I like how the way it looks. The fan has 3 cycle which I like. The f1 and f2 isnt that loud which I like. The overhead lighting is fantastic. I can see my entire range when I cook which I like. I like the face that the filters are easy to clean. I'm gladiator u brought the ducted one so everything can go outside. So far I rate it 10
Excellent addition to our kitchen. For those still undecided; two jet fans blowing air out through an 8 inch duct -- its a freakin tornado ! - Stylish stance. Blends well with other stainless steel appliance sin kitchen - Heavy duty and well built - Easy to remove and clean permanent filters - Remote controlled
I needed a 36" replacement and upgrade my 20 year old range hood. This QS-90 has dishwasher safe baffles and a grease trough. I upgraded my wall exhaust duct to 8 inch diameter to get maximum air flow. At fan speed 4, it feels like it is pulling at least 500 CFM (it has 2 fans). It has simple, classy good looks. It comes wired with a plug so you can test it before mounting. Cons: The exhaust flapper vent usually closes to one side, so I easily removed it because my outer vent has a flap. 2 fan motors mean its very heavy. The mounting slot holes are exactly the same diameter as the screw washers, no wiggle room. The exhaust collar is tall, so the hole template holes needs to be elongated to the front, not round, to accept it when you are lifting the unit to mount it. The electric cable has a safety stress clamp which forces it to the side a bit, which means the wire will not easily enter the templated round hole. Could use multiple light settings.
First of all it looks good. Installation wasn't too difficult, but you definitely need two people to bolt it up. Yes, I used bolts instead of screws as they were more practical for my kitchen set up. Even the first setting is more powerful than my previous over the range microwaves fan. It is also not loud, I can stand in front of it at 4th setting and still hold a conversation. We are still trying to decide what kind of backsplash we should install
We purchased this venthood for a kitchen remodel. So impressed! It’s extremely powerful and love the lights. Easy to use and the 8 inch duct is very powerful. My electrician was very impressed with the quality.
