UMC36 36 in. Haven Collection 380 CFM Ducted Under Cabinet Range Hood, LED Lights, Touch Controls, Stainless Steel

We've had our range hood installed for about 2 weeks now and are very happy with it! It works much better than the old model it replaced (no idea on CFMs or age of that thing but it was time for a replacement, ha). This thing is also BEAUTIFUL which was a big selling point for me.I love that it has buttons only and no digital clock or touch pad... less potential for malfunctions down the road, plus I already have digital clocks on my microwave, coffee maker, and oven all within a foot of each other and this range hood... I can't tell you how glad I am not to have an extra clock to reset every time the power goes out lol.This is very quiet on the first setting, still relatively quiet on medium, and creates a decent bit of noise on the highest setting but you are moving a lot of air at that point so I think it's well in line with what I'd expect for the performance. Suction has been impressive to me on all settings, and we haven't had any issues with rattling.It isn't heavy as far as these things go, but it was still a bit of a beast to install as DIYers just because of the nature of the item and location you're putting it (my husband and I did this while I was 8 months pregnant so it's quite doable for the DIY crowd, just not EASY). Definitely recommend two people for install if you're not a pro, and using the box and styrofoam packaging to prop it up while you work helps a lot. Oh and as some others mentioned- yes, it was a pain to peel off the protective film but it was totally worth it to me to have a product that is in pristine shape and undamaged, I peeled while watching TV and it was fine.In the end I'm very happy with the item and would recommend!

Super fast amazon delivery a day and a half. If you're at all handy with tools this is a pretty easy install. (I had to do a lot of pre-installation modifications to my cabinets since we got rid of an overhead microwave and put in this range hood. We don't have an outside duct and we cook with a lot of curry. If you go "ductless" you have to do something with the exhaust so I made a 4" x 30" x 12" vent box that sits between the cabinet and the new hood. I screwed the top of the hood into the bottom of the box and cut a 6" hole for the exhaust to enter the vent box. I made a grill from some ornamental sheet metal and placed it over the front of the box. The cleaned exhaust exits out this overhead box. It seems to work pretty well so far. I'll update in a couple weeks. The stainless steel filters that sit over the burners are a "new design" so we'll see how well they work. All else is good so far. 3 speed fan is wicked powerful on "high". Control panel is glitch free so far. Only one comment...the geometry of the unit is a little weird--the mounting surface is not parallel with the bottom edges. Hence the bottom edges (of the sides) seem to rise about an inch toward the front of the unit. I rechecked my mounting and sure enough the design is just a little weird. I'm over it now. Will update in a couple weeks. UPDATE: After a couple of weeks still a 5 star. The small bit of work I did for the exhaust is well worth it. I've installed a charcoal filter in that box so the air is even more filtered. The hood does what it's supposed to.

I replace our microwave with this under the cabinet hood. The product looks very nice installed. Only complaint is the fan is very loud. The decibels running at level at 1 is 59db, 2 is 65, 3 is 70db. There isn't really any difference in sound level between high and low settings. With unit running in low it would still be too loud to have a normal conversation. I like the hood and the price was right. I'm going to try installing sound adhesive pads inside the chamber. Inside the hood is a lot of open volume where sound will echo which is why the unit is so noisy. Also the fan speed between the setting are barely noticeable, be nice if low setting was running at a lower rpm.

I wanted something quiet enough that I would use it, easy enough to clean, real buttons vs a touch screen, less than 400cfm so I wouldn't have to deal with makeup air, and a finished range hood that wouldn't need me to build or pay for a custom range hood cover. Since I was also switching to an induction range I didn't feel the need for massive CFM like a high powered gas range may require. It was frustrating that most companies seem to equate quality with having a touch screen vs buttons. My wife hates touch screens and I have no particular love for them.There are likely better options out there if you're fine spending over $1000 with Wolf or Fantech, but the 30 inch cosmo stainless steel range hood has been well worth the $220 I paid for it last year, with LED lighting, baffle filters, and real buttons, one for low, medium, and high speed, along with one for the lights and other to turn off the fan. I did 6 inch rigid ductwork sealed with foilmastic butyl duct tape. I would have gone wider than 30 inches but the 30 inch model perfectly my cabinets in the space that had held my 1980s Braun recirculating range hood. As it is I usually get great performance on low and rarely need to even go to medium speed. Of course having an induction range means I'm mostly removing cooking fumes and moisture vs much of anything actually burning. The fan isn't silent, but I've only been in one person's house with a quieter range hood and they were very proud of it. The fan noise is just enough to cover the occasional hum of the induction stove when boiling pasta.
