History.

The original Jenn-Air Products Company was founded by Louis J.

Jenn in Indianapolis, Indiana in 1947, later becoming simply Jenn-Air.

In the early years, the company was focused on manufacturing and marketing of industrial fans for use in a variety of commercial and industrial applications.

In 1961, Jenn-Air's integration of one of these fans to a cook-top range lead to the invention of the first self-ventilated downdraft range.

The company expanded its product line to include many other kitchen appliances including microwave ovens, refrigerators, dishwashers, and small appliances such as mixers and blenders.

KitchenAid is an American home appliance brand owned by Whirlpool Corporation.

The company was started in 1919 by The Hobart Corporation to produce stand mixers; the "H-5" was the first model introduced.

The company faced stiff competition as rivals moved into this emerging market, and introduced its trademarked silhouette in the 1930s with the model "K", the work of designer Egmont Arens.

The brand's stand mixers have changed little in design since, and attachments from the model "K" onwards are compatible with the modern machines.

Dishwashers were the second product line to be introduced, in 1949.

A late 1980s promotional campaign on the back of an expansion by retailer Williams-Sonoma saw brand awareness double in three years.

Frigidaire is the American consumer and commercial home appliances brand subsidiary of European parent company Electrolux.

Frigidaire was founded as the Guardian Frigerator Company in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and developed the first self-contained refrigerator (invented by Nathaniel B.

Wales and Alfred Mellowes) in 1916.

In 1918, William C.

Durant, a founder of General Motors, personally invested in the company and in 1919, it adopted the name Frigidaire.

The brand was so well known in the refrigeration field in the early-to-mid-1900s that many Americans called any refrigerator (of whatever brand) a Frigidaire.

The name Frigidaire or its antecedent Frigerator may be the origin of the widely used English word fridge, although more likely simply an abbreviation of refrigerator which is a word known to have been used as early as 1611.
