Jenn-Air lets customers create their own design

If you haven’t shopped for refrigerators lately, you might peek at the Jenn-Air line. It is not enough with stainless steel or cabinetry fronts; built-in; commercial or residential in size; and mix and match possibilities with every feature. Jenn-Air now says if a consumer can dream it, it can be done.

Nicole Miller, for example, shows how fashion goes further than the closet with a lightweight resin front reminiscent of a stained-glass window.

Like Miller, consumers can now create their own original design fronts.
