Good height when raised.

I have a stove in the island. Researched Kitchenaid extensively to ensure this would work in my situation. I like the height of this compared to other brands. But, altho it states reversible it still has a "bumped" out part that means it cannot install close to the appliance, like it would behind a cooktop. This isn't disclosed in the owners manual, as my contractor/installer told me. In any event it shows evidence of a powerful suction but honestly I wasted my money buying this. It's 6" away and would have been more effective if it were closer.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Installation modifications due to vent dimensions
on March 7, 2024
Posted by: W11508739A page 14
If anyone thinks this unit will allow for a flush mount with a reverse fan box switch you are mistaken. After moving the fan box to the rear, the raise mechanism continues to require 5 1/4 inches from the face of the pop-up vent box. Fan 10 inches out the back and raise unit 5 1/4 inch out the front. If you are using drawers in the front under your cooktop, they will need to be reduced depth by 5 inches.

Pop up downdraft vent

Verified Purchase:No
Brought this product 2 months ago. Used it twice and was very pleased. Love that it comes up high and is able it vent the steam from the front burners. The third time I used the vent it would not retract all the way down. Called the repair service department for the store I purchased it from. It took 3 weeks for the part to come in then while the part was being put in another part broke. Would I recommend this product? At this time no!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far so good. Only one of four appliances purchased that did not need work.

We bought this fan over a year ago, but are just now installing it. (Kitchen remodels can take a long, LONG time) It's working beautifully, but as I said, we just installed it. I'll get back if it screws up - but I'm not expecting it to, as all of our other Kitchenaid products have worked VERY nicely. I have to add that some of the features you ask about below I really can't address at this time. But one thing I do know: it's SO much quieter than our friends' fan. I LOVE that!

We haven't finished the installation yet. Had to mount the blower remotely.
