Product review (5 stars): Powerful, affordable, beautiful!
Bought this fan as a part as a total kitchen remodel and it is my wife's favorite part of the new kitchen! It is important to follow the instructions on the distance from your range to ensure maximum air suction performance. We installed horizontal 2x8 cross supports between the studs before we put up the new sheetrock to make the install is even easier ensuring we were attached on solid supports, but it is not required by the manufacturer on all points, as they provide hardware for the areas where you are not hitting a stud. (We figured since we went down to the studs we would take advantage and install the cross supports in all spots where we were drilling into the wall.) The LED lights are definitely a bright, blue/white light and not a soft/warm white. If you have a white back splash tile you will see a difference from under cabinet lights versus the fan lights if your under cabinet lights are in a warm spectrum. (see attached photos) (We decided to replace our under cabinet lights because you could see a color difference and wanted our white tile to look bright.) There are warm LED bulb replacements you can buy for this fan on Amazon if you want to change the color of the fan lights instead.
