The RIGHT Range Hood For Us
By Minnesota Grandma
The Broan QP230SS (after quite a bit of research) turned out to be an excellent choice for us. I was impressed with the low noise of the fan, even on high. Installation was a bit of a challenge. If you're handy and have the proper tools you should have no problem. Our fan is exhausted on an outside wall. The exhaust port and the power outlet were already there from the prior microwave oven mount so it was just a matter of connecting the new hood to them. Be advised that the hood's 5 mounting screws are only 3/4" long. I replaced them with slightly longer screws as the bottom of the cabinet was recessed 1" and needed to be furred out.
We saved over $100 by purchasing this through Amazon. I had several questions on installation and received prompt answers by calling Broan's customer service number. We have no hesitation in recommending this product if you're venting it outside. I'm sure it would be quite a bit noisier if it was vented inside.

Broan QP230SS Evolution 2 Range Hood is all we expected.
By JCBA in ALA
This range hood is not only attractive but also does a great job! It extends over all the eyes on our ceramic cooktop to effectively remove heat, steam etc. from the kitchen. We like the fact that the surface on the underside is smooth and level, and that the 4 lights can be adjusted in brightness according to need. There is certainly plenty of light for whatever is needed! We were somewhat concerned that the lights might be TOO bright for comfort after reading some of the reviews, but I think if the hood is installed at a proper height above the cooktop (as ours is) the brightness is not a problem at all. At any rate adjusting the intensity to a low level should help that situation if necessary. The hood is all we expected after being installed several weeks now.

Very attractive item, love 4 halogen lights-installed a few months ago before reviewing
By Kris
This was a decently priced nice upgrade for my kitchen to get rid of my UGLY paint coming off almond 80s hood, compared to the box stores. I am updating with some new appliances, paint, not ready for a kitchen remodel yet, but would like to have my old 80s kitchen more contemporary. There was a rattle in the fan housing but we managed to locate it and fix it with little effort, one of the vent screens needed a little bending tweak. Love the warm halogen lighting and variable levels. The 4 halogens, deliver a beautiful look to my cooking surface as expected. The fan doesn't pull as much smoke out as I thought it would when deep frying, but for everyday use level 3 is quite acceptable. Watch level one, it is so quiet you can't hear it to remember to shut it off, it is a good level though to remove extra steam from the house. The fan to me isn't noisy on level 3 because the old one was so loud on high you had to crank up the cooking channel on TV to hear it :) The only reason I gave this a 4 star is I don't like the touch button operation at all, you have to really push super hard to get them to work, hit them exactly on the mark because the transmitter inside is VERY tiny. I could see in a few years, ripping the rubber on the buttons which would be unattractive.

Husband found installation acceptable in our 1980s era kitchen and the vents matched beautifully to the existing venting from my old broan hood, electric hookup to retrofit went well. He works with stainless steel at work every day and it is not a high grade stainless, but it is only a 300.00 item. A refrigerator magnet doesn't stick, that's a positive sign, he states but it is thin. His Dad had to help him only because it was bulky and one person has to hold in order to shim, wire and place product.

I compared a lot of hoods before purchasing this one and chose this for the high volume fan, updated look and 4 halogen lights to see with my aging eyes.

I loved Amazon's packaging and super fast delivery, no dents, no aggressive salesman at the box store, no 25 mile drive, saved gas, and friendly UPS delivery to my door.
