KitchenAid KCGD506GSS
Features
17K BTU Professional Burner
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.
3-Speed Fan Control
Can be precisely matched to cooking needs, effectively removing steam, grease, and odors from the air.
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
Electronic Ignition and Automatic Re-Ignition
Lights burners with an electric spark instead of a pilot light. For more reliable performance, burners are relit if the flame is blown out.
Full-Width Cast-Iron Grates
Enhance the beautiful look of the cooktop and allow easy movement of cookware around the entire cooking surface.
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.
300 CFM Exhaust Rating
Handles the venting requirements of high temperature cooking techniques like pan searing and stir-frying.
Melt Cap
Melt chocolate or butter, simmer delicate sauces, or poach eggs on a low-power burner, thanks to a wider burner cap that shields and diffuses the flame to produce a gentler, low-power heat.
5K BTU Even-Heat Simmer Burner
A diffuser plate allows more control of the flame at the lowest setting, for more precise simmering and melting.
15K BTU Professional Burner
Reaches the high temperatures required to quickly get liquids to a boil and for high-temperature cooking techniques including getting a great sear on meat.
Stainless Steel Knobs
Enhance the look of the cooktop surface with sturdy construction that adds to their premium feel.
