Bad points

Bad Points

  • The lights are not user-replaceable.
  • Duct can only be pointed downwards, limiting installation setups.
  • Included drip tray doesn't seem to fit well with the panel door and made opening and closing the front panel awkward during testing. Could cause contents to spill when attempting to clean it.
  • Touch controls for fan settings and lights are located on the top of rising hood. Easy to use but need to reach your hand across and over the cooktop to use.
