Product review (1 stars): Buyer beware!
Buyer beware! Kobe makes j-u-n-k and the management cares zero about customer satisfaction. We installed an island hood like this one in our new home and the first time the circuit board that controls all the lights, fan, etc. failed was after only a year. Since there was no Kobe service person in our area I had to replace the part myself, which they supplied. OK, I could live with that but in about 1.5 years it failed again, right outside the warranty period, and they said, "The manufacturer stopped supplying that part, so you will have to buy the ENTIRE hood again." My reply was, "Why would I throw more money into a piece of junk?" What a joke this co. is. The customer service employees admitted as much when I complained.
