The item was shipped by the retailer very poorly. Box was open and parts had to be put back in the box by delivery team. Only damage was the control panel became dislodged. Fortunately, I am capable of fixing myself and did not need to send back. Not installed yet, but it does blow fine.

It's louder than you think. But it needs to be to pull that much air. Make sure you plan for 2 - 6" ducts coming out of the house or you won't get the airflow listed. Also, you need a source of make-up air, or you will "suction" the house and get less output.

Amazing high end, commercial grade hood vent. I am extremely disappointed that they do not state it needs to be installed under a cabinet. There is no exhaust pipe cover, so all the duct work is exposed. We are now going to have to buy a separate product to close it all in, At minimum, forno should be selling, an accessory option.

Just got this installed by my contractor. I was surprised by the noise level. It was so much quieter than I thought it would be. It has a light, and four levels to use, and I got the extended chimney. I have a vaulted ceiling so I had to buy another extension for the chimney. Seamless finish.

It looks nice. Control panel went out and had to be replaced after turning it on one time. Forno did replace the panel. Took some time and a lot of emails and phone calls to get it accomplished. But, works since then. It is loud. Doesn’t pull much from stove top even though it’s super loud

Got my range hood a week ago. It works as expected. The shelf is a great addition. My only con is that this is no timer. I just got a magnetic time to do the job, plus I away have Alexa to assist. All in all, I am happy with my purchase at this time.

Aside from disliking a forced review when I haven't really put the range hood (36" FRHWM5029) through its paces; the hood came very well packed, the installation went smoothly, and the hood looks fantastic on the wall. It is exactly what we wanted. It is heavy - plan on 3 people to hang it on the wall. Pros: It is quieter than I expected. The warming lights are great and should work well (especially for taco Tuesdays). Cons: The LED task light is not dimmable and it's bright. Bit baffled as to the fan controls...hit + and it comes on high, hit - and it comes on high. With this kind of CFM power, I think it would be better if the - started it on low. The stainless backsplash is too short (unless you have counters with that 4" integrated cove backsplash. With granite and a drop in gas cooktop, we had the choice of hanging the hood/warming shelf too low to be useful or having a ~4" gap. The option of a taller backsplash would have been nice.

It's a beautiful piece. The warming rack is excellent. I didn't expect how useful it would be. But: the hood is loud. And, it is not yet performing well. The left motor pulls strongly. The right motor is weak and underperforming. Also, the product came with very skimpy documentation - like, one page. Worse, it came with no instructions, recommendations or hardware for installing and routing the exhaust. We initially joined the left and right exhaust to a "T" junction and fed that out one 6 inch exhaust. The hood did virtually nothing in that config. No suction. Then we rerouted each exhaust to its own separate 6 inch tube out the house wall. This is where we are now. One motor exhausts about 1/3 the airflow as the other. We need service and are optimistic that this will be fixed.

30 Inch Range Hood Vent moves a good amount of air.

Pairs so well with our 48" Capriasca range. Beautiful and functional in all design aspects. Would have liked both exhausts ducted into one for more compct and easier installation. Either way, we still love it.
