Disclosed herein is a cooking appliance capable of having improved aesthetics by reducing a size of an air outlet provided in a front side of a cabinet. The cooking appliance comprises a cabinet, a cooking chamber located inside the cabinet and comprising an open front side, a door configured to open and close the open front side of the cooking chamber, a blower fan disposed above the cooking chamber to blow air, an air outlet disposed in a gap between an upper end of the door and the cabinet, a duct provided to guide the air blown by the blower fan to the air outlet, and a circulation duct provided to connect the duct and a side of the blower fan to allow a portion of the air, which moves to the air outlet by the blower fan, to be re-introduced into the blower fan.

Proposed is a home appliance which allows a reception space defined therein to be seen from the outside through a viewing window without opening a door. In the home appliance, the viewing window is mounted to a door, and when a user knocks on the door, a vibration detection signal corresponding to vibration generated by the user’s knock is processed so as to accurately determine whether there is the vibration by the knock. Moreover, when the vibration generated by the knock is detected, the inside of the reception space is illuminated such that the inside of the reception space can be seen from the outside through the viewing window. Therefore, the user can see the inside of the reception space by a simple movement even without opening the door.

Aspects of the disclosure generally relate to an insulation film, including a thermal insulation film or an insulation film for a cooking appliance. The insulation film can include a substrate, a first layer comprising silver nanowires proximate to the substrate, and a second layer comprising porous alumina proximate to the first layer and distal from the substrate.

A home appliance includes a cabinet having a storage space formed therein; a door configured to open and close an open front of the cabinet; a panel assembly mounted on a front surface of the door; and a controller, wherein the panel assembly includes: a front plate forming a front exterior of the door and transmitting light; and a lighting device emitting light of a set color, wherein the front plate includes: a base layer; and a colored layer formed on one surface of the base layer and has a first color, wherein the front surface of the door has the first color when the lighting device is turned off, and wherein the front surface of the door shines in a color selected by a user when the lighting device is turned on.

A refrigerator includes a cabinet, in which a storage space is defined, and a door configured to open and close the storage space. The door includes a door body and a panel assembly mounted in front of the door body. The panel assembly includes a lighting device configured to irradiate light, a panel which is configured to define a front surface of the door and through which light is transmitted, a light guide plate provided behind the panel to guide the light irradiated from the lighting device to the panel, and an upper bracket provided above the panel to define a top surface of the panel assembly. The light guide plate extends more upward than an upper end of the panel, and an extending upper end of the light guide plate is accommodated in the upper bracket.
