There are so many models & re-branding that I cannot list ALL of them
HIGHLY recommend removal of Shelf Bracket on Chimney wall side, it blocks <50% of the air flow in the Downdraft. You can cut a slit in the side of the Downdraft to fit over the bracket if desired.
Downdraft Modification:
- holds more Smoke & Heat in the chamber
- helps reduce pellet consumption
- helps even temperatures across the grill
- Quicker Start Up to Temperature
Easy 5-minute installation (instructions & mounting hardware included), less the bracket removal
Comes with (2) Stainless Steel hex head cap screws, Stainless Steel washers and Stainless Steel nuts
No permanent modification to the grill for the Downdraft, other than the bracket mentioned
Easy to remove for cleaning

This is my second Downdraft. I have it on both my grills. I LOVE THEM. They definitely act as described! I do see a better smoke distribution and a reduction in pellet usage.

I bought the downdraft and was excited to get it and try it only to find out it didn't fit my 820 because of a top shelf bracket. So I luckily had a grinder and cut off wheel and once removed the down draft was a piece of cake to install. Seems to do exactly what it was designed for. Not near as bad temp swings and plenty of smoke. Nice thinking Don Godke.
ALL,
