Product review (5 stars): A solid buy!
We received the unit well packaged for shipping. No damage and all parts were intact. Installation is not for the novice in home repair. Ours required adding a brace between studs, some minor drywall work and relocation of an electrical box for power. The installation is straightforward and actually simple but again if there isn't an available cross brace, you will have to add it or contract the additional work. I would not recommend using expandable or drywall screw type mounts because of the weight and eventual vibration so a cross brace or stud mount is recommended. Additionally if you vent to the outside (which we did) you will have to cut a hole in the drywall, push aside any insulation and then provide a vent though the stucco to the outside. Total time doing this myself took about four hours (drywall cutout, stud mount, move electrical box and wiring, repair - texture- paint drywall, cut vent hole and stucco to the outside, install flapper vent and silicone seal it all - not bad for a basic homeowner based modification. Always measure twice and cut once.) Our hood  was an outside vent-type versus the recirculating charcoal filtered type.and the requisite tubing came with the vent.

 Once installed the system worked quite well and the lighting is excellent. It is an excellent compliment to our kitchen and really makes it "pop." I don't know if the CFMs are as advertised but the hood seems to clear the kitchen area of excess moisture and fumes just fine. Lots of compliments from family and friends and I would recommend this product to anyone interested.
