Product review (3 stars): Overall, this hood has been a bit of a disappointment
A good-looking unit that moves a lot of air. It is loud on high speed, not so much on low or medium. The real issue for us has been the switch controlling the lights and the automatic operation of the fan when the hood senses the heat level from the cooktop.

The plastic layer covering the light switch buttons has disintegrated over time, until there's nothing left of it. Not an attractive look. Recently, the light switch has failed completely and the lights are no longer usable. The heat sensing automatic fan operation is an annoyance; I want to determine if the fan is on or off - period.

Overall, this hood has been a bit of a disappointment, as it's only 2-3 years old. I will consider another Broan product, but I'll stick to units with rocker or maybe capacitive touch controls.
