The range hood is as heavy duty as it looks. I remodeled my kitchen and wanted a restaurant-style looking hood and the qb75 is great on both price and functionality. The unit comes with a template that is accurate in where to place screws into the wall, but you'll probably need to buy washers for when you screw them into the wall, as the head of the screws don't seem to overlap on the unit. Installing it was moderate in difficulty due to the sheer weight but it was all worth it in the end. It looks FANtastic and works like a beast.
