JennAir AppliancesBehind the Brand: JennAir Appliances
Consider your kitchen a runway, and the JennAir suite of appliances is the latest catalog of hot designs and premium features that any pro host, trendsetter, or avid home chef must see. It’s a project more than eight decades in the making, beginning in 1947 and continuing to evolve to this day with a list of innovations that truly shaped the way gourmet kitchens look and work today. To date, JennAir has a number of highlights in its portfolio, from the first downdraft cooktop for homes to introducing domestic settings with the power and performance of convection baking.
Now part of the Whirlpool family, JennAir serves as the manufacturer’s elite sub-brand for high-end buyers who want modern designs with cool, laid-back sophistication, as well as exclusive features to round out the luxury experience. JennAir appliances are available in two stylish collections, each crafted for a specific taste and look.
The JennAir RISE Collection
This line invites you to think of fine fancy restaurants and fine dining. The JennAir RISE series features signature motifs like rounded handles with diamond-etched engravings, brushed accents in brass, and abundant use of stainless steel for a timeless look that still feels current.
The JennAir NOIR Collection
The JennAir NOIR is all about careful refinement. Instead of highlighting stainless steel, appliances in this line feature expansive black glass fronts, slim profiles, and bar handles with lace textures. These careful details add a subtle level of sophistication that looks great in minimal and modern kitchens.
JennAir Refrigeration
By far, JennAir refrigerators are the brand’s biggest sellers. Features like an exclusive Obsidian interior say it all — JennAir food preservation was made for those who love curated designs. There are four ways to enjoy JennAir refrigeration:
- As a freestanding model (available exclusively as a French door refrigerator)
- As a built in refrigerator in three design styles
- As column refrigeration, which also offers buyers upgrades like custom leather and wood finishes
- As undercounter refrigeration and freezer drawers ideal for bars or as extra food storage in the kitchen
How much do JennAir refrigerators cost?
Full-size JennAir refrigerators start off at $3,900 and go up to $12,200. Keep in mind: Prices for built-in and column units do not include installation costs.
Best JennAir Refrigerator Features
It’s undeniable JennAir cares a lot about its looks. But pop the hood, and you’ll see that these appliances are also carefully engineered to extend the luxury experience on the inside, too. Whether you prefer the NOIR or RISE collection, each JennAir refrigerator comes with metal interiors, adjustable storage, and brilliant illumination. Depending on the model, you can also find these great features across the catalog:
✱ TwinFresh Climate Control
Dual evaporators — one for the freezer and another for the fridge — optimize temperature and humidity settings in both compartments to reduce odor and flavor transfer and to preserve foods better.
✱ Theater Lighting
Your latest culinary masterpiece and ingredients deserve a proper showcase. Theater lighting provides a more enjoyable display that will have your food looking even more appetizing.
✱ Obsidian Interior
This signature refrigerator interior creates a striking contrast that not only looks visually appealing, but it helps foods stand out better, so you can track and organize your items more efficiently.
✱ Precision Temperature Management System
A series of sensors and variable-speed compressors efficiently manage temperature settings inside the freezer and fridge compartments for better efficiency and more consistent food climates.
✔Our Favorite JennAir Refrigerator: JennAir RISE™ 36” Stainless Steel Fully Integrated Built-In French Door Refrigerator
You can’t go wrong with a French door refrigerator, especially with this JennAir built-in model that can be customized with a panel overlay of your choosing. At 36 inches wide, this is an ideal refrigerator size for a full-size household or avid entertainers who demand space for party boards, chilled drinks, and appetizers.
JennAir Ranges & Rangetops
JennAir includes two additional design lines in its cooking appliance family aside from the JennAir NOIR and JennAir RISE: the Pro-Style collection and the Euro-Style collection. These are part of a series of luxury ranges that come in 30”, 36”, and 48” sizes and either gas or dual fuel options.
However, JennAir Euro-Style ranges are 30”, are made for compact luxury kitchens, are slide-in ranges, and feature JennAir’s only radiant electric and induction ranges in the brand’s catalog. The JennAir Pro-Style range is more commercial-grade, offering six gas burners along with a powerful oven with six convection modes in an industrial design.
JennAir rangetops fall within a close price range between $3,330 and $4,780. JennAir ranges are more spread out, with prices between $2,890 and $12,890.
Best JennAir Range & Rangetop Features
JennAir cooktops, wall ovens, rangetops, and ranges, share many of the same great features. Here are the spotlights.

✱ Electronic Flame-Sensing Reignition
Automatic sensors instantly reignite a burner if it happens to go out, so you never miss a beat while cooking.

✱ Chrome-Infused Griddle
JennAir ranges and rangetops with a chrome-infused griddle offer top-of-the-line heat conduction and easy cleanup.

