Downdraft Cooker Hoods have a very unique design and functionality. They are designed to be flush with your countertop. When switched on, it rises from the counter and extracts from behind the range instead of from the top. They rise to about 20-25 centimetres above the range.  This opens up a whole new realm of design possibilities for your kitchen.  Just as ceiling hoods give you an extractor that doesn’t disturb or obstruct any of the space in the room, so does a downdraft hood. It also doesn’t give the odours and vapours a chance to rise, they are immediately drawn in. This is due to them being integrated into the surface of your counter, drawing the odours down instead of up.
