C IL | You go, Boog! We have a down draft Jenn-air in the island. Works great. Drawers underneath the cooktop for pots and pans. Modify top drawer to fit around the exhaust fan that is under island. Exhaust through the floor out side of crawlspace. Very nice open feeling in the room. We have the "bar" raised 6" to somewhat hide the cooktop from the front. We don't eat at the bar, but can. Our bar is built deep enough for 18" cabinets facing the front, so the bar counter is pretty large. Please make your cooktop counter/cabinets custom 2" deeper since the large pots on the cooktop will be very close to the raised bar at the back of the cooktop. Respectful of others' opinions, and we just like the openness of our system, and don't notice the downdraft problems. Good luck to you! | |
