Comments (4)Well reading this would make up my mind http://www.besthoods.co.uk/2011/08/downdraft-extractors-10-things-you-need-to-know-before-buying-a-downdraft-extractor/ Depends whether you are going for appearances/ disappearance of any visual intrusion.

Comments (8)I agree with rinq that the efficiency of the motor is essential. I came across just a few hood manufacturers who can afford to say their extractor will work with any distance from the hob and they are naturally the most expensive. I must mention Gutmann as one of them. And of course, what I've learnt the ceiling extractor doesn't have to absorb all the smell and vapor immediately but if you put it on before starting cooking and leave it on for example 30 min later, it will clean the air well enough....See MoreCeiling extractor ducting
Comments (2)Well depends on the specific appliance - some have separate motors that you can position efficiently to avoid the possibility of condensation damage. But if you fancy a good chat about this - best people to contact are the appliance manufacturers, as they will have an in-depth knowledge that the best of us couldn’t aspire to have !...See More- PRO8 years ago
8 years agoI have a downdraft in my peninsula and don't feel that it spoils it. The only thing it spoils is the space under the hob. Less space for pans. But I did not want anything hanging above the peninsula, it's under a 4.5 meter high pitched roof.
But you don't see it at all. And it works fine. Depends on whether you'll be having a gas hob or an induction, but if you have an induction, the downdraft doesn't have to come up above the island when in use. If you're cooking on gas, you'd have to have one that comes up. But even then, when not in use, you will hardly see it's there.
Mine looks similar to this and yes, you can really see the damp from cooking going down like that.
Having said that, I do like the model you picked out, haven't looked at the specifications though. It's worth comparing noise levels and 'suction power' of different models.
Good luck.
