Rated 5 out of 5 by Lynne Quiet fan operation; especially like the 3 light settings
Our previous range hood was old and very noisy. We wanted on a new one that wouldn't scare a cat every time we turned it on. This one is perfect. The fan is especially quiet on settings 1 and 2. On #3 it's louder, I hardly ever use it on 3, but then it needs to use more power to get out the smoke if I'm burning dinner. However, the best thing about this range hood is the 3 light settings. I normally use the 2nd one when cooking but the #1 setting is perfect for evenings when I don't want the kitchen completely darkened. I would recommend Broan Range Hoods to anyone who asks which brand I have.

I've had the Broan range hood for a year and appreciate it more every day. It has a good design, both in itsshape and in its features. I like that it comes with the parts so that it can be vented to the outside or used as a recirculating fan. I'm currently using it in recirculate mode but have plans to have it vented outside. I had it installed by my remodeler when I redid my kitchen, and he did not seem to have any problems. It will automatically kick the fan to a higher speed when it detects an approperate temperature rise and lower it again when the temperature drops, which it did last Thanksgiving. The design makes it easy to keep clean. I substituted LED lights equivalent to the recommended lights, and it works beautifully. I really, really like the location of the two lights; they light up the range top excellently. I especially like the three lighting levels. The three speed fan is a plus. The only thing that would have made it better is if it had been free.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Dutch Constrution is good and surface is durable
Lighting and controls have good placement and sound while running fan within acceptable range. Filters can be removed with ease and clean up nicely in dishwasher. Surface cleans up well. We are very happy with this appilance.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Eddie Exhaust hood has nice, simple features and is quiet on low setting.
Vented outdoors. Air movement when fan is on forces air back into kitchen via exhaust light fixtures and seams, resulting in less air/odor/moisture removal.

For the size and removal rate of fumes and smoke this is a great product. Very quiet in our kitchen on the lower speeds where most of our use is. I would recommend this hood for any semi-skilled installer ( as I am). the Stainless Steel exterior is a plus . easy to clean.

This hood runs very quiet compared to other hoods we have owned. I like that in low speed it takes care of most of heat and smoke while cooking. The automatic feature of increasing in speed to remove high heat and steam, then returning to lower speeds is great.
Also plenty of light while cooking.
oh, and it looks nice too.

The lowest fan setting is good for simmering pots.
Like the great lighting.
