Product review (5 stars): Price/Function Sweetspot
I agree with the reviewer who did not find many alternatives to this hood.  Oddly enough, quite a few of my "pros" lean the opposite way from that reviewer's "cons."

Pros:
1) The air intake areas are directly above the burners on my cooktop.  As long as I follow manufacturer advice and "web wisdom" and run the fan a short while BEFORE I start cooking, this configuration makes the job of the fan easier.  Also pleased to note that the air inlet area is designed to funnel air to where the fan can pick up the rising fumes best, and maximize the filter area used.

2) The middle area IS large.... it is taken up almost entirely by a squirrel cage that does a great job moving air.

3) I remain VERY impressed with how much air this hood moves on "low!"  I THOUGHT it wasn't moving the air, then set pots to boil on all four burners. I could see the vapor going up into the air inlets and NOT into the room.  This is the setting I use for most steaming or egg cooking.

4) The "high" fan setting really moves air, as long as I provide a good source of "makeup air."  This is the setting I use most of the time I cook with oil in any form on high heat.

5) On my stainless version the metal is pretty thin. On the other hand, the shapes make it pretty rigid once properly installed.  The fan housing DOES need to be handled carefully.  Careless grabbing can cause bends in places that WILL degrade operation, but under normal operation that's not a concern.  I liked that the metal gauge used, and removable fan assembly, made it light enough to hold the thing up for installing, and to pull major components down for cleaning.

6) This is VERY clean-able!  The large middle panel comes off to expose the fan assembly, so it can be washed in the sink.  The fan assembly comes off (hard on my back, but it DOES come off) so it can be thoroughly degreased.  The filters cover the inlet fully, but are super easy to remove.  The only part not readily cleanable is the outer upper sides of the inlet area.

7) "Low" is quiet!  I can't hear it if any other appliance in the kitchen is on.  I need to develop new habits to remember to turn it off when I'm done with it.

Con's

1) I've installed two of these, and am convinced the ductwork is a pain.  The outlet is nominally 3 1/4" x 10".  While the final outlet IS that size, the part against the wall is bigger.  Functionally, this DOES help with the airflow, easing the constriction to the smaller duct size.  From an installation perspective, this means being very careful sizing and framing the hole on the inner wall DIFFERENTLY from the hole in the outer wall.  Well worth the aggravation, but one more thing to do in an inconvenient spot.

2) I'm not fully satisfied with the lights.  I CAN use LEDs, and the least expensive Home Depot units work great... on HIGH only.  Broan customer support was SUPER, walking me through the options, but even the best halogen bulb I could find flickered on the "low" setting.  On Broan's recommendation, I contacted halogen and LED makers.  Philips was emphatic that they did not support ANY of their halogen devices for use in a range hood.  Once the halogens I'm trying now give out I'll stick with the Home Depot LED units, which give a more uniform and pleasant light on "high" and just not use the "low" setting.  I understand it MIGHT be possible to do a "user mod" and put a dimmer on instead of the two position switch, but am not eager to get into that on this otherwise great hood.

3) Changing the lights, for me, was a bear.  It's even harder with halogen, which is not supposed to have oily fingerprints.  Another reason I'll be going with LEDs.

4) I also wish the controls had been placed outside the hood.  I cringe to think what kind of crud will end up in them.  The inside of the control area is one part of the hood that is NOT easy to clean.

Overall, I'm very pleased with this hood.  I'm constantly surprised how much air moves at "low", and how quiet "low" is.  On "high" it clears out all the fumes my old hood would have left behind.  The lights light up where I'm cooking.  Except for the interior interface, installation was pretty easy.

There really are VERY few options with these features at this price range.  I think most of them are variations on this offering from Broan.  It hits a real sweet spot of price and functionality.
