• Now available for the first time in the United States, these tool-free accessories include easy-grip handles for people with limited strength or mobility to open the laundry detergent drawer and washer and dryer doors, and an easy-to-use dial for washing machine controls.

• Developed under LG's "Design for All" initiative, these accessories were created through intensive research and hands-on testing.

ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J., June 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Furthering its vision of a more inclusive home, LG Electronics USA has introduced the "LG Comfort Kit" for its U.S. laundry appliance lineup, making its inclusive design philosophy a reality in one of the most essential rooms in the house.

Previewed at CES® 2026 and launched in the United States today, the new LG Comfort Kit accessories help make the laundry experience easier for a wide range of users, including seniors and individuals with varying mobility and dexterity needs.

To celebrate the launch and lower the barrier to an accommodating home, LG is introducing a special offer: purchase an eligible LG front-load washer, dryer, WashTower™, or WashCombo™ and receive up to 3 free LG Comfort Kit accessories including the LG Easy Door Handle (AAA30793450), LG Easy Drawer Handle (AAA30793452) and LG Easy Ball (AAA30793454), valid through 8/19/2026^*.For existing LG owners, the accessories are also available for individual purchase on LG.com.

The LG Comfort Kit lineup offers three accessories for laundry appliances, each priced at $19.99 and designed to be attached easily without tools:

• LG Comfort Kit Door Easy Handle — Attaches directly to the appliance door, allowing users to open their washer or dryer without gripping the pocket handle. Ideal for individuals with limited grip strength or fine motor challenges, this Easy Handle is compatible with select LG WashTower, WashCombo™ and front-load washer and dryer models.
• LG Comfort Kit Drawer Easy Handle — Attaches to the detergent dispenser drawer, making it easier to pull open for users who find gripping difficult. This accessory is compatible with select LG WashTower, LG WashCombo and front-load washer and dryer models.
• LG Comfort Kit Easy Ball — Snaps directly onto existing control dials, creating a larger, easier-to-grip surface that simplifies cycle selection for users with limited dexterity. Compatible with select LG WashCombo and front-load washer and dryer models.

The LG Comfort Kit is part of LG's broader "Design for All" initiative, a key pillar of the company's "Better Life for All" global ESG vision. According to John I. Taylor, Senior Vice President at LG Electronics USA, the initiative is built around the belief that technology should be intuitive, approachable and accessible for people of all ages and abilities.

"LG Comfort Kit accessories exemplify how real-world user concerns directly inform our Design for All strategy," said Taylor. "Beyond physical products, this initiative relies on our established, multi-layered accessibility support ecosystem, which includes sign language customer service options and our long-standing distribution of Braille user manuals and tactile stickers."

While the Comfort Kit represents a new hardware expansion, LG's tactile stickers and Braille owner's manuals are part of an ongoing program. These adaptive resources remain available to consumers and can be requested directly through LG Customer Service.
