Product review (5 stars): Hate the idea of an ugly overhead exhaust vent and don't want the expense of a pop up vent in your island?
Remodeled my kitchen and did not want to go to the expense of a pop up exhaust since my cooktop in in my island and I did not want an obstruction overhead with a vent. This firtthe bill perfectly! It pulls out cooking orders and steam lickety split. The exhaust is very powerful. I opted for the extra filter, but probably is not needed. I do not do much frying. This was a great alternative to an overpriced, inefficient, hardly ever used traditional exhaust fan set up. Switch is wired into my island, installed overhead in ceiling.
