Product Description

This 36 in. electric cooktop features Downdraft, an integrated ventilation system that doesn't require a separate hood. A 10 in. EVEN-HEAT ultra-element provides versatility for both high and low-temperature cooking, and has multiple simmer settings. And with a 3-speed fan with 300 CFM exhaust rating, the venting can keep up with your culinary feats.

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.

Power-On Indicator Light

Lets you know at a glance when an element is on.

Hot-Surface Indicator

Provides a clear indication that lets you know if any cooking surface is on or still hot.

Pure Color Ceramic-Glass Surface

Comes in saturated colors with stainless steel control knobs for a sophisticated, easy-to-clean appearance.

Stainless Steel Knobs

Enhance the look of the cooktop surface with sturdy construction that adds to their premium feel.

8'' Round Element

Efficiently heats a commonly used pan size and can reach a power output of up to 1800 watts for every day use.

6'' Round Element

Can reach a power output of up to 1200 watts to handle your daily cooking needs.

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 c...

So disappointed

We have been remodeling house and in the I wanted a 5 burner Cooktop. For 18 years my Cooktop was a JenAir but they did not have what I wanted.

Fragile product and poor support

During the installation process the top cracked. No crazy forces were applied. However, because it was touched, Kitchenaid determined this to be our fault and no help was given. I proceeded to get replacement parts (through searsdirect), which I understand drop ship directly from the manufacturer (Whirlpool). We've now had 2 show up broken... and have been waiting 4 weeks to get this cooktop going. Absolutely worst experience ever. I'm half tempted to bring this to the BBB... but at this stage just want to be able to cook again.

Almost great

I bought this cooktop almost a year ago to replace another one due to a kitchen remodel. I love the large size and especially the extra large burner that I use for canning. The burners heat up quickly and can get much hotter than my previous cooktop. The downdraft also works great and is easy to clean. My only issues are that the surface scratches very easily and when there are spills they are quite difficult to clean. I did see mention of this problem in the reviews but had to make a quick purchase with few options due to my remodel. This is my 3rd electric cooktop and the first one I have had problems with. It looks much worse at this point than my last one did after 10 years. If the surface was more user friendly I would highly recommend this cooktop and have given it a 5 star rating.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

The elements heat rapidly and evenly. The 'ultra' feature shortens the time for boiling a large pot of pasta water by about 1/2 against my old cook top. It also looks very sleek and the downdraft works well. . Didn't give 5 stars because it's hard to keep clean - even with the recommended cleaning kit. I've only had it about 2 months and so far so good, we'll see how it wears over time.

I've been using it for a month now and it works fine. Took some adjustments coming from a gas stove. Pans heat up differently so you have to use caution or you'll have a mess on your hands. Clean up can be a challenge but with the right cleaners it does clean up well.

So far so good- I do wish the burners were more clearly marked since the outlines are very faint (for aesthetic reasons, I'm sure).

I bought this in August and the ceramic top has gotten unglued from the frame and is lifting up on one side. This should not happen on an item this expensive.

We've used the cooktop for just over one month. We find it difficult to keep the black ceramic surface clean. Even when not in use, dust particles show up on the surface after a couple of days. No instructions or explanation was in the Use and Care Guide about the 6" element or 10" element labeled Even-Heat and Even-Heat ULTRA, respectively. On Low heat, the 6"control is labeled (Even-Heat MELT and ULTRA LOW). The 10" control is labeled (Even-Heat SIMMER and ULTRA LOW). What does all this mean and how should we use these elements in cooking? We would appreciate a reply.
