[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We remodeled our kitchen in 2014 and installed a 35.25"-wide Bosch DKE9465MUC above our new Bosch 5-burner range. (The spark-ignitor on the front-left burner came loose soon after installation and does not work properly, but that is a separate topic). This Bosch exhaust hood with its three high-conductance filters certainly does work well, except that it is VERY noisy, even on its lowest setting (on the highest setting, it sounds like a jet airplane on takeoff). I would have hoped that the Bosch engineers would have noticed that this hood is fabricated from sheet metal that acts as a sound-reverberation chamber and they might have isolated the fan and motor from all of this stainless steel by using some sound-absorbing materials. Not the case. One bit of good news is that I was able to replace the two halogen bulbs with LED versions.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased the unit and installed myself. While connecting vent requires some know-how, the rest of the installation was a breeze. Elegant, stylist, and professional look. Love it.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) This range hood is stylish and looks very good in the new renovation. Beware if you have cathederal ceilings as the hood ventilation covers will need to be modified. The ventlation is excellent with and works well on all speeds. I do find the unit loud when when on mdeium to high speeds. The timer feature is awkward in that you have to push the +/- button for each minute increment. It would be useful if you could just hold the +/- and time would advance or decrease.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, I think the Venahood is a great range hood with a sleek design and good performance. The stainless steel finish looks modern and fits well in my kitchen. The ventilation effectively removes smoke and odors, and the lighting is bright enough for cooking. However, I’ve had some trouble with the touch pad controls. The control panel is positioned in a way that makes it difficult to access and operate comfortably. Sometimes, it gets stuck or doesn’t respond properly, which means I can’t easily turn the fan, adjust the lights, or change settings when I need to. This has been quite frustrating and diminishes the overall user experience. Hopefully, future models will feature more responsive controls or better placement. Despite this issue, I still appreciate the hood’s performance and design, but the control panel needs some improvement. I have had to replace the power board twice already.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My previous hood was 1950's era (I think). It did very little and was a pain to clean. In comparison, this new hood is a dream. I love that I can put the screens in the dishwasher. On full power this hood is noisy but does a great job of taking smoke, moisture and grease out of the air. So far I haven't set off the smoke alarm once.

From the materials, design, function, and even the install instructions. You can tell this a well thought through piece. The steel is thick, the controls a very simple: 5 fan speeds, two lighting levels, and a kitchen timer. The flat deck is great for showing more of that backsplash/wall tile. Very modern and timeless.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The fan works very well. My only criticisum is that I would have liked to have been able to use the hood lighting from time to time as a night light. Unfortunately, we can't because if the lights are on for any long length of time the hood becomes extremely hot.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] To start, the hood was easy to install and was adjustable to what is considered a low ceiling in today's kitchens! It's classy and from a style perspective fits right in. The fan is quiet and the lights are bright...a total bonus!

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Sleek design in stainless steel, very powerful hood, however it comes with a price of some inevitable noise, Easy and straightforward installation process, nice features like the light. Hood definitely worth its price

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Hood itself is good - would have liked in hindsight the bluetooth connection so that our range could have remotely turned it on and off. What wasnt great is that it was bent and I had to bend back into shape.
