Product review (3 stars): Good value for the price
Overall, I am relatively agnostic about this purchase.

The pros:
-It looks dynamite.  Really nice looking piece for the kitchen.
-Price - This has a pretty strong price point for similar looking hoods.
-Customer Service - I originally received a damaged unit.  Was relatively cosmetic but enough that I wasn't willing to accept it.  No hesitations, they immediately sent a replacement.  (I wish they would have next day air'ed it instead of ground shipping, but what can you do)

Cons
-As others have said, the stack is not flush against the wall.  Had to put an ugly strip of caulk to hide the gap.
-The stack is not very structured.  The area that (almost) connects to the wall, flares out because there wasn't any internal support mechanism that kept the sides in place.  Again, had to caulk these in place.
-Slightly louder that I would have expected given all of the review.  Its not any louder than any other vent/hood, but definitely not 'whisper quiet' like some claim.
