Product review (5 stars): Nice looking range hood
I bought this hood to replace a nonfunctioning over-the-stove Kenmore microwave. After removing the microwave and metal hanging bracket, I installed the Broan back splash in bisque over that section of wall which was unpainted, un-tiled, and had lots of holes. The installation of the Broan QS1 hood was fairly easy, though we had to bolt 2 pieces of wood to the underside of our cabinet so the hood's mounting screws could attach since my cabinet had a 1 inch overhang. Once that was done, the hood went up just fine. The lighting it provides is excellent and I love having the extra room now that the big old microwave is gone. This hood is nice looking and easy to clean. On low it is very quiet. On high, it is loud but it is still a good hood for the price. So in addition to the Broan QS1 hood, I bought the Broan back splash, the Broan charcoal filters (for non-ducted installation), a 3/8 inch (1/2" knockout) electrical clamp connector, and 2 halogen bulbs. It was an easy enough project and turned out great!
