New cooktop/downdraft won't fit?

Sharon

I want to replace a 20 year old Thermidor 30" glass electric cooktop with pop-up downdraft in a granite counter. The salesman told me a Bosch won't fit but that GE looks like it will. I had an appliance installer come out to examine it and he said it would fit, but the head installer says it won't. The salesman told me it's because cooktops are getting bigger. Does that mean that if you want to replace an old cooktop, you have to remodel your whole kitchen? An option would be to go without a downdraft, but I'm not sure how that would look. Any thoughts?
