Product review (4 stars): Low Profile Fan
I chose this fan because of its low-profile height.  This was a replacement fan, so I was constricted by the current kitchen setup.  We were able to install it ourselves, despite not being especially handy, since all of the electrical and ductwork was already there.  The only thing I don't like about this fan is the noise.  Even on the quietest setting, it's very loud.  I have to step out of the room to take a phone call when it's on.
