This is easy to use and stylish. Very quiet and it does the job of pulling the steam and smell away from the range.
I would recommend this to a friend

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.

this works well. My biggest complaint is that it does not include a charcoal filter. The filter is only necessary if you are not venting it to the outside. Neither Best Buy nor anyone else had them in stock. In fact you can only get them from GE. GE won't ship them fast either so it was a good two weeks before I could use the hood properly. That was my biggest complaint

Love this hood so much! Extremely quiet even on the high setting. I love the dimmable lights, however I wish they were a cooler white color, will be switching them out. I also wish this came with the charcoal filter, had to purchase separately and it makes a huge difference! Overall though extremely happy with this purchase!

We purchased this as part of an appliance overhaul of our kitchen. We wanted the hood to match our range (slate). We replaced an 18-year-old suite of GE appliances, including range hood (all still working fine). An instant rebate on fridge and range from Bestbuy covered the cost of this item. We basically got a cosmetic improvement. This range hood looks high-end for what it is, but performance is not really better than the one replaced. A weird design change has resulted in the fan being placed on one side of the vent. Although the hood looks like it will draw air symmetrically from the range top, it does not! It does a good job drawing from the left side of the range top, but very poorly from the right. As the one who does most of the cooking, all I can say is "aaarrrggghhh!" Also, our set-up vents externally, but this thing returns 20% of the air into the kitchen through the front vent despite the presence of an insert to redirect the air flow. The installation was easy, as it fit the old footprint exactly.

The matching range hood unit to our new stove is perfect, It works great. I love the 3 speed fans, but the 3rd one is so powerful and little loud. I hardly use it. I think its only necessary if you burnt something and there's a lot of smoke. lol I

Nice looking design and easy to install. But missing the remote and able to get one from customer support.

Like the hood and it looks nice, quiet. The only part I am not thrilled with is light lights are in front, one on either side and light does not light the whole stove (back burners) as well as my single light in the middle on my old one. I can see well enough and I am sure I will get used to it. Also the charcoal filters do not come with it you must order them.

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.
Hi there! Thanks for your review and for choosing GE Appliances. We love to hear that this unit has a good fan and light that works well while also looking nice! If you have any questions, feel free to to reach out to us at our social pages. Take care! Emily@GEA

Easy to install and it doesn’t make as much noise. For the price I purchased you are getting a lot for your money.

This is a good looking vent system,very easy to install.The underneath part is fully inclosed so it pulls smoke up evenly.The two lights are very good for lighting the entire surface of the stove and can be turned low for a night light.

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.

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.
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.
