A new search with Guidyu CEM

The Guidyu CEM search technology empowers you to search more freely and efficiently, including when using unclear words or expressions specific to your region. On top of this, the more you search, the more the system understand you, as the Guidyu CEM technology is able to learn in real-time!

A few example searches:

  • cheap fridge
  • luxury washer
  • small range
  • chimney hood broan
  • big coffee machine
  • blue dryer
  • microwave on special
  • portable ac
  • energystar washer

And if you don’t know what to search for, just type one single letter and let the system suggest the completion of your search for you !

The Search Filter

The search filter is a powerful tool of the Guidyu CEM technology which allows you to modify your search criteria dynamically. Unlike other systems, Guidyu CEM extract search criteria from your textual query in a structured way, allowing you to modify them easily!

For example, if you search "Cheap washer", you can easily see what is the assortment of washers of middle and high class by changing your selection in the search filter!

Contextual Guidance

Nobody likes to manually scan hundreds of search results! With the contextual guidance system of the Guidyu CEM technology, it is no longer a worry! You can simply answer to the asked questions, or choose another one, and you will very quickly be guided to a short list of one or two products only!

This process also works if you start with a textual search, for example, if you are looking for "KitchenAid fridge”, the first question you will be asked is the layout of doors and the freezer, like when you speak with a true expert in one of our stores!

Personalized Search Recommendations

The search recommendations allow you to save a precious time in cases where there are many possible choices. Based on your behavior in your past searches, the Guidyu CEM technology identifies your interest and uses it to make your life easier!

For example, if you've already search for black Amana stove, a simple search for "fridge" will allow the system to recommend the black Amana refrigerators! Convenient, no?

Complementary products recommendations

Many products are often bought together and many bundles are available, but there is often too much choice. The recommendation of additional product allows you to immediately see the ones which are the best for you!

For example, if you are looking for a stove on special, and you select an offer from the Frigidaire brand, the Guidyu CEM technology will suggest complementary products that match these criteria in particular (of the same brand and also on special). If you chose the same product because of its color, recommendations of black Frigidaire ranges would then be displayed!

Comparison recommendations as overview

Recommendations as overview of the search filter provide you a customized selection of products, allowing you to compare in a glance your selection with other attractive offers before making your final choice.

For example, if you search an Amana refrigerator and you select the price range '1250$ to 1500$', a simple drag of your mouse over the other price ranges gives you an immediate overview of the available products! < / p>

The suggestion of alternative choices

Who would not want a large refrigerator with all options at low prices or a range of your favorite brand in exactly the right color and size? the Guidyu CEM technology does not grant these wishes magically, but will propose you alternatives in a direct and structured way!

For example, if you are looking for a cheap black fridge and we do not offer any currently, you will immediately see the almost similar possibilities without having to make several more trial and error searches!

Find the perfect dishwasher

Find the perfect dishwasher

Technology never stops evolving. Every day, a new product appears on the market to make our lives easier. And dishwashers are no different. In fact, today they’re more powerful, efficient and practical than ever!

However, before choosing a model, you should take the time to think about your needs and explore all possible options. That way, you’ll be sure your purchase is perfect for you!

A question of space and layout

You’ll find both slide-in and free-standing models in-store. Very popular, slide-ins simply fit in under the kitchen counter, to avoid pointlessly cluttering your space. Standard dishwashers are 24 inches wide, while compact models are 18 inches wide making them ideal for two- to three-person households or small kitchens.

Free-standing models are practical if you’ve no space for a dishwasher under the counter and you don’t want to waste cupboard space to make room for one. Plus, they’re easy to move around with their castors. To use, simply hook them up to the kitchen faucet.

Important note: number of place settings

The capacity of a dishwasher is an important note to consider when you choose a model, as someone living alone doesn’t have the same needs as a family with three children. Usually, the capacity is based on the number of place settings that can comfortably fit (one place setting includes a full service for one person).

For example, compact models generally hold a maximum of 8 place settings. Larger models hold up to 16. That said, most standard dishwashers can hold at least 12 place settings. Obviously, the capacity of each model depends on the size of the tub. Note that the design of the inside of the dishwasher can also play a role.

Good to know: When you evaluate your needs, think of the oversized items that you’ll wash often and that will take up more space in the tub.

The capacity to always clean effectively

More and more technological, dishwashers often have advanced wash cycles. Multi-step systems and wash arms with numerous jets, for example, make it easier to dislodge food residue. There are even models that are “intelligent”. Equipped with electronic sensors, they determine the amount of water and soap required, and the temperature and length of the wash depending on, among other factors, how dirty the dishes are.

Models consuming less and less energy

Dishwashers have greatly evolved from an energy efficiency point of view over the last 10 years. Current models are less energy consuming, reducing your electricity bill at the same time. They also use less soap and water, helping to preserve this valuable natural resource. Energy efficient models may well be more expensive to buy. But the savings made in the long term ensure a big return on investment.

So, if you’re looking for a greener choice, look for ENERGY STAR qualified models in-store. They exceed federal regulations by 10 to 50 % depending on the categories, in terms of energy use.
