Product review (3 stars): Good for tall ceilings
We are starting to install our hood so this review only pertains to installation. The hood looks great. Two problems. We have 8foot ceilings (7'11" to be exact) and as shipped you cannot make the hood any shorter than 31". Our stove's cook top is 38" off the floor (slightly taller than standard)which means the space from top to hood is 26". The website says a minimum of 30" space while the manual says 28". At it's current height it is eye level and our foreheads are nearly touching it while in cooking position. To gain one inch we will have to cut the vertical rails of the bracket as they are hitting the transformer box. To get 1-2 inches more we will have to trim the top of the lower slider (cut will be covered by sliding fascia). Second problem is that the bracket is a L shape which torques the upper bracket making the hood and sliding fascia piece un-level. We are going to try to correct this with steel strapping screwed as a truss.
