There are not many options in the down-draft market. Especially in older homes with a 30" cooktop. And they cost SO MUCH more then non-fan cooktops. This replaced a Jenn-Air from the mid-90's with almost no alterations. The vent lined up nearly perfectly. However the blower on the GE is larger requiring the vent that came up from the floor to be cut down 6 inches or so. This reduced space inside the island where it was mounted - e.g. less storage space. I couldn't use the original direct-wiring and had to mount a J-box. Finding surface covers is hard because the controls are surface mounted knobs. Had to buy a big one and cut it up to get a cover for each side. Glass is a royal pain to keep clean - at least on this unit. Regular soap and water just don't cut it. We have to use a glass top cleaner. Without the covers, I'd be forever cleaning this. There is no such thing as a simple wipe-up. The supplied mounting hardware is hokey and would never work in my installation - it's an L-bracket that mounts flush with the bottom of the unit. Your mounting surface has to be the perfect thickness and have more clearance than mine did. Order the alternative mounting hardware and it's a breeze. As for function, it works really well and the fan seems stronger than the 400 CFM rating would suggest. The ganged burners and 'super boiler' are nice when you need them (think large pancake griddle & pasta boiling respectively). Skillets slide easily but not on their own. I often 'toss' food in the pan or 'flip-stir' and am very nervous the pan will either scratch the glass if not picked up, or if I lift it off the glass, will hit the glass and crack it. Flipping (if you have the knack) is often easier than stirring but I may change my ways out of sheer fear.

Very nice. In the reviews I noticed there are a few about scratches on the face. If you simply follow the care direction on how to clean and what to and not to use when cooking, its works perfect. I love it so far! Just “ take care to take care” and it will stay beautiful!

We had it for about a month now. I love the powerful exhaust vent. The house doesn't smell of oil anymore. The center knob controls are hard to clean though.

This new cooktop is fast at heating up and the downdraft pulls quite a bit smoke. I also like the bridge function is a nice feature.

Works really well. Downdraft was our only option and we have reduced cooking odors dramatically. Very happy we opted for this version. I like the knobs instead of touch. Install is what it will be depending on doing it yourself and location of the vent underneath. Ours was tough but well worth it doing it on our own.

We love it . It's not the first glass top we've had. This was previously slotted with a GE Profile gas down draft cooktop. The electric GE Profile down draft stove heats faster and cooks great. Temperature range is easily managed and cleanup is vastly easier. Highly recommended for everyone.

I love my new cooktop! The installation is a little tricky since we have never installed one with the downdraft vent. This was great option instead of installing an overhead vent over the island

This cooktop replaced an old one, GE too. This new one works awesome, it is very easy to clean, and the most important thing, the cooking time is shorter. Everything is done in just minutes. Also I would recommend, you get pans designed for glass cooktop, it will help a lot.

We are learning to use and enjoying our new glass stove top. It's a new up-to-date style for us, so we do have somewhat of a learning curve. We look forward to many years of cooking with it.
