We did a lot of research before selecting this Broan Downdraft Range Hood. We selected it based on reviews and price point, and of course because its measurements and configuration worked in our new granite counters. It has been in place for about 8 months now and we are very happy with it. 1. It SUCKS! It does a good job of venting from the cooktop 2. The up/down function works well 3. It looks good 4. It is noisy on the highest speed but not bad at all on the lower speeds. Highly recommend this product.
Downdraft vent works really great - glad this product was recommended to me versus my original Boch vent which broke and was far more expensive to replace and did not work any better
I had to keep my existing kitchen cabinet layout for my renovation plan to keep costs down. Using my existing cabinets meant that I had to solve a real problem with steam from my cooktop- it collected on the original upper cabinet base and dripped back into the pot. Ick. Incorporating a downdraft vent into the plan let me keep the cooktop where it needed to stay, and totally saved all my in-place re-finished cabinets!
I had model 273003 for twenty years in my house. It is an outstanding product. I never had to have anything repaired on it. My cooktop was on an island and I did not want an overhead hood type exhaust. We are currently building a new home and I am definitely having the same system installed. Great Product.
This item was exactly what I wanted. Stylish and futuristic while not compromising effectiveness. The telescoping fan works smoothly and quietly, and the fact that the blower is inclusive in this unit saved big dollars and installation work. It i not for the the novice do-it-yourselfer though. A proficiency in using tools, cutting and fitting a unit in place is a must. I recommend the average homeowner should probably hire a professional installer. But if like me you've installed dishwasher, windows, toilets, trash compactors and you want a rewarding and above average challenge, then go for it. My wife initially wanted an overhead exhaust and hood, but is very pleased I talked her into going with this over our island so as not to disturb the open feel of our kitchen.
I do really like my Downdraft. I have no other way of getting rid of cooking smoke, etc. My one big complaint: You can't clean it below the filters. I'm sure there is stuff that drips down the sides of it, but I can't get to any of it to clean it. I think, over time, it will build up and smell, as well as attract bugs. That's a real flaw.
It has worked out fine albeit a bit noisy. I was also disappointed with the lack of instructions for placement of the mesh vents...I still haven't figured that out yet.
We've had this downdraft for almost 2 years. It's great when working—powerful, effective. But twice in 2 years it's gotten stuck in a loop where it goes up and down, up and down, not responding to the on/off switch. We had to remove all the island drawers to get in there and unplug it. When we finally tracked down a service guy, it had "corrected" itself, so he wasn't able to do anything with it. Now 6 months later it's having the same problem, only now it's out of warranty. Not happy with this purchase. Would not buy again.
Questionable design since not all the air is filtered that goes through the blower. How is this device even legal and on the market? We noticed some grease leaking from the bottom of the unit. After uninstalling the unit to clean it, to my horror I noticed that the center of the air intake was not filtered! Do not buy this unit.
Filters can be removed and cleaned but they are so ineffectual that grease ends up accumulating and then pouring out of the bottom of the device. There is no removable grease trap. At least every six months we have to remove the fan unit and degrease it. This is no easy task. The rising part of the unit cannot be removed for cleaning without (get this!) removing the whole of the cooktop. The design so far as maintenance and cleaning is concerned is flawed. In would not recommend this product at all and works issue any prospective purchaser to investigate alternative solutions.
