It died.  The premier consumer magazine reported that microwave/exhaust combos did very poorly in their testing. They recommended some rather high end merchandise.  After hours and hours of research, we chose this one. Installation was fairly easy and straight forward.  If you are using it to direct vent, it comes with the circular adapter in the box.  However, the rectangular adapter is attached INSIDE THE UNIT!  They failed to put that in the instructions.  After our crappy microwave unit, this sounds whisper quiet.  It easily pulls steam and smoke from 2 feet away.  It has only one fan, which is on the left side as you view the unit.  However, it's powerful enough to pull from the other side as well - as we've already experienced.  Smooth, easy controls. Missing that last star because it has halogen lights which produce significant heat in an already hot area. Should be led lights!  Overall - very happy!
