I got this as a Christmas gift for my mother, it was very easy to install and came in great condition and she loves it. It works great and is able to be vented either from the back or the top depending on your preference. The only complaint I have it the metal it quite thin and because of the while installing we accidentally put a couple small dents in it with the hammer. They are barely noticeable and not an issue but it does help to be aware of that while you are putting it up.
I've been shopping for hood for awhile I think this is the best one yet, easy to install love that the fan is not too loud and the light is directly over the stove.
I bought a fixer upper property and for now I am trying to stay within a budget while I do other main updates. This range is amazing. The fan is not silent however, most are not anyways. This one came in a secure package and was delivered promptly. It is easy to install but I would recommend having a helping hand to hold it up while it is put in. (or have someone who is good with wiring to do it for you) It has a nice glossy finish and matches my other white appliances perfectly! ** It will come with specified instructions and some stock hardware, but you will need your own tools and you may also want to invest in better screws based on what you may be installing it into. My location was a rear vent so the air duct throws outside through the back of the range and I already had that hardware installed when I bought this. If you have no set up you will need to buy wall range kits as well.
we are regular people probably just like you out there are, not rich! but happy. i purchased this hood because the old one we had to twist the bulb on to use it. this is a nice hood, fan works on both settings has a good light, ahh no more twisting needed!! :). it`s fine as everything else is becoming sort of inferior compared to the past, that`s business!!!!!. what i will do to it is with white silicone caulking I'll run a bead on the inside joints just to better seal them. ours is vented outside and i was willing to just not hook that up and use the recirculated through filter in house. low and behold the vent is rectangle just like ours. it was kind of easy to set up after i used four of the winged mounts ( the ones that spring open inside the hole) very securely. it looks good and will clean easier than the old one due to a smooth (not pebbly) surface. i find amazon really amazing! easy to purchase and everything one needs at one location. how fortunate are we...
I installed the hood by myself last night. It took about an hour - maybe not quite that long. The toughest part was lifting it up to secure to the top part of the space left by the previous version. Once I got that problem solved, it was easy. The problem I had wasn't one I would suspect that everyone would have. The screws put into the wood to hold up the hood with the nice slots created in the sheet metal were actually in some less than supporting material. My problem, not the hood's.
My white range hood looked awful with the new counter tops and pain in my kitchen. So, not knowing what I was doing, I ordered this one. It has a 10" duct where my old one was 6". My contractor was able to make it work, so kudos to him!!! It's beautiful and sucks smoke and odors out very well! (I had the "opportunity" to use it this week when my oven tried to burn my dinner by overheating my dinner to an extreme temperature! I'm glad I was home . . . could have had a fire if I'd been gone.)
So my old venlline overhead range fan motor in my mobile home went out and I decided I’d replace the whole thing because get this . The old 1960 fan motor was 50.00! This whole brand new range was 50.00! Why replace just the motor in my old one and end up not being the motor or something else messing up on it shortly after . Why not just get a brand spanking new one for the same price of the old motor . Come on now . And I installed it myself!! I Honestly think installing this new unit was a lot easier than replacing that old fan motor would have been. This product saved me a ton of money . It’s way better than that old one too. Win win win ! You can’t loose with this thing . My vent size was a bit off but I just took some cardboard and cut it like a gasket to keep the vacuum right. Wiring was easy just make sure to flip the correct circuit breakers off. Only hard part about it was trying to start the screws and hold it up at the same time . Get someone to help you with that part.
We already had a Broan range hood when we purchased this one. Our first range hood is still working perfectly. It needed replacing because it began to bubble under the paint. It is 18 years old. Concerned that the paint might chip, we decided to replace it. Installing the new range hood was very easy to figure out. The only uncomfortable part was working overhead to attach it. It took about 20 minutes to accomplish and we hope to be good for another 18 years.
Looks great and easy to install No scratches or dents and saved about $20 vs buying form the box store. Installed in about 10 mins. Just connect the wiring and attached to your cabinets. Its that simple. Only negative If i had to nit pick would be that mine was only 29 3/4 not 30 so there is a small gap on one side between the cabinet. But if your not sitting there trying to be a negative nancy you would never notice it

I just received my new range hood and have attached a picture from under the hood, as this is not on the web site!!
