Need advice on range grill feature

[Hubergs]

My husband wants to buy a stove with a grill built in it. We live in a townhouse... Does anyone have advice on smoke, smell, taste and expensive stoves with a grill built in? Is it worth the extra $$$ ?

If you do it, make sure you get a range hood that will adequately vent the smoke and heat. Preferably one that vents outdoors since I don't think a recirculating or a downdraft vent will do the job.

Good info, thank you Philly Ray! I guess I should consider the ventilation and potentially "smoking out" my neighbors from the kitchen vent. I can't seem to find any townhouse dwellers with an indoor range grill. Maybe that's the reason...
