Product review (1 stars): KOBE has no replacement parts for their range hoods.
Just a bit of warning for those of you thinking of purchasing a KOBE Rage Hood.  I purchased one less than 5 years ago.  It stopped working about 9 months ago.  I called KOBE and then called their local repair service, who promptly told me they stopped repairing KOBE range hoods.  In fact, nobody in South Florida wanted to repair KOBE rage hoods, so I called KOBE once again, asking them to just send me the most probable replacement parts (the light switch and processor).  Surprise, they don't have either of these vital replacement parts.  They're not awaiting a shipment--they just ran out of replacement parts for range hoods and there's nothing KOBE intends to do to stock replacement parts.. Note, my range hood is less than five years old--and can't be repaired because KOBE doesn't have any replacement parts.  I called their California headquarters, e-mailed them all the information and what I thought was a simple request, and once again, they very politely said that they simply don't have and won't ever have replacement parts for this 4 year old range hood.  So, if you want to own an expensive piece of useless stainless steel that can't be repaired because KOBE simply doesn't have any repair parts, go right on ahead and waste your money.
