Located in the Smart Home section at the Sands Expo center, the Whirlpool^® Every day, care^® experience will take place in booth #41730, where attendees can experience award-winning product innovations:

• The Whirlpool^® booth will showcase the latest in Whirlpool^® Smart Appliances, which harmonize Whirlpool features and appliances to provide families control from anywhere:
• The Fingerprint-Resistant Smart Kitchen Suite helps families organize, schedule, cook and clean whether at home or on the go through remote controls and notifications. The four-piece collection – refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave and stove – provides personalized care by learning what a family cooks, how they cook it, and automatically recommending customized presets so family favorites are just a click away[1]. In addition, some of these smart appliances learn how families are using the features, making them easier and quicker to use over time.
• To make cooking even more convenient, anticipated industry-first Scan-to-Cook technology sends the right cooking instructions and settings straight to the appliance every time, recognizing food when its UPC barcode is scanned with a mobile phone [1].
• The Whirlpool booth will also offer visitors a chance to explore breakthrough new products from WLabs, Whirlpool Corporation’s innovation incubator. Debuting at the show is the revolutionary Zera^™ Food Recycler, the third innovation from WLabs. Built to convert household food waste into homemade fertilizer, the Zera^™ Food Recycler can break down a week’s worth of the average family’s food waste within 24 hours[2] – and 95 percent of a typical family’s food waste overall. Visitors will also have the opportunity to interact with Zera^™ through the Whirlpool^® mobile app[1] and sign up for pre-orders of the product through Indiegogo starting January 6. Also on display from WLabs will be the Vessi^™ Beer Fermentor and Dispenser system. Launched earlier in 2016, the Vessi^™ system ferments, carbonates and dispenses home-brewed beer in as little as seven days[3]. 
• Through the groundbreaking Care Counts^™ program, Whirlpool^® provides students with access to clean clothes and studies the connection between clean clothes, attendance rates and chronic absenteeism. Visitors to the booth will be able to see how Whirlpool^® is using technology to track the impact of clean clothes on a student’s education.

Whirlpool brand is also unveiling a new logo at CES^® 2017. The new logo reinforces simplicity and is designed to showcase what Whirlpool delivers - appliances that save time and help families care for each other. While daily responsibilities may seem insignificant and tedious, they are an impactful expression of love and play a fundamental role in shaping the people we love and the world in which we live. The new logo will be featured on Whirlpool brand appliances and all assets and materials in the future.

Whirlpool Corporation and Whirlpool brand also are bringing home six International Consumer Technology Association (CTA)^™ 2017 CES^® Innovation Awards for new and innovative kitchen and laundry products, including the Zera^™ Food Recycler by WLabs of Whirlpool Corporation, Whirlpool^® 2-in-1 Over the Range Microwave Convection Oven, Whirlpool^® French Door-within-Door Refrigerator and the Whirlpool^® Smart All-in-One Care^™ Washer and Dryer Combo.
