inverter heat pump from the existing Bespoke AI dryer, it delivers drying performance on par with standalone dryers.
