Beautiful design and great quality build. Excellent finish on the edges. Front corners can still be a hazard even though they are slightly rounded. Oil drip tray is beautifully integrated and easy to remove and clean. Filters are easy to clean, but there are sharp edges inside. Best to clean them in the dishwasher. Filter removal and replacement is easy. Great airflow when you consider that my ductwork has 2 turns. Lowest fan setting will hold a heavy paper towel easily. Sounds louder than the 1.5 to 3.8 Sones rating. My old fan was louder with less airflow so I'm not complaining. Biggest negatives are 2 things. The light bulbs are expensive. Removal is easy, but replacement is difficult. It requires placing 2 tiny knobs on the bulb into 2 tiny holes in a socket which has a lot of space. You can't see anything inside the hood while you are replacing the bulb. You have to do it by feel. Once the knobs are in place, you have to turn the bulb about an 1/8. The solution is for Hauslane to make a socket with a fit to the bulb so that there is no guesswork on the position of the knobs in relation to the holes.
Replacing a 20 year old Nue Tone range hood, this thing moves a lot more air and is quieter even at high speeds. Looking forward to a long life with this unit, very well made.
We love our new range hood! It looks great & preforms great too! For reference, I turned on the fan to test it while my husband was sweeping (we had to move our stove during install) and the fan was sucking up the dust from the floor! Impressive. 1st time cooking and turning on the fan, smoke was instantly whisked away! Very pleased!
Wow! Love this vent hood . My husband and I are in getting older so it did take asking our son for help to put it in . Was a lot quicker with third person and it look so beautiful and works great !
