Whirlpool - 30 inches - Externally Vented - Wall Range Hood - Stainless Steel

We love our new hood range love the color and style

Only bad thing is that I had to add a cable to connect it. But it works well.

I have mixed feelings about this hood. It's actually well built and attractive. But the installation instructions are pretty near non-sensical. The back brackets are a decent way to hold up the rear of the hood, but no instructions are given for layout. You just have to measure the locations of the slots that accept the brackets, and work it out from there. Each bracket has a symmetrical set of two mounting holes. The instructions say to use just ONE. Duh? The front of the hood is held up with bendable members that can attach to parts of the cabinet that may not exist, if the mounting surface is entirely flat. But the structure has a number of mounting holes, and you can just figure out which ones work best for you. Get out your drill and screws. Oh, here's a beauty. The hood is supposed to come with brackets, screws, and a round vent mounting plate. Those supplied parts are called out in the instructions. But you open the box, and they're NOT THERE. I had to take the unit back to the store for the smart folks there to figure out that, SURPRISE! those parts are INSIDE the hood. You have to take off the grease filters to find them buried in there. The instructions don't say ANYTHING about that. Whoever wrote the installation instructions was asleep or on drugs. I do engineering, and these folks would get fired from my firm.

Works well but is very noisy. Easy to install and set up.

Wish it was equipped with a charcoal filters in addition to the grease filter. $50 additional had to be paid to order charcoal filters for interior venting.

Not too loud and pretty easy to install, the only thing I would change is have the whirlpool logo on the front but for others it can give it a more simple look

Very good. I do wish there was more than one brightness setting on this hood. But it does the job. Very good.

Removal of the sticker permanently stained the hood The quality is extremely poor, it is just sheet metal and very bendable The construction (welds) do not line up It took 2 hours if hard rubbing with Turtle Wax to clean and still is spotty DO NOT BUY

Extremely loud!!! Can't stand to listen to it! I worked well for 1 year, now makes an electrical humming noise when it starts up. I DO NOT recommend purchasing this product.
