We bought this in July & just got it installed. I'm glad we picked Hauslane and the PS18 unit. It is very quiet and vents very well. It is very attractive in the stainless steel model. I would highly recommend it if your looking for a vented range hood.
Beautiful looking appliance. High quality build and excellent performance. One complaint concerning installation - it is impossible to screw the two back screws in to the cabinet bottom. The holes are hard to reach and in trying to locate the two screw holes, I cut my hand several times trying to reach up in to the hood to locate them. Requires an extra long screwdriver which most households do not have.
Bought this exhaust hood through the Home Depot site. Read just about all the reviews, good and bad. This hood is fantastic! It is simplistic, sleek, modern, crafted beautifully, has 6 powerful yet quiet speeds. We have a very expensive hood in another kitchen and this Haulslane unit rivals that unit with its’ powerful 500 cfm ( possibly more) and does a great job of exhausting odors with the same decibels as our other kitchen’s exhaust. We originally had an OTR microwave with 300 cfm that was horrible. It was never hooked up correctly. And, it was vented out the back and air came out of the underside of the unit. That is because the installer never sealed the vent in the back. We had the Hauslane 30” exhaust unit installed by a professional contractor. That is the best way to insure that the vent on the unit is properly connected and sealed to an external duct. My contractor did a fantastic job! He had to change how the unit was venting . The old OTR microwave vented out the back . We had him use the 6” top duct and cut through drywall and cabinet to connect to the outside venting system. I absolutely love this hood! I normally don’t write reviews, but I was so impressed with the quality of this hood I wanted other consumers know what I thought about this exhaust hood.
My brother-in-law found this hood for his kitchen and when I saw it perform, I was sold. Got mine and installed yesterday and love it. Relatively quiet for such a powerful blower and love the baffle filters and trap for easy cleaning. Fit and finish is outstanding and pretty easy to install. But I suggest to Hauslane engineers to consider moving the power supply about 3-4" to the left?
I installed this product in a rental house that just got a big refresh and it is beautiful. Sleek, quiet, easy to clean: lucky tenants! I wish I had it in my own house. I will definitely buy one when MY kitchen gets a facelift.
The clock on this hood is not accurate at all, and that is so annoying. Took off 1 star because of it. (My wife always complains about it and makes fun of me for buying this thing, and she said I should give 3 stars!) How can you screw up a clock? Otherwise it's fine I guess. Honestly might have bought something else if I knew something as simple as a clock would be so crappy on this thing.
