Quiet Ambiance

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Installed November 2020. Been using g for 6 months. Absolutely love how quiet the unit is at all speeds (boost is loud but rarely used). Best part is the ambient lighting on top of the unit. It illuminates the entire kitchen with bounced or indirect light. It would be great to have a dimmer function on both the ambient light and stove top light. Additionally, if the function buttons were backlit they would be easier to see against the black trim.
Installation could be easier. Even though this works for an 8’ ceiling, the two shroud covers don’t allow it to be raised high enough above the cook top and setting it farther back looks strange because it is not centered. Problem for me at 6’2” I tend to hit my head. Lower shroud needs to be at least 5” shorter and the subframe should be more adjustable to accommodate that height. I had to cut the sub frame shorter as well as the bottom hidden portion of the top shroud.
Pros: Attractive Design, Easy To Use, Quality Construction
