Downdraft
on July 7, 2023
Posted by: Juandc
Tech ordered and it doesn’t fit.
Called GE and after 4 hours on the phone…. NOTHING
Someone was supposed to contact me to coordinate pick up and credit. Finally recd an email saying I have to call again. Absolutely rediculous .
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is the second telescopic downdraft that will not go down once the button is pressed.

Kitchen Revival

No surprise to me when my new downdraft stovetop vent performed as expected if not better than expected. The new device replaced a 20 yr. plus old down draft vent which was paired with a black GE stovetop. Changed stovetop to brushed stainless GE Cafe Stove top and decided to replace vent at the same time and we are astounded with performance and cooking center's beauty.

Adequate

I'm not really unhappy with it, I just don't use it very much. Because the fan height is pretty low, it doesn't always draw off all the steams/cooking output very well. I do like the controls and the fact that there's no mfr id on the part that's showing on the countertop - fits in nicely with my Cafe cooktop. I could have purchased much more expensive models from other manufacturers that gave me better height/draw, but for the money this was a good fit. I was replacing another similar unit that was 20+ years old from Thermador (combo cooktop/vent fan) so it was pretty much apples to apples.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Hello - Thank you so much for taking a moment to connect and share your review. We're glad to see that this downdraft system has been a good fit for you.

However, we are sorry about it not removing much of the steam and smoke. That is definitely something we are going to forward over to our product team to review. This way we can potentially look for improvements we can make for our models going forward.

Let us know if you have any questions, we're always happy to help. - Jonathon@GEAppliances

Nice and glad it end up fitting
on December 28, 2023

I was replacing my older GE downdraft system with new one. Worried that it wouldn't fit, but the installation person after a couple of sawing and heavy maneuvering go to fit. Not for a novice handy man to install. Even if GE provides a guarantee on fitting if you are replacing your GE appliances with GE appliances, not always a clear match.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Works well

Works well. A little loud. The top position of the on/off is a little inconvenient. My prior downdraft was controlled by the cooktop area.

It creates a good suction and effectively sucks in steam.
