Bought this hood for our new kitchen and it's awesome. We wanted to have a slightly higher installation at 32" above the range vs our old one, which was much lower causing us to bump our head often on the edge. With the higher distance, we were looking for a more powerful hood to ensure the steam and fumes were still being sucked away properly. No problem for the pS18 and, even with the higher CFM, it is still much quieter than our old hood. The hood looks modern and sleak and completes the high end look to our kitchen. The grates are easy to clean in the dishwasher. Overall, an excellent choice and much better than the standards range hoods available everwhere. A very worthwhile upgrade.
I installed this unit for my customer. Quality all the way. I can tell how good a product is just by how well it is made and how easy it installs. Components are durable. When I turned this on for the first time, wow! Dual exhaust motors in an affordable residential unit, amazing! Hang onto your hat when you turn this baby on hi!
I initially ordered the stainless steel, and I should have ordered the white. The company was incredibly helpful in making the exchange, return shipping, etc. The product itself is outstanding in function and really dresses up the kitchen. The lighting it provides is amazing, and for the first time I can see what I am doing on the stove top. The exhaust part is great, the range of speeds is very useful. I can't say enough good things about it.
After 3 years in our new home, we wanted to replace the low end GE range hood which came with our Lennar tract house. It didn't vent well (only had ONE uncentered fan in it, despite having TWO grills) and it had become noisy. I did my research online, being a big believer in the cumulative knowledge of thousands of consumer reviewers on the internet. Hauslane came up over and over and over, with consistently high reviews, and a mid-range price. So I bought one. Shipping was very prompt, and it was packed ever so well. Due to styrofoam, bubble wrap, extra cardboard, etc. there was no possibility of any transit damage. The installation instructions were very clear, though it's really a very simple install: 4 screws held the old hood in place; 4 new screws hold the new hood in place. The Hauslane hood is solid and hefty, so installation is a two man job. I made a template for the screw locations. (Note to Hauslane; an included template would be a great idea!) Then I predrilled the mounting holes and installed the new large head screws about half way in. Then we just wiggled the new hood over the screws and tightened them up. Easy peasy!) It's perfect fit in the 36" space. Multiple levels of "suck" and 2 nice bright lights to illuminate the stovetop. The 3 vent grilles are easy to remove and wash. All in all, very happy with our purchase.
