JennAir

JennAir is in Whirlpool Corporation's brand portfolio, alongside KitchenAid and Maytag, and builds professional-style ranges, cooktops with downdraft ventilation, wall ovens, built-in refrigeration, wine columns, and dishwashers. The brand offers full suites in two design expressions, RISE and NOIR.

What JennAir makes

In the Sacramento region, JennAir is sold through the DreamHome Appliance Group showroom in Roseville.

JennAir covers cooking, refrigeration, and cleanup across two design expressions. Its ranges come in dual fuel, gas, and induction, in the RISE and NOIR looks, with connected controls. The cooktops come in gas, electric radiant, and induction, and JennAir's induction downdraft cooktop vents outside or recirculates. Built-in column refrigerators and freezers install behind panels or in stainless, with an Obsidian interior on the built-in refrigerator and wine columns, and wall ovens come in single, double, and combination models, with guided cooking and app control on select models. The line also includes ventilation hoods, dishwashers, and wine cellars, so a kitchen can be matched top to bottom in one aesthetic.

JennAir kitchens

Downdraft ventilation

JennAir describes a downdraft cooktop as capturing smoke, steam, and odors at the cooking surface. Whether an island or peninsula cooktop can go without an overhead hood depends on the model's installation instructions and local code, so check both before the cabinet plan is set. Wall ovens connect to JennAir's app for remote control and monitoring.

Both design styles read differently once they are surrounded by cabinetry, and there is JennAir installed at Design Gallery, the kitchen and bath showroom that shares the Roseville building with us.

JennAir ranges, cooktops, and refrigeration

  • Ranges. Professional-style ranges in 30, 36, and 48-inch widths, including an induction professional-style range, plus 30-inch slide-in ranges in electric radiant, induction, gas, or dual fuel. RISE slide-ins come with a downdraft or an updraft option. Features the maker names include dual-stacked PowerBurners, a chrome-infused griddle, an indoor gas grill, steam assist, and dual-fan true convection; they vary by model.
  • Cooktops. Gas, electric radiant, and induction cooktops, offered in two styles, Lustre in steel and Oblivion in black glass, plus an induction downdraft cooktop with built-in ventilation. Some cooktops hold a set temperature between 120°F and 400°F.
  • Wall ovens. Single, double, and combination wall ovens; features vary by model and include V2 dual-fan true convection and the guided Culinary Center, run from the oven display or the JennAir app.
  • Refrigeration. Built-in refrigerators in bottom-mount, side-by-side, and French door layouts; refrigerator columns in 24, 30, and 36-inch widths, freezer columns from 18 to 30 inches, and 18 or 24-inch wine columns; and freestanding, undercounter, and wine models. Built-in and column interiors are finished in a dark Obsidian black.
  • Dishwashers. JennAir dishwashers come in RISE or NOIR, with a pocket handle, or panel-ready for a custom front. Some models are rated as low as 38 dBA on the Normal cycle.

RISE and NOIR, the two design expressions

JennAir offers full suites in two design expressions, and both run across the catalog, so a range, wall oven, refrigerator, and dishwasher can all match. RISE is the commercial, traditional look. JennAir describes it as forged in mixed metals, with a custom knurled handle, brass-inspired knob collars, a bold badge, and geometric grates. NOIR is the modern, minimalist look, sculpted in stainless steel with structured grates, expansive black glass, an understated badge, and lace textures under the handle that you find by touch. The maker presents them as two styles rather than two levels, so settle the look for the room, then pick the features model by model. A kitchen built around its cabinetry can skip both: JennAir refrigeration and dishwashers also take panels.

Panel-ready JennAir refrigeration

JennAir column refrigeration runs from 18 to 36 inches across refrigerator, freezer, and wine columns that can be planned into one run, and its built-in refrigerators install flush with the cabinets. Both take a custom wood panel to match your cabinetry or JennAir's stainless panels, with RISE or NOIR handles or a handle from a third-party maker. Columns also take JennAir's designer panel collections: Dekton stone, Italian leather in the Cuts collection, and egg- or seashell-inlaid panels in the Elements collection made with Nature Squared. Check panel weight and hinge space in each model's installation guide, and settle the column layout before the cabinet drawings. Our guide to built-in refrigerator installation covers the rough-in, our panel-ready refrigerator guide compares makers, and panel-ready appliances covers the whole kitchen.

Who JennAir suits

JennAir suits a kitchen where the look leads: one design language from range to dishwasher, or an island cooktop with downdraft ventilation instead of an overhead hood, where the model's installation instructions and local code allow it. Cooks who want induction can find it in pro-style ranges, slide-ins, and cooktops. For the fuel choice, read induction versus gas and dual fuel versus gas; for the venting choice, read downdraft versus a range hood.

Does JennAir make a downdraft cooktop?

Yes. JennAir lists an induction downdraft cooktop with built-in ventilation, and RISE slide-in ranges offer a downdraft or updraft option. Whether an island can go without an overhead hood depends on the model's installation instructions and local code.
