[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 300 Series Bosch Wall Hood fan looks great, but there are a few problems with it:
1. The control board is faulty, causing the fan speed not to correspond to the setting. The hood should have 3 speeds. Mine is less than 1 year old and the lowest and highest settings do not work, it only goes on the medium setting. 2. Under powered - If you like to cook, suggest a higher powered fan than this. I still have times when it won't suck up all the cooking fumes and causes our smoke alarm to go off. 3. Clean grease filter indicator - I think this indicator goes on after a certain number of hours the fan is on, not when the filter needs to be cleaned necessarily. This "dumb" indicator is just silly (and it goes on very quickly).
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Sleek shape fits with modern decor. Controls are conveniently located. Hood removes odors without fuss or excess noise. Well set up for ease of cleaning. Glad it's above my stove--and looking forward to many more years of easy use.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Being a Realtor, we see all sorts of appliances, this has to be the best we have encountered. Quiet and does a fantastic job. Appearance is very appealing.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Clean, sturdy and efficient - everything I was expecting in a chimney vent over the stove. It's quiet and pulls in the air easily via lowest fan setting.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this to go with my Bosch kitchen in a new house. It looks great and does a satisfactory job. I do have it vented outside(as it should be). Sound level is reasonable, on low barely noticeable, on high you can tell it is there, but better than the smoke alarms.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this in June and it is my first hood. I love the design and it works great. I’m still figuring out the best way to clean it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I titled this review the way I did because the fan works really well. We like the various speeds feature, too. Many people have commented how good it looks in our kitchen. The light is really helpful in seeing what's cooking on the range.
