Everyone comments!

When we remodeled and moved our cooktop to a penninsula instead of in the corner, we worried that the openness we had created by removing upper cabinets would be compromised by an ugly hood hanging down in the middle of the open room. Not to worry. Its sleek appearance does not block the views. Many people make positive comments or inquiries about the hood. Very attractive. Actually adds to the pizazz of the room.

Nice product for the price

I bought this model after comparing several similar products. The main things that swayed me were the design, price, and fast shipping.
The unit arrived damage free, but did have two fasteners that came loose and were floating around inside the unit. I found the pieces (nuts and bolts) and reassembled.
Installation time start to finish (including assembly and porting through the roof) took about three hours - i installed this in a finished kitchen. To be fair, I could not follow the installation procedures in the manual as I only used one of the two chimney pieces. If I used the provided steps, it could have been done in much less time.
Suggestion to the manufacturer - include a full size paper template of the mounting bracket that gets fastened to the ceiling. This template could be taped to the ceiling and make it easier to square the unit to whatever reference points needed, and locate/pre-drill the mounting holes.
I gave this four stars for two main reasons:
1. The baffles do not lay flat when installed - they are off side to side which make them look like a W. They are not off by much though. I tried putting them in different spots, but it didn't help.

2. The exhaust tube is plastic and the mounting bracket through which it passes is metal with sharp edges. The tube is off-centered, so it rubs against the sharp edge and could wear through. I put some duct tape around the edge to help.

We actually just got this installed today! Really beautiful! - And, a rather difficult application. - Log home/exposed beams in ceiling and no way of venting the island hood. We are using the charcoal filters.

Super easy to install. Took 2 of us maybe an hour including time in the attic. Keeps 90% of the smoke out of the house. Works awesome!

Outstanding customer service

I bought this range hood 2 years ago. A few months after getting it the lights would only flash continually when you turned them on. It was impossible to use the lights for cooking because the of the flashing. I called the company and they sent me a new wiring harness. It was the wrong size and so they sent me another one. The problem did not go away so they continued to send me parts. Even after 2 years they continued to work with me to try fixing the defective product. On the sixth contact after trying to change out a power module they sent us a new hood. This one is installed and works perfectly and looks great. I cannot remember ever having a company stay with me and continue to help like these folks did. Great customer service and we love the hood.

Great for low ceilings.

There are few if any fans that fit low (8 ft) ceilings. This one has an option for low ceilings. Looks great, works well! Reasonable cost. Very satisfied.
