Picked this up to replace a 10 year old similar fan/ light combo in my kitchen. This one is slightly larger than what I had but was hoping to improve the circulation . It exceeded my hopes and as a very pleasant surprise found it to be much quieter than the old one . The light just rounded out a great product. Have to admit I didn't think this upgrade would make such a big difference but it sure did . Instructions were clear and replacing my old one was simple . Love it !!!
