We purchased our 1980’s ranch style home almost ten years ago and when we bought the house all of the appliances were 1990’s white, including the Broan range hood.
Slowly but surely we have finally managed to switch our kitchen appliances over to stainless steel and believe it or not, we waited over two years to finally purchase a replacement range hood in stainless steel to match all of the kitchen appliances.
Enter this Broan stainless steel hood vent. It’s almost an exact replica of the 1990s white one we were replacing (which was utterly filthy with grease, rust, etc. no matter what amount of cleaning you tried).
Now I realize this is more of an entry level range hood, but we have a pretty basic kitchen and obviously this hood vent fit the space just fine as the previous white model did.
We are very happy with this hood vent, but then again, we’ve essentially been using the same model in white for ten years.
There are two exhaust speeds, high and low. And an overhead light. The exhaust fan when in operation is most likely much noisier than much more expensive models. But again, it’s what we’re used to.
Once we finally have the $ to replace the kitchen cabinets, countertops, backsplash and flooring, we may look at higher end options. But in the meantime, this hood vent does the job, looks nice and is easy to operate.
I could definitely see it being a great option for contractors when flipping a home, someone looking to do a minor kitchen remodel on a tight budget, or just someone looking for a reliable hood vent to match their appliances.
I would recommend this hood vent to anyone looking for a decent looking, affordable stainless option. You certainly get more bang for your buck with this Broan hood vent!
The vent arrived in pristine condition...no dents in the range hood/vent, no rips or tears in the shipping packaging either. Very satisfied with the condition of the vent upon arrival and Amazon’s packing materials.
