Description
  • 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. A duct-free kit is available for purchase separately.
  • 10” Even-Heat™ Ultra Element with Simmer Setting
    Provides more versatility for high and low temperature cooking techniques. Even-Heat™ Technology maintains a constant supply of power and delivers a range of simmer settings.
  • 6” Even-Heat™ Element with Melt Setting
    Combines the benefits of Even-Heat™ Technology with a dedicated setting that reaches the low temperatures needed to melt chocolate or butter without scorching.
  • 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.
  • CookShield Finish for Glass Surface
    Protects the cooktop surface from scratches, helping keep it looking pristine even with frequent use.
  • 12”/9” Double-Ring Element
    Lets you use different cookware sizes at one location. When using large, 12-inch cookware the entire element surface is used. For smaller cookware, you’ll use only the 9-inch inner element.
  • Convertible to Duct-Free Ventilation
    Allows a downdraft cooktop to be placed nearly anywhere in the kitchen using a duct-free conversion kit (not included). This filters and recirculates the air without running ductwork, ideal for kitchens with installation restrictions or ducting limitations.

  1. Bestbuyer17

    I’m really happy with how quick this heats up and how safe it is. Looks fantastic

  2. Summer

    Item ordered was in stock sooner than expected. From the initial order right through installation all went smoothly. Very happy with product, as well as Best Buy sales and services.

  3. Surge

    Love the extra large burner set away from the others! Clean look

  4. BigT

    I love this cooktop. It cooks fast and cools off fast.

  5. TimM

    KitchenAid – 36″ Electric Cooktop looks awesome in my kitchen. I bought it along with KitchenAid Microwave combo.

  6. ByLs

    Bought thus unit to replace old stove top in house we bought. First the unit looks great. Second it heats quickly. Third the additional 5th large burn is a great feature.

  7. BigH

    The five burners proved ample cooking space and the overall appearance of the cook top is excellent.

  8. NikoMom

    Read a review that cooktop scratches. Because of that comment, I have been extra careful and vigilant. Well after 3 months of using, I have two significant scratches. As a reference, my last cooktop had no scratches after 10 years! And I didn’t baby it, like I am doing with this one. Move along and purchase another brand. I was going to buy a KA refrigerator, but now going with GE.

  9. Pyrmom

    Love the additional burners (extra large) and the ease of cleaning.

  10. Lynn

    I returned this product due to lack of stock. Never picked this up . Returned.

  11. Unknown

    Wonderful 36 in cooktop with a downdraft. Only complaint, like all cooktops similar to this, is that rings are left on the top but clean easily with cooktop cleaner. Quick and even heating.

  12. DucV

    Purchased to replace the same unit that died because of lightning damage. Build is much better than it was 7yrs ago. The finish has changed from smooth glass to textured but it is a welcome change. The burners all got larger and dedicated warmer is now an actual burner.

  13. Rock

    This cook top is the best! My wife went from having 2 burners and a grill to having 5 burners.Multiple pots on the cook top at once now! Love it!

  14. Justdad

    This was the only stovetop we could find with an exhaust fan and it’s a huge improvement over our old one. Very pleased with the cooktop.

  15. Buddy

    There was little choice when it came to 36″ downdraft cooktops, Kitchenaid made the only one, but Best Buy price was one of the lowest. I love how fast water boils. installation was easy. It is harder to keep clean than my previous one. I’m looking forward to using all 5 burners when this pandemic is over and I can host the 42 family member Christmas party again.

  16. Stacy

    I absolutely love this cooktop. I researched FOREVER before making my purchase, and I could not be happier. The controls are easy to use, it’s not as hard to keep clean as I had read- you just have to be conscious to do it after use, and the burners and heating is top notch! The downdraft works wonders and keeps all the smoke and stink out of the kitchen. I’ve already used all the “special” functions (ultra low, ultra high) and they work great. I chose for Best Buy to install, and it made it so simple. So glad that I went with this!

  17. HPLaptop

    Loving updated appliances. Kitchenaid is nice. Easy to clean. Sleek.

  18. myshopify

    Terrible, just after a week it looked as bad as my 15 years old stove. now after 2 years still ugly. If I tell someone its only 2 years old they wont believe me. I tried all possible tricks I can see on youtube to keep it clean but it got scratches.

  19. SBKBS

    The cooktop was the closest to what I wanted. It was installed just before the holidays. It was a welcome addition to our kitchen.

  20. Muhammad

    It’s an Excellent product /Appliance for my Kitchen.

  21. Hawkhealer

    Had to up grade wiring as old stove top was 30 amps. Easy to install, works great and looks elegant

  22. Nope

    We like very much. Really love that it has 5 Burners.
    Hard to keep clean. It must be cleaned after every use. Otherwise it’s perfect.

  23. Unknown

    Looks good and works well. Its one of the few down draft cooktops available

  24. user178943

    I waited quite awhile for this cooktop to become available which is not a good start. Its much more expensive too with the downdraft fan, I mean a lot more. Placed the order and it took over 6 weeks to arrive. The cooktop cooks really well and the fan is quite effective for a downdraft fan, much better than the previous model we had which was the same brand and size. One thing is the same though and that is the marks on the cooktop from cooking that you cant seem to get off. I think most glass cooktops get those marks, its like a scuff mark of some sort but the glass is smooth, just a mark from the pot around the outer edges of the element. Aside from that we are happy with its performance !

  25. Paulazac

    Love the stove. Works great and has a big 5th burner!

  26. AshimM

    loved it. it is perfect for my Kitchen. i am enjoying my cooking.

  27. Stuey82

    Needed a downdraft stovetop to replace the JennAir stovetop we inherited in our house purchase from 1983. Works great. I havent had the smoke alarm go off since I had this model installed. I really like the even heat burners for lower temp cooking. The large burner on the right is awesome for larger pots and my oversize cast iron skillet. Ceramic top is difficult to clean and the black is difficult to see where the burners are when its not totally cleaned off, otherwise it works flawlessly.
