LG Electronics' InstaView Refrigerator Reaches 5 Million Global Sales

LG Electronics announced that its InstaView (also marketed as “knock‑on”) refrigerator has surpassed 5.3 million units sold worldwide since its launch in 2016. The milestone reflects an average rate of roughly one unit per minute over ten years. Sales are led by North America, accounting for about 30% of total volume, with Europe contributing around 20%, while emerging markets in Asia and Latin America are increasing their share.

Company officials highlighted the product’s unique glass panel that turns transparent when tapped, offering users a view of the interior without opening the door. Executive Kim Jae‑il of the Kitchen Solutions division said the achievement underscores LG’s focus on AI‑driven, innovative kitchen technologies that enhance consumer convenience.
