Cove Brand Story

Cove is the dishwashing specialist, engineered to ensure spotlessly clean and dry dishes every time. It is the only dishwasher designed to complete the Sub-Zero and Wolf kitchen, and the only one with the same commitment to quality and innovation. Built with premium-grade materials, Cove dishwashers are designed to last for decades of daily use.

Sub-Zero Group Inc. is a 3rd generation family-owned company proudly based in the United States. The company launched in 1945 as Sub-Zero Freezer Company, thanks in part to founder Westye Bakke’s personal experimentation with refrigeration as a reliable way to store his young son’s insulin. The company’s launch came two years after Bakke successfully built his first freestanding freezer out of scrap metal in his basement, and introduced the first system for preserving food at ultra-low temperatures—literally sub-zero. Inspired by Bakke’s desire to build the best, the company quickly established a reputation for quality and innovation and has never compromised on quality, using only premium-grade materials, state-of-the-art technology, and top craftsmanship.
In 2000, Sub-Zero introduced Wolf cooking appliances, bringing the professional temperature control typically limited to commercial kitchens into the hands of home cooks. The technology, durability, and design of the residential line made it the ideal kitchen companion to Sub-Zero. In 2018, the company launched Cove dishwashing to complete the kitchen package. Cove is the culmination of decades of research and testing and is the only dishwasher built to the elegant, exacting standards of Sub-Zero and Wolf.

Jim Bakke, the grandson of founder Westye Bakke, is the current president of Sub-Zero and the appliances are still made in the United States in Wisconsin and Arizona, where they control every step of the manufacturing process.
