With just a few weeks until the holidays, home preparations for the festivities are in full swing. Samsung has everything you need to get started, its line of home appliances ready to make chores—from laundering specialty textiles to whipping up a sumptuous noche buena feast—more effortless!

Dream of a Sparkling-Clean Christmas

With all the get-togethers and last-minute errands during the holiday season, doing the laundry often takes a back seat. Eventually, piles of clothes snowball into a mountain of laundry that seems impossible to finish.

Luckily, you can leave it to Samsung’s washer and dryer to ease your burden and achieve the whitest whites and freshest clothes. The 12+7kg Laundry Front-load Washer Dryer AI Ecobubble™ ensures effective washing with AI Ecobubble™ technology that mixes water, air, and detergent to fight stains and protect the fabric.

The AI Wash & Dry™ feature makes for intelligent laundry, automatically adjusting the amount of detergent and water for washing, and the drying process according to the fabric and weight of your load.

Serve Up a Delectable Feast

Food is arguably the centerpiece of any holiday celebration at home, where family and friends come together to fill their stomachs with delicious food and hearts with laughter. However, before the table is spread and guests are ready to be fed, is the formidable task of preparing each dish.

Despite the hustle and bustle in the kitchen, Samsung’s Side-by-Side Refrigerator can keep everything organized thanks to its smart organization solution, SpaceMax™ Technology. The refrigerator’s space fits every ingredient while using a minimal amount of high-efficiency insulation.

If you’re looking to whip up a variety of dishes, the Samsung All-In-One Smart Oven lets you do it all. Featuring several cooking options such as grill, steaming, air frying, oven cooking, microwaving, and fermentation, the Smart Oven allows you to be adventurous and try out different recipes minus the extra tools.

Keep it Cool and Cozy

There's nothing like the refreshing feel of cool, crisp air at home during get-togethers! Even with the Philippines’ tropical climate, you can still enjoy the breeze of winter with Samsung’s WindFree™ air conditioners.

The 2.5 HP WindFree™ Air Conditioner Wall-mount AI Auto Cooling and WindFree™ Air Conditioner Wall-mount SmartThings are developed with advanced cooling technology, combining innovative WindFree™ technology and artificial intelligence (AI) to understand and satisfy your cooling needs. By dispersing air through 23,000 micro air holes, it gently and evenly cools every corner of a room without unpleasant cold spots or drafts. It also intelligently analyzes the room conditions and your usage patterns to rapidly reach and maintain the ideal temperature for you.

To keep your energy use in check, you can connect your air conditioner to the SmartThings app as well for effortless tracking, monitoring, and control of your air conditioner.
