This was a sorry unit and never should have been installed in a new home. The CFM's were too low, always had to run on high, it's too noisy and looks cheap. We expected much better in our new home. We replaced the unit with a much better unit. The installer stated he's replaced many of these units as the don't do the job.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello and thank you for taking the time to write your review on your hood. This is not the evaluation we would expect to hear and we are sorry for your inconvenience. We appreciate your feedback and will share your comments with our quality control team.
It's about 2 inches shorter than my previous hood so it seems a little smaller than I had expected, but the quality of the stainless steel, lighting and fan seems good.
This exhaust hood unit was installed in our new home as an "upgrade" with two other GE products. The unit hood does not extend over the whole stovetop and didn't always get all of the steam from boiling water. It was LOUD on high. After 16 months it just died and we had to replace it. The GE stovetop has one burner gone already. The GE dishwasher had the celanoid and stem assembly replaced after it melted and smelled burnt..The replacement has also now burned after only 3 months. We are now washing by hand again. We are very disappointed.
