Good ventilation, bad control design
on December 1, 2023
Posted by: jr638
I bought this based on reviews elsewhere that all said Hauslane was one of the best brands for range hoods. And the ventilation truly is amazing -- it really does a great job of even reaching the front burners. It has 2 fans, unlike the cheaper hood that have 2 grilles but a single fan. So if all you care about is ventilation, definitely buy this.
The steam cleaning feature is interesting. It has what looks like a pump and a small heating unit (similar to a one-cup coffee maker), but it seems more like a warm water clean than a steam clean. Obviously it's brand new so it's not greasy yet -- maybe it'll perform better in the future. It does mean you need somewhere to store the water tank, however.
However, there are some really disappointing design choices for something of this price, and I have no idea what Hauslane's design team was thinking:
1) There's a clock. Why? Who, in human history, has been in a kitchen with a microwave and a conventional oven and said "You know what this kitchen needs? A third clock that I have to change twice a year for daylight savings and reset after power failures." There is literally no reason for this to have a clock display, even if it needs to display a timer for the steam cleaning cycle (and honestly, it doesn't even need to do that. It's a 3 minute cycle). And the clock dots blink like it's 1980-something VCR. No modern 7-segment display clocks blink. If other people like clocks, great. But let me disable it, even if it's flipping a DIP switch on the board.
2) It chimes loudly when you turn it on and off. Again, why? And why can't this be disabled with a setting or even a physical switch? My washing machine also beeps at the end of a cycle, but it can be disabled.
3) The lights are sharply angled towards the back, such that the front burners are almost in shadow. And they only have one brightness setting. The hood this is replacing (a Faber Levante which was half the price) has that feature. Even the cheapest contractor-grade hoods these days have "bright" and "dim" settings for lights.

Stylish and powerful hood
on November 22, 2023

from Vernon Hills IL
We bought this range hood because of the new self-cleaning technology that it offers. I couldn't be happier. It is such a sleek and compact model, yet it offers such powerful suction and cleans itself. I couldn't ask for anything better to keep my kitchen clean and carcinogen free.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Houslane selfcleaning perimetersuction vented vent
on November 17, 2023
Posted by: Barb53
I bought the self cleaning hood with perimeter suction about a year ago. Best hood vent I've had. Hood vent cleaning is a breeze with this one. It works great. The steam cleans the fan to keep it free of grease and clean up is easy. I clean it up with non harmful grease remover. The suction is great also. I am moving soon and will be putting one in the new house.

Beautiful Addition to Our Kitchen
on November 10, 2023

The hood arrived in perfect condition, packed well and on time. The instructions are written well and all in all the hood is easy to install. More than one person is required unless you have the fancy jacks to lift the hood into its final destination. I was concerned about the 6 inch vent on the unit since my house has 4 inch duct that is in the walls and I'm not able to swap them out unless I'm willing to break through some of those walls. So I bought a 6 inch to 4 inch reducer and it works great. the hood is beautiful and VERY functional. It moves a serious amount of air and pulls all smoke, steam and smells out from over the oven. I highly recommend it!

High quality, superb product
on November 6, 2023
Posted by: Winnie
I’ve had this range hood for a little under a year and it’s outperformed my expectations. I can fry all day and can’t smell a thing in my kitchen. It looks sleek and modern, has a self cleaning feature, and quiet on the lower settings. They also have amazing customer support. I’m super happy with it and have recommended it to all my friends and family.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Most powerful self cleaning hood if you fry daily
on October 4, 2023
Posted by: acph
from Toronto ON
I bought this rangehood 3 years ago after a thorough search. It had all the features I wanted- powerful suction, autoclean, sleek design, sharp digital display and bright lighting. The five different fan speeds let me use the hood efficiently- I can adjust the speed based on what I’m cooking and how the process goes. I always use level 1 whenever I’m cooking, no matter what I’m cooking, to pull away heat/fumes all while listening to the radio at a normal “office waiting room” volume. It’s quiet enough for that. If I’m stir frying, which is pretty much everyday, then I use level 4 or 5 which really exhausts the smoke/fumes- you can see the vapours being pulled up into the fans. Of course, it’s louder so I can no longer hear the radio but it’s a small sacrifice for a clear & clean smelling kitchen. I use it everyday and have not needed to replace the light bulbs but they’re easy enough to switch out. The autoclean is amazing. If you’ve ever had to deep clean a rangehood you know how gruelling and time consuming a task it is. Having the autoclean which I can run every week makes deep cleaning unnecessary. The hood doesn’t buildup grease which also means the fans run more effectively. Overall, the best rangehood I’ve ever had.
I would recommend this to a friend!
