KB2-BCXXX-30 30" 760 CFM Designer Series Wall Mount Range Hood, Oil-Rubbed Bronze

This range hood is fantastic when it comes to moving air. We added it as part of a kitchen remodel, and it clears the air better than anything I've ever seen in any kitchen! The steerable lights in the back part of the hood are really handy and if you have a nice backsplash, they will accent it nicely.The only drawback is noise. According to the manual, the fan for this unit can be mounted outside the unit down the vent pipe, and it would be a good idea to consider that option. Mounted in the hood, it's quite loud. Conversation is possible, but if you play a radio or music while cooking, you're going to have to turn it up quite a bit to be audible over the fan, even on its lowest setting. I tried adding acoustic treatment to the inside of the hood but it resulted only in a very minor noise reduction.

Purchased for our kitchen renovation. It's easy to install and so very pretty! The copper is a true orange copper, not the pink copper color. We love it!
