Product review (5 stars): (my review is not verified since my husband purchased it and I'm doing the review) - good suction - rated at 600 cfm
Pros:
- arrived quickly via Prime! (my review is not verified since my husband purchased it and I'm doing the review)
- good suction - rated at 600 cfm. you can def feel the suction when you plug it in right out the box
- comes with a plug
- baffle filters that are easy to remove
- LED lights are bright
- buttons light up with blue when pressed - looks great
- packaged well - no scratches where it counts (front, sides, top, bottom)
- just overall looks great with its curved edges, and it is the slimmest compared to other similar strength hoods at 5 inches in depth

Cons:
- comes with SHORT screws (3/8 or 1/2 inch??) for attaching to undercabinet. This totally didn't work for us since the edges of the cabinet are longer than the bottoms of the cabinet. 3/8 inch screw wouldn't even reach through the wood. Our installer purchased longer screws.
- it is a bit noisy the higher the fan setting, but I think that keeping it on the lowest setting would be more than enough for most cooking. The highest setting would prob be best and needed for frying or super smoky/wok cooking. for the strength of the vent I would say its reasonable.
- technically length is 29.5'' and there is a quarter inch open area on either side when installed. Still looks great to me! (see photo)
- general con for all hoods: why does it cost so much to install this thing that literally does not require any electrical work?? I was quoted anywhere from 130 to 250+ just to install this!

My shopping comparisons:
- Sears marketplace - same Proline product is $20 more expensive
- Whirlpool UXT5530AAS - 400 CFM but uses grease filters
- Windster WS-38U30SS - 620 CFM, looks great, has an auto sensor LED night light system?? my contractor recommended this brand based on reliability/looks, but its $100 more
- Windster WS-5830SS - similar product to above but has grease filters. At about the same price, I would rather get the proline that has baffle filters
- AKDY 1802 - 500 CFM. cheapest at ~$200 (direct thru AKDY thru Houzz/Wayfair/Walmart) but I saw some reviewers pictures which showed the baffle filters were not really stainless steel and rusted
- Perfetto Kitchen and Bath 30" - 500 cfm, buttons hidden underside and sharp edges - not great in a small kitchen if someone walks into it esp since it hangs lower at a 10 in depth
- BV Stainless Steel 30" - 800 cfm, similar price. I just didn't like that the brand is etched in. kinda ugly
- Tatsumaki 30" TA-S18 - 860 cfm, lower price. I didn't like the look of the front digital display.

I'll review again after it's been used awhile!
