Product review (3 stars): Clearly not 30 inches
I'm only getting a new hoodfan because I upgraded the look of my other appliances to stainless steel and couldn't get the one I wanted from Best Buy.  The good: cheap price, fast delivery,the high fan isn't too loud
The bad: at the top it's only 29 3/4 inches long and the bottom is 29.5 so I have gaps.  It looks cheap, it's flimsy and the shape is old school- I cut myself on it because of the edges. I miss the design of my 5 year old one.  The low fan is loud. Does it do the job? Sure but I wished I would have gotten better quality.
