Product review (4 stars): Great value!
This is a good product for the price. It says it can direct the smoke two different ways. And it can. It has a vent for it to push up back into the kitchen, or if you have an attic vent, it can blow it that way. Well, if you want it to go up through the roof, there is a small plastic piece you clip on the vent that is on the front of the hood to help direct the smoke up. That piece does not stay on when you have the fan on. The air from the fan blows through there too hard for the measly little clips to hold the plastic piece on. BUT, there is a solution. I got some M3000 and glued it on there and I haven't had a problem since. Now the air goes right up through the vent into my attic. I do wish it was a little quieter but overall I'm happy with it.
