Product review (3 stars): More work down the road
Bought to replace "lesser" brand.  Not an easy install if you don't have tools and "imagination".  Very nice appearance (after returning first due to damage during shipping).  Item was shipped in showroom type box, not protected at all. We really like the dual lights with two brightness settings. Great air flow but droning of motor is bothersome at all speeds.  AFTER 6 months the motor began to seize up. Replacement motor is about $45 (rather steep).  Decided to disassemble original. Found motor shaft coated with sticky (cooking) residue. Cleaned and reassembled; worked fine for a week. Same problem. Experimented with motor out of housing but with fan. Unit gets VERY hot and will boil water drops or oils.  Found that other users had similar problems with motor sticking.  I chose to remove motor, extend duct work outside and install an inline duct fan there. Works great and is much quieter.  A shame such a costly (to me), brand name unit has a badly engineered motor (noted that the motor is China made.).
