BENTON HARBOR, Mich., March 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- In the first move of its kind for the brand, luxury appliance maker Jenn-Air will open a Manhattan showroom in April 2013 as part of a broader effort to heighten its profile among influential design professionals. The space, occupying the entire fifth floor of the Decoration & Design (D&D) Annex at 222 East 59th Street, also will serve as a showcase for Christopher Peacock Home, a leading designer of high-end kitchen cabinetry and home furnishings.

The showroom will not handle sales of the appliances, but will facilitate purchases through Jenn-Air retail partners and offer related design services, according to Steve Brown, General Manager of Jenn-Air. Highly trained staff will be on hand to provide information and guidance in selecting from the complete Jenn-Air product line, which was recently redesigned and re-launched as a luxury appliance collection.
"Jenn-Air and Christopher Peacock Home share a commitment to design and craftsmanship, and to making luxury products right here in America," notes Brown. "This showroom will serve as a key resource for design professionals and their clients, and provide an ideal showcase for our two highly compatible brands."
According to Brown, the alliance reflects the Jenn-Air brand's broader strategy of "offering information and inspiration in highly experiential, highly contextual ways and settings." Related initiatives include a new iPhone application that lets users envision Jenn-Air appliances in their kitchens, participation in high-profile designer show homes, and exclusive sponsorship of major culinary events.
"Showing the Jenn-Air appliance collection together with high-end cabinetry and furnishings is another way to not only inform and inspire, but to communicate our transformation into a true luxury brand," adds Brown.
