There are several different speeds and the lowest one is extremely quiet, BUT the more pull you want the louder it gets. The suction will even hold up a cardboard box; so low and quiet but louder and super strong when you need to move a bunch of air fast! Great look too with no class to dust.
Never thought a SS hood would enhance our kitchen so much. We need to get used to it, since it is kind of in the way, (my husband bump into it two times this weekend), but even him loves it.
We chose this unit specifically for its design. The sleek, slim look is perfect. I'm very impressed with the amount of air this thing can move! It's a little loud when it's on it's top fan speed, but because it works so well, we usually keep it on low. I also love the LED lights - very elegant and functional.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love my vent hood! Is so sleek and works so great. We vented outside and the exhaust works awesome. Looks great over my GE Profile range. The exhaust speed & light adjustments are a great touch. When I get my kitchen remodel complete I will send pics.....
