I don’t think so, but from a consumer point of view, white appliances and wood panel appliances were the industry standards for kitchen and laundry vs home electronics like TVs and radios, in the US a white appliance is usually more expensive but more reliable than a wood paneled appliance, but people also see chrome and black appliances of all kinds as more modern and top of the line, these are very intentionally establishment aspects of product colors in US retail, so if the robot is white people tend to think ‘pricey but well made’ and a black robot as ‘modern, up to date with lots of features’ at least that’s my experience from being in retail sales for years.
Did you mean to respond to somebody else? You said “I don’t think so” to my comment about ABS Plastics being naturally white in color, then talk on end about consumer psychology as if that were relevant.

No. It’s relevant. That’s why I said it. You don’t get that? It’s that why you’re mad?
