Warmer temperatures ignite the desire for creative summer entertaining with family and friends. Taking center stage this season are the latest home appliance trends that bring resort-style luxury and elevated convenience to outdoor spaces, the kitchen, and the bar. From “CAVIAR and CROC” leather finishes or fragments of seashells on a new JennAir refrigerator, to the ultimate wet bar experience created by appliance brands such as XO, LG, and forged ice cubes by Monogram, the experts at AJ Madison, the industry’s foremost appliance authority representing over 150 brands, have identified the hottest appliances for summer 2025.
When considering updates for one’s home as a style statement, summer is the time to refresh interiors with bold color and refined textures. Centerpiece appliances can redefine luxury and innovation. JennAir continues to push boundaries with Cuts by JennAir, a collection of small-batch, handcrafted panels designed to elevate integrated refrigerators and freezers. Each piece is meticulously designed, based on prevailing color trends, and then crafted using fine Italian leather to add further depth and intrigue to one’s JennAir® Column Refrigeration. After a color is chosen, the team works to carefully select the leather from high-end Italian tanneries. All leather Cuts panels are crafted from aniline leather, a natural and supple material grade from the finest hides. The hides are then dyed through for richness and longevity of color, then finished twice for cleanability. The latest addition by JennAir, The Elements Collection, is a stunning collaboration with Nature Squared. Each of the ten handmade panel designs is inlaid with fragments of egg or seashell – a seamless fusion of sustainability and opulence. For more information, visit Cuts by JennAir & Nature Squared.
