    This is a great vent hood, but the installation in my situation was not as easy as the instructions stated. It took 2 of us to get it hung under the cabinets, and we had to install some gasket material at the vent connection. Otherwise it was a simple install, and it looks great, and works very well.

    Great location of controls on front right. Easy to install, and matches all my other black GE appliances. Blends in with the kitchen under the original re-painted cabinets. Doesn't stick out like some of these newer gigantic modern hoods with no cabinets around. Just comes with a little incandescent light bulb, but replaced with a bright daylight led and gives good light to cook in addition to the kitchen lighting.

    Ok, so the one thing i hate is that i had to order the filters separately which is why i gave it 4 stars. When i got the correct ones in everything is great. Like the lights. Fan definitely performs well enough unless you are trying to take off. All in all a good purchase.

    The hood is slimmer than the one it replaced, It is a standard fit and fit perfectly above the stove; The hood matches the appliances and does not seem to fingerprint smudge heavily. The fan is quiet and the light puts out enough light to illuminate the stove and the kitchen area around the stove. I like this hood as it is a great replacement for the original hood I replaced. The hood does an efficient job of pulling the fumes out of the kitchen.

    Left Side works Great

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The fan assembly is on the left side leaving little to no exhaust on the right side. It is also to close to the filter so all the air goes through one spot. The unit comes with halogen lights that work fine but get hot. I would recommend changing them out to LED, if not eventually when you goto change the bulb the plastic housing will crumble. The stainless steel shell is built well.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      Thanks for sharing your feedback about the exhaust, that we'll be sure to forward to the design team. We recommend that you use the light bulb that's included with the hood because this is how we've tested/approved the use of this unit. We appreciate you being part of the GE Appliances family.

    Product was as described and very good quality. Instructions for modifications based on my ventilation type (exterior) were poor. One piece that needed to be installed due to venting did not fit and required me to bring edge down on grinding wheel. Looks great with matching appliances.

    Bad Design

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    We purchased this range hood because it has 4 fan settings and 2 light settings. but after installing it we found the halogen lights to be really, really hot, adding to the heat from cooking. It would be easy to get a nasty burn while cooking. Then the exhaust didn't work well, and not at all on the right side. The fan is mounted on the left side so the only steam and cooking odors being removed is from the left side. This has got to be the worst design flaw ever. The exhaust from the right side burners of the stove just billow up and into the kitchen. It works fine as long as you only cook on the left side of your stove. Also, the exhaust from the left side blows right back into the kitchen through the exhaust vent on top, even though the deflector is installed as directed. We returned the range hood to the store. What happened to quality control? Very disappointed in GE for this oversight.

      Hello SBall, thank you for your review. We are sincerely sorry your range hood did not vent properly despite proper installation. We truly understand how that would be frustrating. Please know that this is not the ownership experience we strive for. We hope we will have the opportunity to earn your trust back in the future. -Chris@GEA GE_Appliances

    I recently purchased this GE Convertible Range Hood to replace an older model that I had in my kitchen. The hood is very sturdy and looks sharp. It has three basic speeds and the lighting is very bright in a darkened kitchen. A great value for the price.

    Perfect fit for the range. The Samsung hood was too expensive so the saleswoman helped me pick out a less expensive hood and it's a perfect match.

    My daughter bought a fancy expensive range hood. Okay does the same exact job ours does. The only diff oh well, she takes longer to clean hers because her vent goes to the ceiling, her husband had a hard and long time putting it together, hers is loud, and people always ask what is that noise.

    One of the worst items we've ever purchased. Installation was very challenging, the brackets are lack luster and don't fit older cabinets well, I had to drill my own holes for mounting. The unit is defaulted to recirculating mode and no matter what the instructions say, is impossible to disable. I had to tape internally to ensure all gases were sent out the vent. The light bulbs are bright but also generate intense heat such that the area above the light burns to the touch. Changing the bulbs is an impossible task as well.

      We would like to clarify some information regarding the installation process for this range hood. Almost all of our models share different installation requirements, because of this this model uses different mounting brackets than other models.

      This model is configured from factory to vent in recirculating mode, but you can adjust this by following the instructions on pages 14 to 20 of the owner's manual here: https://files.bbystatic.com/wB3J2yNSpbWTDBLWuwOHDQ%3D%3D/Installation%2Binstructions

      We are going to share your comments regarding the light bulbs with our product team for review. GE_Appliances
