Product review (1 stars): Caveat emptor- in due time these buttons will no longer work and you'll be on the hunt for a new range hood!!!
you may REGRET your high end Kobe range hood purchase in due time you may end up regretting it like we have!!!

Sure the sucker looks BEAUTIFUL, but the button design/technology is HORRID!!! Over time, these buttons will become inoperable, virtually impossible to press, rendering you the the point where you will NOT be able either turn on the lights at all or turn on the range due to the stickiness and overall in-operable performance of the buttons!!!!! And good luck finding a place to repair this problem, there goes your $1K investment down th drain!!!  I would say the first 5 years are good....but soon you will find yourself upwards of anywhere from several minutes to 30 minutes or more, getting your fingers sore in a vain attempt to turn this sucker on...would NOT recommend!!!!!! Caveat emptor is so applicable to KOBE range hood products!!!!!
