GE Appliances Universal Telescopic Downdraft System
Best retractable ventilation for modern kitchens needing discreet, powerful air cleaning.
This retractable ventilation system is the ultimate solution for open-concept kitchens where a bulky hood would ruin the sightlines. It disappears completely when you aren't cooking, though you sacrifice the raw power of a traditional overhead range hood for that streamlined, minimalist aesthetic.
