There is no suction on the right side of this range hood. The single fan/blower is only on the left side. They didn't even bother putting it in the middle so both sides get something. Not sure what the logic is in this design. If it weren't so hard to uninstall and I need a range hood ASAP, I would have returned it.

Bestbuy is very bad, I bought a new product but received a used product.
I bought goods at bestbuy 1621 Monte Vista Ave, Vcaville CA 95688 And I have received goods 3 times, all received used goods, bestbuy all delivered to me the same old goods that I returned last time. I'm so tired of this problem and also lost confidence in buying from bestbuy. This was a very bad experience....

If you do not intend to vent this hood to the outside of your house I strongly advise you to purchase a different brand/model. The carbon filters that must be used for non-vented installations cost $65.00+ every 6 months and WHIRLPOOL DOES NOT SELL THEM!! Currently (9-1-2018) the filters are on factory back order so they are almost impossible to even locate. The filter part number is "W10905734" do yourself a favor & research this before purchasing this hood.
Pros: Nice looking hood, strong fan, bright LED lighting.
Cons: Finding the filters are a huge hassle, filters are very expensive, the LED lights cannot be replaced by the owner,you cannot install under cabinets that are deeper than 12.5", the sharp corners could be hazardous for a taller person.
That being said if you are venting this hood to the outside of your house it should be a good to go.

The fan is not that loud and it works really good. The design is perfect for my kitchen it is not imposing. It matches really good my other appliances. The light is also good you can use it without other lights in the kitchen.

Charcoal filters seem impossible to find, which I understand need to be inserted if air is recirculated rather than vented. The flat angle at top makes it harder to reach over to access cupboards above. Light is nice n bright but can’t be dimmed, which reveals every little imperfection on surrounding surfaces. Descrpency in mounting directions made it a challenge. Again...filters are needed!

Works as expected. However, I needed to purchase charcoal filters since it vents back into the kitchen. They were very expensive. I was disappointed that it did not come with the filters. I also would have like to have several lighting selection- it only has one. The fans work good. However it vents out of the top. These vents are very close to the cabinet door that are just above the hood. I am thinking that over time I may see a buildup of cooking grease on the face of the cabinets.

I can not speak to the longevity of this product as it has been hanging in my kitchen for only a week at this point. What I will say is that we bought it open box to get it cheaper and it said excellent condition on the open box description. It was indeed fine and came with all parts and instructions. It looks very nice in our kitchen and saved a lot of space where the microwave used to be. It is nice that this can be vented or not and we chose not to vent as there was no vent in the kitchen in the first place. I didn't really buy this so much for the fan as for the LED lights which do provide plenty of light over my stove. The only complaint I have about this product so far is the instructions could be better about how to mount it. We got it done though. It's simple, sleek looking, and looks nice and clean.

I have to say it... I bought it for the looks. It looks very modern and sleek installed, but (and its a very big but) it is not very good at venting. If you choose to get this hood... be perpared to cook all of your food on the left side.

This range hood is very good and looks very nice. The price is pretty good as well. My only reason for not giving it five stars is because Whirlpool did not include the filter which is necessary, and it is not easy to locate one. We ended up making one ourselves. Also, I would advise letting Best Buy install it, as it is a little difficult to install.
