About JennAir

JennAir is Whirlpool's luxury appliance brand, known for introducing the downdraft cooktop in 1961, which vented at the hob rather than requiring an overhead extractor. It competes with Sub-Zero and Wolf at the top of the American kitchen market. Downdraft venting allows a hob to be placed on an island without a hood above it.
