Five burner a must!
I purchased and installed this cooktop approximately two months ago. Going from a 30” cooktop to a 36” cooktop with an additional burner was a plus!!! The color goes well with the countertop also.

Great cooktop!
I bought this cooktop a few weeks ago. The delivery was great. On time as promised and the delivery men were very nice and helpful. The cooktop fit perfectly in the opening and was fairly simple too connect. Everything is functioning perfectly.

Impressive cooktop
Very hard to find a 36” downdraft cooktop. This KitchenAid model is sleek, functional and addresses every cooking need. I especially like the oversize double burner. You do need quite a bit of undercounter space for the downdraft motor unit.

I love this cooktop!
I replaced my old, traditional, coil cooktop with this new 36" electric downdraft. There aren't many electric cooktops with a downdraft, which was concerning, but I love this model! I appreciate the different sized burners with specific heat settings. The down draft is very efficient and quiet. Clean up is is so easy!

Bigger cooktop
I bought this cooktop last fall. I am so glad I upgraded to this larger size cooktop. I am able to fit more large size pots on it at the same time. It is much more convenient for cooking for my family. It heats evenly. I’m very happy with my purchase.

Good Cooktop
We recently had to replace the Amana cooktop we had for over 25 years (when we built our house). We like how this cooktop heats so quickly. We also like the sleek appearance.

Smooth Top Downdraft
Needed to replace our 36” downdraft and found the Kitchenaid 36” downdraft would match perfectly with our Kitchenaid appliances. This unit requires a 40 amp service with larger wires than our 30 amp older unit. I upgraded the wires and can take full advantage of the 5 burners when needed. Very satisfied with the purchase.

I am in love!
This was installed a month ago. I bought my house 10 years ago, and had an old jennaire unit. I agonized about this decision for a few years before finally deciding on this unit. I could not be happier with my choice! The burners are fast, and the temperature control on this is incredible. The fan power on the downdraft is powerful, clearing any smoke quickly that the family chef may make (me, and I’m a great smoke maker lol). I am so happy that I purchased this unit. It cleans up quickly with the right materials, and it looks fantastic in my kitchen. I. Am. In. Love!

Love the look of the unbroken cooktop surface, easy to care for. The 5 cook stations allow various dishes to be cooked simultaneously.

Nice new features
Bought this downdraft first off because i don not care for the pop up exhaust. Finding a large unit was a challenge. My other kitchen appliances are all KitchenAid so I fell very confident with the make. So far really liking the over size 5th burner. I am cautious of any drips and spills because even water on the cook top is an issue of a staining effect. All in all you can't go wrong. I hope it last as long as it's processor which was 24 years! Sure wish it came with a sample cleaning kit with the safe scrapper. I'm searching to find on Amazon today!

Excellent Cooktop 9with downdraft fan
I bought this appliance one month ago, it was simple to assembly and easy to install, the best came later with its performance, food is quickly fixed with no issues due the vapors coming out , if something spills out of the pot it could be easily removed using conventional soap and soft sponge.
Very Happy with this purchase...

Love my new electric cooktop
This electric cooktop was the only one I could find with a downdraft. I really love it. It not only cooks great, but makes my kitchen look fantastic. It is so clean looking! Be sure to get the cleaner they recommend, though, as you cannot clean it with just water!

Oh My Gosh! How Sweet!
I usually don't do reviews, but after searching for appliances with such mixed reviews I decided to review my latest appliance purchases. This says it's an electric downdraft cooktop--I purchased the professional 36 inch gas cooktop. I want to list both pros and cons. Pros are many: huge workspace, magnificent burners, heats quickly or slowly depending on setting, setting controls allow for a continual adjustment of temperature instead of 3 settings, quiet, controls are out of the way of the burners, easy to clean and looks very professional. Cons: Does not have a light behind the control knobs when turned on, the small burner is in the back middle. Control knobs turn on easily even when bumped, without the backlight it wouldn't even know it was bumped on. I would have preferred two smaller burners and at the very least one that was in the front. Overall, I love the cooktop!! I'm hoping KitchenAid will read my review and make the small adjustments to the control knobs. They would be simple adjustments and make this appliance hard to beat.

Love the new features!
My wife and I just updated our kitchen and replaced the old smaller electric cooktop with this Kitchenaid model. The old unit was still working but showing it's age and the new cooktop gave us an extra burner plus it has many updated features. The temperture settings are MUCH improved over our old cooktop. It was very difficult to get the correct setting for simmer but the Kitchenaid has many additional settings that helps you get the right temperature for your needs.
I also like the downdraft fan better in the Kitchenaid. Much quieter and seems to do a better job than the cooktop we replaced.

I am so happy that I picked this stove top. My older one was down to one side working and sometimes only one burner. This one is great. Cleans well. Makes the island it sits in look great.

Wonderful cooktop
My new Kitchenaid electric cook top is a great upgrade from my previous model. The elements are fast to heat and responsive to minor adjustments in temperature throughout the cooking process. Installation was very easy and it cleans up quickly. Also the exhaust fan is so quiet. I’ll continue to upgrade my kitchen appliances with Kitchenaid products!
