The introduction of the new products to LG Studio's line-up marks a significant milestone in the expansion of the portfolio, doubling the number of Berkus-inspired appliances within the last year. Renowned designer and LG Studio Artistic Advisor, Nate Berkus, has been working with LG's design team for the last two years to ensure the LG Studio line of appliances blends best-in-class innovation with sleek, sophisticated design. The first Berkus-inspired appliances, which debuted in 2015, include a French-door refrigerator featuring LG's award winning Door-in-Door® feature, gas and electric slide-in ranges and an over-the-counter microwave oven.

With the addition of LG Studio's 2016 appliances, Berkus has now contributed to the consistent design palette found throughout the LG Studio portfolio. His design influence can be felt in the distinctive styling of the new appliances, which incorporate timeless, pro-style design features including the stainless steel ice and water dispenser, highly functional LED task lighting and stainless steel metal knobs with sleek SmoothTouch((TM)) glass controls on the control panels of the wall ovens featuring unique red light indicators.

"I believe that a truly successful kitchen is one that marries beautiful design, innovative features and incorporates things that feel personal," said Berkus. "When designing the new LG Studio appliances we sought to combine the highest quality in design with the very best of the best in terms of functionality. From the robust metal knobs and the sleek, timeless stainless steel finish to the integration of LG's most innovative cooking technologies, the new LG Studio appliances will make the perfect statement in your home."

The new 2016 LG Studio suite of appliances includes:

    --  LG Studio 42-inch Side-By-Side Built-In Refrigerator (Model LSSB2692ST):
        The new 42-inch built-in side-by-side LG Studio refrigerator makes an
        impressive statement in any kitchen thanks to its timeless, pro-style
        design featuring a horizontally-brushed stainless-steel finish,
        beautiful interior LED lighting, sleek wave door handle and
        stainless-steel backed tall water and ice dispenser. LG's new
        refrigerator boasts an extra-large capacity of 26.5 cubic feet, allowing
        consumers to store more food than ever before, while delivering energy
        efficiency with its ENERGY STAR® certification. To create a more
        organized and functional interior, the new refrigerator includes Easy
        Moving Door Bins, allowing users to slide the door bins up and down with
        minimal effort so organization is simple and flexible. LG's Slim
        SpacePlus® Ice system, a streamlined ice-making system inside the door,
        frees up usable door bins and offers an obstruction-free top shelf,
        further maximizing storage space. This model also features LG's Smart
        Diagnosis, which interfaces with LG's service center, if needed, to
        diagnose issues and streamline the service process. This model is built
        for the long run, backed by LG's exclusive two-year warranty.
        --  Suggested retail price: $8,799
    --  LG Studio Single- and Double-Wall Ovens (Models LSWS306ST and
        LSWD306ST): The spacious new 4.7-cubic-foot LG Studio wall oven allows
        users to cook like a professional at home. Available in both single- and
        double-wall configurations, these ovens feature a beautiful design
        including stainless steel knobs with SmoothTouch((TM) )glass controls on
        the control panel as well as a brilliant blue oven interior. The new
        oven also features LG's exclusive 4-Mode True Convection technology,
        allowing hot air to flow throughout the oven cavity to maximize heat
        distribution, pre-heat the oven faster and cook meals evenly on every
        rack. The four modes include bake, roast, crisp and healthier roast. To
        maximize safety and ease of use, these models include LG's Gliding Rack
        System - an adjustable full extension rack that glides out effortlessly
        and extends over the open oven door for easy access to food. Users can
        now baste, monitor and take the temperature of foods from a safe
        distance. The ovens also include LG's Hidden Bake, which conceals the
        lower oven bake element to eliminate hard-to-reach areas that collect
        food and spills for easy cleaning. When cooking is finished, cleanup is
        simple with LG's EasyClean® technology, the fastest oven cleaning
        feature on the market. The technology works in three simple steps: users
        simply spray water to the interior walls of the oven, start the
        EasyClean® function to allow the oven to heat up and after 10 quick
        minutes, the mess inside the wall can simply be wiped away. The
        simplified process is a result of LG's innovative oven enamel
        technology, eliminating the need for chemicals or high heat to rid the
        oven of grime.
        --  Suggested retail price: $2,299 (single wall oven model LSWS306ST)
            and $3,499 (double wall oven model LSWD306ST)
    --  LG Studio 30- and 36-inch Gas Cooktops (Models LSCG307ST and
        LSCG367ST):The professional-looking, stainless steel gas cooktop,
        available in 30- and 36-inch models, provides a versatile element that
        can be seamlessly integrated into different sized kitchens and design
        configurations. These cooktops were designed with today's home chef in
        mind, complete with a powerful, dual-stacked center burner, two twin
        burners with a matching griddle and a separate simmer burner, allowing
        flexibility when cooking from boiling to warming all at once. The
        cooktops incorporate LG Studio's pro-style design with a stainless steel
        finish, robust metal knobs, heavy-duty cast iron grates and beautiful
        red LED lighting that illuminates the control knobs when the burner is
        on.
        --  Suggested retail price: $1,299 (30-inch model LSCG307ST) and $1,499
            (36-inch model LSCG367ST)