JennAir Dishwashers
Regarded as the quietest luxury dishwasher brand at a minimum of 38 decibels, JennAir dishwashers are high-performance dish care machines designed with style to match their cleaning ability. All JennAir dishwashers come in standard 24” widths with the option of two different handle builds reflective of the NOIR or RISE collection.
Prices for JennAir dishwashers range between $1,400 and $2,200, making the brand one of the more affordable options in the luxury category.
Best JennAir Dishwasher Features
Aside from their modern look, JennAir dishwashers are also made with power in mind. The list of functions these dishwashing machines offer ensures quality results with each cycle.
✱ TriFecta Wash System
JennAir dishwashers use three unique features, including pressurized dishwasher arms, a three-stage water filtration, and wash action in two separate zones for full water coverage.
✱ Rapid Wash Cycle
Speed-wash a complete load of cookware in under an hour with the Rapid Wash cycle. The system uses powerful jets and a special wash action to blast away debris that is left on dishes.
✱ Cinematic Lighting
It’s not the biggest feature, but having interior dishwasher lighting is a nice perk when it comes to grabbing a dish in the dark.
✱ High-Capacity 3rd Rack
JennAir holds the title for the most third rack capacity in its class, which equates to more room for bowls, glasses, and utensils in a single wash.
✱ ClearScan Sensor Cycle
Intelligent sensors on this optional wash cycle can be used to scan soil levels in the water to determine the best wash cycle.
✱ Precision Dry Plus
Built-in heating and a fan evaporate moisture on dishes for fewer water spots.
✔Our Favorite JennAir Dishwasher: JennAir® 24” Stainless Steel Built In Dishwasher
Don’t let this quiet dishwasher fool you — its amazing results speak loud and clear thanks to ClearScan technology that detects accurate soil levels for tailored washes that are streak-and-spot-free. Each cycle goes through a three-level wash system to purge impurities, and you have the option of a Precision Dry Plus mode for truly dry dishes, even plastic containers. We also appreciate how spacious this model is, with fold-away tines and a third rack that make loading easy.

JennAir Cooktops
With claims such as the “industry’s most powerful induction” and “the most powerful radiant cooktop in its class,” JennAir cooktops perfectly demonstrate how far the brand goes for excellence. Unfortunately, JennAir doesn’t make professional cooktops 48” and larger, instead sticking to 24”, 30”, and 36” cooktops, but there is still plenty of variety.
Select from powerful gas cooktops, high-end radiant cooktops, and cutting-edge induction cooktops with your choice of four to six heating zones. Additionally, JennAir modular cooktops can be incorporated into a setup for an extra place to create sides.
Best JennAir Cooktop Features
Here’s what makes JennAir cooktops some of the best on the market today.
✱ Dual/Triple-Choice Element

✔Our Favorite JennAir Cooktop: JennAir® 36" Stainless Steel Induction Cooktop
This sleek little number uses the latest cooking technology for a performance that is comparable to gas in precision, heat output, and speed.

It's appetizing, flush fit is an extra touch of luxury that gives this induction cooktop a modern edge, unlike any other cooktop on the market.

JennAir Wall Ovens
When it comes to style, JennAir wall ovens showcase the biggest design differences between the NOIR and RISE collections. NOIR models emphasize black glass windows and sleek handles that blend in with stainless steel trims, while RISE wall ovens are dressed in stainless steel and feature a more prominent control panel.
With that said, both lines come in 24” speed ovens, plus 27” and 30” wall oven models with single, double, and combination wall oven models. Full-size single and double wall ovens provide five cubic feet of oven space a piece to cook multiple entrées and sides at a time.
Depending on whether you buy a single, double, or microwave oven combo, a JennAir wall oven will cost you between $2,800 and $6,150.
Best JennAir Oven Features
At their simplest, JennAir wall ovens offer convection baking, easy-glide racks, and powerful watt output since all models are electric, not gas. Here’s what else you can expect from the lineup.
✱ Connected Temperature Probe
A built-in oven temperature probe that can sync with a smart device via Wi-Fi sends in-the-moment notifications on food doneness.
✱ Wi-Fi Compatibility
Sync a JennAir smart wall oven to your Wi-Fi network or smart device for on-the-go programming wherever you are.
✱ MultiMode Convection
An independent heating element and fan provide better air circulation than standard convection alone.
✱ V2 Vertical Convection
This is JennAir’s most advanced convection system, featuring three different heating elements and dual-fan convection for better heat dispersion and professional results.
✔Our Favorite JennAir Wall Oven: JennAir® RISE™ 30” Stainless Steel Built-In Oven/Microwave Combination Electric Wall Oven
Allow your beautiful countertops to shine by going for this microwave wall oven combination. Imagine the possibilities as you use the upper microwave to speed cook sides with even convection while the lower oven prepares the main entrée with the advanced MultiMode Convection System. JennAir’s signature Obsidian interior is the perfect dash of detail that makes this wall oven as stylish as it is powerful.
It’s clear to see JennAir appliances are made for homeowners who stay on trend and up to date with the latest interior designs. If you enjoy the looks of GE Café, Miele, or Gaggenau, you’ll love the presentation of JennAir appliances. As for reliability, we appreciate that JennAir products come from the Whirlpool family, which recent surveys state is one of the preferred brands based on customer satisfaction. Without a doubt, a JennAir kitchen is a sign of luxury, performance, and prestige that any user will be impressed with.
