JennAir Gas Cooktops & Gas Stove Tops

Spark Superb Performance: The JennAir Gas Cooktop

Establish your presence in the kitchen with the unmatched cooking power and mastery found in a JennAir gas cooktop. Unlike a budget model, the JennAir gas cooktop balances the home chef's need for high heat with a precision only found in restaurants. Their power burners wield nearly 20,000 BTUs of heat, while others bring a gentle warmth to delicate sauces and soups. With such a broad expanse of functionality, these kitchen appliances fuse unbeatable cooking aptitude with style for a kitchen that's simply peerless.

These cooking ranges are showstoppers thanks to their shining surfaces covered in bright stainless steel and dark moody blacks. Whichever color device you choose, know that it's covered with a DuraFinish® protective coating designed to keep scratches, stains, and discoloration at bay. But their most remarkable technology is hard to see until you know what you're looking for. Instead of an overhead hood, many JennAir gas cooktops are equipped with downdrafts set between the burners—an innovation developed by Lou Jenn, the company's creator, back in 1965.

An Innovative Downdraft

While the classic range hood sits above your stove, JennAir flips the script by inserting a hard-to-recognize vent between the burners. As you cook, steam, vapor, and even smoke are pulled within—keeping your home free from any unwanted smells and removing impurities from the air. And with a JennAir gas cooktop, there's no need to interrupt the flow of your home's open expansive layout with large machinery hanging from the ceiling. That's more space for your individual home's style to shine.

If you've already got a vent hood installed or prefer to install one yourself, don't worry—these engineers of all things precise have developed their own version of the classic stovetop appliance as well. Everything is the same, from the protective coating to the stylish burners. The only thing missing will be the downdraft. Whichever version you pick out, make sure to pair yours with a matching wall oven for symmetrical style and outstanding culinary acumen.

The Finishing Touches

Whether you use yours every night for a homemade dinner or prefer prepping your meals ahead of time, the JennAir gas cooktop will quickly become the center of your home. That's why it's the little details that matter, like the sealed brass burners that grace every one of these devices. The brass is made from germ-repelling copper and shines brighter than stainless steel. And thanks to self-sealed construction, they're easy to both remove and clean. Meanwhile, heavy-duty grates lay flat across the entire JennAir gas cooktop, allowing you to slide cookware from one burner to another with ease.
