Product review (5 stars): Spend a couple hundred more and buy this brand!
We love it! I waited 6 years to take the plung. I did not want to spend $2,000 plus installation, so I took the risk and ordered online for a fraction of the cost. I spent weeks reading reviews and am so glad I chose ZLINE instead of an off brand. It looks so expensive! All the parts arrived and no damage! The lights are very bright. The suction is very strong. The sound is minimal. I would suggest 3 people (2 were skilled) and it took us just over 2 hours. It is very heavy and extra hands and eyes are needed to lift and level. I am thankful for the review that mentioned the curve on one end of the chimney. It matches the angle of the glass. That would have been a nightmare if we did it wrong. I did plug it in first thing out of the box, everything worked. I prefer the push buttons, less to go wrong. We placed everything together and held it over the stove before we made any cuts. Watching the short video before we started helped us get our bearings and we referred to it several times more. One of our best timeless purchases.
