Rated 4 out of 5 by David09 Great look and reduces food odors in kitchen
This is a really effective Blower hood. Having the detachable screen makes it easy to clean. And the variation of the fan using the knob is personally preffered versus having only 3 settings.
The only downside to this is that the light and fan knobs are located somewhat inside the hood. While this makes the look of the hood appear very professional, it is annoying to reach up and under to turn on the light and or fan.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Cheftk I will recommend this any time
We spend lot of time in Our kitchen Cooking. We always wanted a good range hood for venting. Fried fish and the sauces we make can permeate the whole house.
When this hood is on there is no smell at all even if we are frying fish.

Rated 4 out of 5 by ConnieW Works fair, noisier than expected
Looks great. Functions well over the cook top, but expected that odors would be removed from the whole kitchen area. Advertised as one of the more quiet units, but still a bit noisier than I expected,

Rated 5 out of 5 by S1042 Impressive smoke and odor removal
We've been very impressed with the unit's ability to draw smoke and odors up the vents and out of the kitchen.

Rated 5 out of 5 by DrBob Excellent hood for remodels or new installs
After doing a lot of online research I found this hood. It has all of the features I wanted in a hood small enough to fit over a 30" stove. It was intended to replace an older hood, so the dimensions needed to be right. Also, I was looking for a reasonably high-performance hood, which was not easy to do with a 30-incher. It has a continuously variable fan speed control for low noise in situations that don't require a lot of vapor removal and high speed where a lot of smoke needs to be removed. The front end is very attractive, with the controls tucked away underneath (but they can be hard to find by feel). The filter elements are easy to remove and can be run through the dishwasher, a real plus. I installed the unit myself (I am not a professional) without much difficulty. I would have rated the ease of installation excellent if the instructions had been clearer regarding the need for a special part to connect the square fan outlet to a round duct (a standard shoe will not work as it interferes with the internal damper). The unit is a little higher priced than some other brands, but the quality of construction is definitely worth it.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Carito Good product. Easy to clean and powerful.
We cook a lot, and were looking for a powerful range hood. This model is very powerful. In fact, we almost never use it at full force (it is a little loud at high speeds). I like that the filters are stainless and therefore durable. They are easily cleaned in the dishwasher. There are two drawbacks as far as I can see. One is that the lightbulbs are difficult to change given the tight opening and the depth of the bulb in it. The other is that sometimes I get drops of grease accumulating on the front edge of the hood. I am not sure why this happens. However, it is easily wiped off with a paper towel. In all, I would recommend this hood for serious cooks.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Kevin Good Range Hood
Stylish range hood delives good performance. Noise is on the laud side. It's easy to clean the filter in dishwasher. It's not so easy to clean grease inside of the hood. Overall, it's good product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by rnlibre This range hood performs very well.
I cooked a dish that required the fan to be on "high". Had it not been this hood, my home wood have been filled with smoke! Also, it keeps the house cooler while the oven is in use.
