Amana 30" Range Hood with Full-Width Grease Filters

For the price it was okay. It's simple and looks great. However, the built-in fan is positioned horribly. There won't be much suction on the right side even if you blast it on high. I would have paid extra for something better.

I cook quite a lot and have had all kinds of range hoods, from the cheap ones under a microwave all the way up to professional ones. This one is a piece of junk, and I guess we get what we pay for. The price is great but the product can`t even suck vapor from boiling water, it`s super weak. To make it even worse, the fan is positioned on top of the left side only, so the right side is 0% suction power, and the left side is probably 20% since it`s very weak. It also sounds like a gigantic airplane turbine in your kitchen when on max speed (which is the one I`m using when measuring its weakness.) I called whirlpool and they say there`s nothing they can do about it, that I could try and sell on ebay then buy a different one. Couldn`t care less about my feedback as a customer. So yeah, I`m buying a different brand.

I have this non-working range hood in my kitchen for more than 2 months. After waiting for 10 days for the technician to come, he came to explain that the motor need to be replaced. He ordered a new motor and I waited for another two weeks. The technician called me to say that he received the wrong part. He placed an order for the part again and it has been 31 days and still counting. More than 2 months and this item. The carbon filter for this range hood is hard to find and Whirlpool will direct you to parts retailer who charge around $100 for the carbon filter. Customer service is of no help after mulitple calls they say you have to wait until the part come and the technician will call you to confirm when it will be fixed. So far he didn't call back and he is not replying to my text messages and calls.

I wanted QUIET.. I got it. This unit is small in front exposure with good sized large vent screens that are part of the visual appeal unlike, most The light is simple on off. VERY nice leds; with great lighting of the area. The fans has 3 levels with good pulling power on high and nice and quiet on low. The fan pull is mostly on the left side, noticeably, but all of them are like that. I'd give it an EXCELLENT rating if not for the installation instructions which, after the measurements for the holes are done, toss it aside and just have a helper hold it up while your screw it to the cabinet above. The "hangers" simply do not work and the 2 holes they instruct you to use to fix it to the SIDES of the cabinet simply do not reach, fit, or work in that manner at all. The manual writer never installed this thing..
