This is an excellent range hood at a fair price. The fit and finish is pretty good. I love the clock display because it's bright with a clear font. Hopefully it doesn't have issues as others have experienced. I went from a non-vented microwave to this range hood and it works better than I expected. The cooking smells have been drastically reduced and the cooking area is staying grease free. The exhaust is very powerful. It kicks up dust outside when it's on max from 12 feet high. It's almost like a leaf blower mounted on the side of my house.I do wish it was a higher quality stainless steel because magnets do stick to it which tells me some money was saved in its construction. That's reflected in its price, but I would pay more for higher quality materials.The mounting holes were a challenge to access. Especially the left rear located next to the blower motor. I think it took me a dozen attempts to get my bolt lined up and threaded through. It was frustrating, but now that it's installed, I couldn't be happier.This is a must have for Asian style cooking. I needed high CFMs and this hood delivers. I was skeptical of the perimeter suction design versus typical baffles, but I've found it's much easier to clean. Perhaps baffles are better for high greese content, but if your focus is eliminating odor then this hood performs great.
Works great but not easy to install. Contractor took forever to get it in because it doesn?? have screw holes? I don?? know. Something they said. It works great though. Make sure you get a good contractor? Hahha
I can't breathe well smelling cooking odors. Got this installed by professional. It works great if my wife remembers to turn it on. The timer is super easy to set also. Its well made.
Having reviewed several different options, and never hearing of Hauslane before, we took a chance and ordered this... pretty simple to install, great suction power. We will see how this works over time.
I am happy with the product. of course it is going to be super heavy because of the suction power and the motor. I am fine with that. When I was cleaning the range hood and putting back the fan, the screw that holds the fan to the motor cracked the metal and won't fit. Called up customer service and they took care of it really fast. They did mention it is not quite common but was very supportive and sent me another fan.The only thing I do not like or I can tell it does not work is the auto clean feature. the problem with that is the pan where you put in the clean water and the connection between the pan and the unit does not secure well that it does not get a good suction to pull the clean water to perform the auto clean. I wish if there was a solution for that, this would be a fantastic product.
We suffered from a microwave with built-in vent for many years before finally deciding to upgrade to a real range hood. After looking around we decided on the Hauslane based on specs and reviews. I am so glad we bought it. It works great, is super quiet, and looks wonderful. I love how much power it has. Also, we lost the tray for the autoclean function their customer service was great. They quickly sent us a replacement at no charge. Stop deliberating and get this one.
