Samsung stuns at KBIS 2026 with Bespoke AI breakthroughs and Dacor’s Next-Gen Smart Kitchen revolution!
Tech major Samsung Electronics on Tuesday announced it is showcasing its connected, AI-powered kitchen vision at the Kitchen & Bath Industry Show (KBIS) 2026, being held in Orlando, Florida from Feb. 17-19.
Bringing together its Bespoke AI lineup and Dacor, its premium built-in kitchen brand, Samsung is introducing a premium wine culture that redefines modern living with smart storage, sophisticated design and AI innovation1 — setting a new standard for smart and reliable homes.
“The kitchen is evolving into the center of home life, and Samsung continues to introduce intelligent solutions that organically connect appliances, services and everyday experiences,” said Sang Jik Lee, Executive Vice President and Head of the Sales and Marketing Team for the Digital Appliances Business at Samsung Electronics. “At KBIS, we are showing how Dacor redefines modern living by blending functionality, aesthetics and smart technology, setting the future of kitchen — where every detail elevates form and function.”
Dacor’s Premium Wine Culture and the Innovative Design of the ‘Hidden Kitchen’
At the exhibition, a dedicated wall is showcasing Dacor’s refined offerings, developed with wine aficionados in mind.
On display are the 24-Inch Undercounter Wine Cellar, Wine Column and Built-in Wine Dispenser, the last of which holds up to four bottles of wine and features dual temperature zones that preserve wines by maintaining separate recommended storage temperatures for each red and white wine. Additionally, with a simple touch, user can select and serve the appropriate amount of wine.
Dacor is also introducing sleek and organized kitchen designs that seamlessly blend into the overall ambiance of the home when not in use.
These designs emphasize the idea of a “hidden kitchen” concealed within curved columns or furniture and encompassing a complete lineup — a refrigerator, cooktop and the 2025 LUXE RED Design Award-winning 24-Inch Dishwasher — ensuring both practicality and functionality.
Dacor’s premium appliances also support SmartThings connectivity, enabling users to manage key functions through their connected ecosystem.
Bespoke AI: Smart, Connected and Reliable Kitchen Innovation
Also, on display at KBIS is the Bespoke AI Refrigerator Family Hub, which features the innovation AI Vision. Powered by advanced camera-based recognition technology. This allows users to effortlessly check the contents of their refrigerator and efficiently manage ingredient lists.
Previously, the system could recognize up to 37 types of fresh food and 50 types of pre-registered processed food directly on-device.
Samsung plans to enhance this feature to overcome existing limitations, enabling recognition of an even greater variety of food items.
A diverse range of Bespoke AI products — including dishwashers, ovens and laundry appliances — are also on display for KBIS visitors to experience. Connected control through SmartThings2 is a key differentiator of these products, as it allows users to conveniently monitor devices from their smartphones. The seamless harmony among these kitchen appliances is further enhanced by Bixby voice control. For example, a user can stand in front of the refrigerator and ask, “Hi Bixby, can you recommend a recipe based on my food list?” Then, it offers recipes and guided cooking instructions.
Since reliability is a major factor in making a connected ecosystem strong and stable, Samsung has dedicated a part of its exhibit to its commitment to assuring the quality of Bespoke AI products and services that are available to consumers after purchase. Along with regular software updates, Samsung offers Home Appliance Remote Management (HRM), which is a service that can help consumers understand and manage the status of appliances through monitoring, diagnosis and remote service support.
