The brand KitchenAid KCGD500GSS delivers both performance and style in a 30" cooktop that removes the need for an overhead hood thanks to its built‑in downdraft ventilation system with up to 300 CFM exhaust and 3‑speed fan control. Four sealed burners include a high‑power 17 kBTU Professional Burner and a 5 kBTU Even‑Heat™ Simmer Burner for delicate tasks. Featuring electronic ignition with automatic re‑ignition, sturdy stainless steel knobs, and an LP conversion kit, this unit ensures reliability and versatility. The continuous cast‑iron grates and full‑surface cleanup make it a chef‑grade addition to modern kitchens.
Provides the ability to use high-temperature cooking methods such as searing, stir-frying, and wok cooking as well as low temperatures suitable for simmering.
Can be precisely matched to cooking needs, effectively removing steam, grease, and odors from the air.
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.
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.
Enhance the beautiful look of the cooktop and allow easy movement of cookware around the entire cooking surface.
