Hi Janice,

These owners cooked more stovetop than oven, so they got a slide in range, with the cooktop over an oven. They have a pop up downdraft vent in the island, as they wanted their cooktop on the island, but did not want to see a hood.

Hope this helps, and enjoy your project.

Best,

Kirsten

Thanks so much! just beginning to learn all of the new ideas available as our kitchen is very old and it will be a gutting project
