Award details: https://www.g-mark.org/award/describe/47323?token=ohvBNdOwmJ [Award-winning products] Drum-type washer-dryer "TW-127X7" Award-winning product details ... https: //www.toshiba-lifestyle.co.jp/living/laundries/tw_127x7/ ■ Jury's evaluation comment: A drum-type washer-dryer with a redesigned interface since 2015 without changing the design concept. Keys other than the main switch have disappeared from the operation panel, and it has evolved neatly from the old model. The main buttons are grouped in a fixed footer, the hierarchical structure is simplified, the screen is easy to see, and it is easy to use. The idea of ​​changing the background color of the LCD for each process makes it easy to check the status even from a distance and gives a sense of security. Although it is a model change, it is not always necessary to change it, and the parts that should be changed are changed and steadily evolved. ■ Design features: With the theme of "thinking about people" and "simple beauty," which is a common concept of Toshiba home appliances, everyone in the family can use the washing and drying function with improved response to various needs with peace of mind. I tried to do it. Designed with the idea that by using it in your own way, the finish will be better, you will feel a sense of accomplishment, and the washing will be a richer time for the user. For the screen design, we used a 7-inch color LCD to extract usage scenes from user stories and examined them. When you are in a hurry, you can easily start by selecting the three operation modes of [Washing / Washing / Drying / Drying]. Even when you want to make detailed settings according to the condition of the laundry, the main buttons such as setting and start are grouped in the fixed footer to simplify the hierarchical structure and improve the listability of the screen, making it easier to select the course and change the settings. In addition, by changing the background color for each [washing / rinsing / dehydrating / drying] process, we have considered the ease of use throughout the operation, such as being able to check the condition even from a distance while doing household chores.
