What are white goods? What are black appliances?

White goods refer to products that can replace people to do housework.

Black household appliances can provide entertainment, such as color TV and stereo.

As the name implies, white goods are white goods. Because there are many electrical appliances in the home, and most of them are huge, early consumers like to choose inconspicuous white when buying household appliances. Even though home appliances are colorful now, many people still call them white goods.

Black electricity and white electricity are the classification methods in China, but from another perspective, black electricity and white electricity are also obviously different: black electricity products bring people entertainment and leisure, while white electricity products reduce people's labor intensity (such as washing machines and some kitchen appliances), improve living environment and improve material living standards (such as air conditioners and refrigerators).

Black and white electricity can also be distinguished from its working principle and core components. Black electricity is more through electronic components, circuit boards and so on. White electricity is more about converting electric energy into heat energy and kinetic energy through motors.

In recent years, all kinds of household appliances have also appeared the phenomenon of mutual penetration and blending, such as network household appliances, refrigerators with LCD TVs and so on.
