Description
This KitchenAid gas cooktop has an integrated downdraft ventilation system, a convenient feature that'll spare you the purchase of a separate hood. It filters smoke and smells and redirects everything outside. It can also recirculate filtered air indoors when equipped with a duct-free kit, which can be purchased separately. The 3-speed fan is made to suit your cooking needs, while the 300 CFM evacuation rate complies with the ventilation requirements for searing and stir-frying. The appliance has powerful 15,000-BTU and 17,000-BTU burners that quickly bring water to a boil. There's also a 5000-BTU Even-Heat burner to properly simmer sauces, or melt butter and chocolate without scorching. The reliable cooktop has a pilotless electronic ignition system and an automatic reignition feature to ensure that the burner is relit if the flame goes out.
- Downdraft ventilation integrates the ventilation system into the cooking surface so that a separate hood is not needed - smoke and odors can be removed and taken outside or filtered and recirculated inside
- 17K BTU Professional burner provides the ability to use high-temperature cooking methods such as searing, stir-frying, and wok cooking as well as low temperatures suitable for simmering
- 5K BTU Even-Heat(TM) simmer burner - a diffuser plate allows more control of the flame at the lowest setting, for more precise simmering and melting
- 300 CFM exhaust rating handles the venting requirements of high temperature cooking techniques like pan searing and stir-frying
- 3-speed fan control can be precisely matched to cooking needs, effectively removing steam, grease, and odors from the air
- 15K BTU Professional burner reaches the high temperatures required to quickly get liquids to a boil and for high-temperature cooking techniques including getting a great sear on meat
- Convertible to duct-free ventilation - allows a downdraft cooktop to be placed nearly anywhere in the kitchen using a duct-free conversion kit (sold separately part# JDA7000WX)
- Melt cap - melt chocolate or butter, simmer delicate sauces, or poach eggs on a low-power burner, thanks to a wider burner cap that shields and diffuses the flame to produce a gentler, low-power heat
- Electronic ignition and automatic re-ignition lights burners with an electric spark instead of a pilot light - for more reliable performance, burners are re-lit if the flame is blown out

Not too many options in the market for this size
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A rust spot appeared on the cooktop surface. When the downdraft is on, it pulls the flame away from the burner, causing the ignition to continuously spark. To stop this, I have to turn off the fan.

FAN SPEED & DECIBLES
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The look of the cooktop is great. Space for pans is very good.
THE BAD: The fan is way, way too loud, even on low.
The LOW setting is so high that water did not boil on the 15,000 BTU burner even after 45 minutes as the heat and flame are sucked off. I have to turn the fan off in order to get a reasonable flame to the pan which is very dangerous. The fan dial does not shut off. Repairman is in the process of getting a new dial.
There is a major design flaw with the fan. At least put a rheostat style dial control that can be set to a lower speed.

5 burners are amazing
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the 5 burners! I’ve never cooked with gas so that is a learning curve. The sleek look compliments my island.
