Doing some research about appliances, we bumped into this story in Whirlpool’s press room: Seems like the company is considering introducing a new color, “Sunset Bronze.”
I’m kinda into this Sunset Bronze, because it’s like the drawer fronts in American Brand Pioneer kitchens married the metal dome of my vintage Imperialite pendant light and gave birth to a rosy love child. I’m not in the market for new appliances myself, but if I were working on a retro kitchen project, I might play around with a mood board that considered these. The are different. And they are warm.
The Whirlpool’s PR rep was very helpful in supplying images, but seemed to be towing the line on whether the company is even bringing these to market. I think the story is, Whirlpool showed off this color at some trade show to gauge interest, and now they need to decide. Officially, Whirlpool told us, “We received tremendous positive response to the introduction of Sunset Bronze and are looking forward to bringing it to market in the future. Although we do not have a hard launch date yet, please continue to check Whirlpool.com for updates.” Whether this color makes the cut or not, it is nice to see a major mainstream manufacturer considering mass market options other than stainless, black and white.

When can I get these? This so much better than the stainless steel look, which I can’t even think about.

I have a stacked slate wall in my kitchen and a copper sink. I think these appliances would look great. I hope these will be marketed in the next year.

If you wait long enough, another company may give it a try. Everyone I”ve talked to about this loved it.
Nilsa Jardim says
This color is exactly what I have been looking for. Please let me know where in the Orlando, Florida area I can find it.

Not introduced yet — not sure it will be…

I can’t wait for this color to come out.
What are you guys waiting for?
I am so disappointed is it not available yet.
Cheryl says
I like it… I’d like it even more, if it read more copper than bronze…
