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.
3-Speed Fan Control
Can be precisely matched to cooking needs, effectively removing steam, grease, and odors from the air.
6'' Even-Heat™ Element with Melt Setting
Combines the benefits of Even-Heat(TM) Technology with a dedicated setting that reaches the low temperatures needed to melt chocolate or butter without scorching.

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

I just had this installed. The cooktop works great - I’m only very disappointed that the markings on the left side of the knobs, are extremely faded. I expected more from Kitchen Aid.

We bought this from Best Buy on May 1. We had to wait 7 weeks due to back order issues. So, finally installed in late June. Within two weeks two of the knob controls could not be turned; they locked up. So, we request a replacement and again get multiple delivery delays. In the meanwhile, while turning a control knob that was working, we hear a loud pop. Then, within a few minutes the whole cooktop starts bowing and completely cracks in the middle of cooking. The stovetop then wouldn’t power off so we had to turn off the circuit. Luckily no one was seriously injured in this ridiculous incident.
