This is a great range hood.  We had a cabinet over our cooktop with an inexpensive Broan hood.  We removed the cabinet and old hood, tiled the wall all the way to the cieling and installed this GE range hood.  It looks terrific and is the first thing you notice in our remodeled kitchen.  It is also relatively quiet in operation (what range hood is silent?) and has enough suction to remove the cooking fumes and grease. LED lights are great and controls are easy to use and intuitive.  Mounting required me to hire an HVAC installer and electrician though your skills may be better than mine on those fronts.  I was told to avoid a range hood with a glass hood which was also a reason we chose this product.  Glass is a mess to keep clean.
