Product review (4 stars): Not bad for ventless (but not great)
Somethings are just too good to be true and this might be one of them. Looks nice and seems well built.  I was so hopeful the charcoal filter would be magical and offer air purification the way a vented out hood might but alas, if the air has no where to go, it sticks around. Its great for everyday mild cooking but when you throw a chicken on a hot cast iron, your house will fill with smoke and you know that fire alarm is going to go off. Ive found I open windows in 20 degree weather on a biweekly basis. But I also cook a lot of seared meat and a ton of spicy food that will choke you if you dont. All in all, not a bad hood but if you have the ability to vent out, take it.
