Faulty lights
on April 17, 2024
Posted by: Newhouse2
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently moved into a new home that came equipped with Frigidaire appliances, including the range hood. While initially satisfied with the overall performance of the appliances, my experience with the range hood lights has been extremely disappointing.
Within just 15 months of regular, minimal usage (1-2 times a month), all four lights on the range hood completely stopped working. It's frustrating to encounter such a malfunction in such a short timeframe, especially considering the infrequent use of the lights.
What's even more disappointing is the apparent lack of support from Frigidaire regarding this issue. After reading through various reviews, it seems that this problem is not an isolated incident but rather a common flaw in the design of the range hood.
While the fan still functions properly, the non-operational lights significantly detract from the functionality and aesthetics of the appliance.
Overall, my experience with Frigidaire's range hood lights has been subpar, leaving me questioning the reliability and durability of their products. I would caution others considering Frigidaire appliances to be wary of potential issues like this and to thoroughly research alternative options before making a purchase.

Great Vent Hood Ruined By Horrible Lighting
on March 24, 2018
Posted by: Oldoiler
from The Woodlands, Texas
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a fantastic vent hood that was completely dropped in the design portion relative to the lighting. If you can't see what you are cooking, it doesn't really matter how well it exhausts, right?
Frigidaire used these proprietary bulbs that are simply horrible. They start to dim and fade from the day you turn them on. After two months, ours were so dim as to be basically unusable. Why would I want to go and buy these poorly designed, proprietary LED bulbs again only to have them go to the level of a single candle flame in another two months?
Comparing their light output to a single candle flame is actually an insult to the candle. With that said, I ended up retrofitting mine with different LED's. I can use two at a time, but not all of them as they will all start blinking. I'm sure this has to do with the proprietary bulb/system that come with this poorly designed light portion of the unit.
As it is, two LED bulbs from the retrofit put out 10X more light than all four of the original bulbs.
This hood is simply not worth the price at all considering the horrendous lighting drawback. I'm guessing that all of the 4 & 5 star reviews were made shortly after installing the hood and before the lighting problems started .
The cold white light is not pleasing in a kitchen either while trying to cook. The LED's that I have installed are a nice bright warm color. Much more conducive for cooking.
Unless you're just completely happy with having to change proprietary cold white bulbs out throughout the year, then I guess this is a good range vent hood for you. You can bet these bulbs will not be cheap.
I just can't believe that Frigidaire designed this hood without giving the owner the ability/option to put whatever type of LED bulb in that they desired instead of being forced to use a proprietary bulb.
Stay away from this vent hood.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

DON’T do it !!
on September 16, 2019
Posted by: Steve Douglas
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It sounds like a freight train on level 3 (high), a motorcycle on level 2 ( med) and average on level 1. Forget cooking and having a conversation also the lighting is by far the worst of any I’ve had. Dim bluish bulbs that make everything look odd from the food to the backsplash and I can’t find a way to change them. If this series of appliances didn’t come with this new construction home I never would have picked them. Wouldn’t let me add a photo

Posted by: nirubs
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great addition to our kitchen appliances as it makes things better than the regular microwave oven when it comes to the air exhaust and light fixtures underneath is really useful with the regulator knobs.
