If I could give this range hood a zero, I absolutely would. It became completely unusable within two years, and the reason is inexcusable: the capacitive touch controls. This is one of the worst design choices GE could have made for a kitchen appliance.The touch panel started shorting out and glitching constantly. It would beep nonstop for no reason, and there was nothing we could do to stop it. We called an electrician to look at it, thinking it was a wiring issue on our end. He took one look and told us he sees this exact problem all the time with capacitive touch range hoods. His advice was blunt: avoid them entirely and stick with simple button controls, because touch panels like this fail constantly and it's a widespread, known issue. We reached out to GE for help. Nothing. No real support, no acknowledgment that this is a recurring problem, no solution. Just left to deal with a malfunctioning, beeping range hood on our own. We ended up ditching this unit entirely and switching to a different brand with old fashioned physical buttons. No regrets. It just works.If you're considering this model, do yourself a favor and walk away. The technology is unreliable, the support is nonexistent, and you will end up replacing it just like we did. Save your money and your sanity, and buy something else.

When the wind blows which is quite often the baffle rattles like crazy. There has to be a way to stop the rattling.
