This range hood was a total disaster out of the box. Factory scratches on metal parts, rusty screws, double rivet in the same hole intended for one rivet and a greasy protective coating instead of a plastic film. Returned the first one thinking it was a defect or return and the second one was even worse! ZLINE belongs in the back of the line with this appliance!

Easy to install. Looks great. Works well. Only negative is that the fan is very loud even on lowest setting despite being sold as a reduced noise unit.

Just on person’s opinion

Leave your college marketing jargon out of your promo video. People don’t want to hear about the segment of the market your product fits in, they want to hear about the features of the product and how it will service their needs. Not trying to be rude, just my initial thoughts after watching your video.

ZLINE under Cabinet Range was easy to install with smart installation tools. The fan is powerful and clears the air in seconds!! It exceeded my expectations with a great price!!

Disappointed with quality control and design

After installing the hood, I noticed that there was a lot of vibration when using med and high speed. Noticed that one of the fans was wobbling. Removed the fan guard and the fan. No vibration with only the other fan left. Touched the motor that didn't have a fan an it was loose. hand tightened 2 loose screws, put the fan back on and the vibration was gone. Could only hand tighten the screws because all I had access to was from the inside. Very poor QC/Design for such an Expensive product!!

Solid, well-made and stylish--though fairly loud.

Works well--but a bit loud when using the higher settings. Installation was straightforward and the instructions were clear. I'd read other reviews that mentioned the volume of the fan and found that was correct--but on low, it's not bad, and actually works better on the lowest setting than our previous micro-hood did on high. If I use a higher setting (short term) it works even better, but again, I wish it ran more quietly.

The sheet metal on the shell of this hood is very thin and the joints between the top and sides are welded, rather than being bent. This, along with the poor quality of the welds, caused them to crack along their entire length on the unit I received. The item arrived in this condition and there was no evidence of other damage. This indicates really poor quality control by Zline. Zline's customer service was extremely difficult to contact (repeated calls were required to get in touch with anyone) and repeatedly insisted that this was Wayfair's problem to solve and not theirs. After some difficulty, Wayfair was ultimately the party to make it right and allowed me to return the product for a refund.

Gorgeous addition to our kitchen

The hood fits perfectly into the theme of our 100 year old farm house. The option to add the stainless steel moulding was the perfect touch. We only have 7' ceilings so had to purchase the short ceiling kit in addition to the hood. We went with the recirculating option and while it does a good job we mY end up doing a direct vent as we can still set off the smoke detector! It's not a quiet fan by any means but it is great quality for a very reasonable price.

Looks good and working well. I like the slimness of it. No longer elephant in the room! You’d not expect an extractor fan to be silent, and this is not. But a vast improvement on the one it replaced. It seems to remove smells efficiently. It’s a new kid in the kitchen but I can give it a thumbs up! Looks great. Almost merges into the background with the new and fab zline cooker below and stainless dishwasher and fridge in the near vicinity. Oh, and the display light is good and bright. Glad we chose this model. We’d recommend it

Excellent oven hood, does it’s job well, but it is kind of loud even on the low speed. Wish that it had low and high on the light, as well. It is very bright! Would be good to have the option of lowering down the brightness. Only have it a few weeks, and it really does what it’s supposed to so far. I will update this after a few months.

Very nicely built

This is a very nicely built hood laser cut stainless, lots of rivets in back good quality welds in front. Not sure where it is made as they keep that a secret on the listing and package hopefully USA but probably China although still a nice quality product. I have a couple of complaints on it, it has two electrical knockouts on the left hand side but none on the right and since I was replacing a existing hood and my electrical is on the right I had to drill a new hole. Second they list the product width as 30” but actual width is 29.5” so my cabinets overhang it by 1/2” on one side not a big deal but does take away a little bit from a very nice looking hood when it’s not centered or has a gap on the side.

This slimline hood works great for removing the food smells and steam. I originally wanted a hood that had 600 CFM's for my 30" stove, but I needed a slimline hood that didn't mount too low under my cabinets. The 400 CFM's works just fine to remove odors. Easy to install for anyone with know how. The lights are adequate and the hood looks stylish without being overly imposing. (No bumping my head on this hood vent). The control buttons are not illuminated but have images according to fan speed and lights. (No digital control panel to malfunction). The fan is loud, but I would expect it to be to be able to efficiently remove smells, grease and steam. Have your conversation away from the hood vent while operating. I would definitely recommend this product.

The double fan is excellent at removing heavy odors and grease fumes coming from the stove. Bacon, grilled steaks and brats, along with the steam from the stove and pressure cooker are quickly removed. We had a handyman install it. He had to quickly modify a couple of spots with the venting, but otherwise installation went quickly. He commented on how sturdy and nicely put together the unit was.

I love the look of this vent, and it works...

I love the look of this vent, and it works really well. However it's EXTREMELY loud. I know that in order to work well, it needs power. But I was hoping with 3 speeds that the lowest speed wouldn't be so noisy. All three speeds are just as loud as one another. I was half tempted to put my old one back in just for the noise. So for looks a 5 for noise a 1, which gives a combined rating of 3.

A solid kitchen fan that's worth the extra money.

This stainless steel fan has nice lines and two solid motor fans for moving air. Right off the bat, two motors are almost always going to be better than one. It's controls are not digital, so there's no electronic issues to deal with in the out years. The light is adequate. It's only short coming is the manufacturer should make it brighter and dimmable. Oh well. The rounded corners are the best design for a kitchen fan. The thin profile allows for adequate vertical distance from the top of a gas range. I only found the top speed (third button on the front) to be a bit noisy, but this speed is only needed in extreme cooking conditions with a lot of smoke etc. The extra noise is worth the trade off, rather than having a quiet fans than don't pull air. I found the supplied instructions for mounting the fan lacking. Being an experienced handyman, I knew well enough more had to be done to do the job right. If mounting to a cabinet above it, be sure the top of the fan fits FLUSH TO SOLID WOOD with NO AIRSPACE in between. The underside of most cabinets have a 3/4" airspace. Insert wood if you have to so that YOUR screws won't dimple the sheet metal. Also, buy some 1 inch washers so that the heads of your screws don't push through the holes in the precut slots/holes in the sheet metal. Do the installation with a friend. I will buy this fan again for other apartments I own if a 30 inch fan is needed.

Lovely and so well made!

After hunting high and low for a beautiful range hood for my new kitchen I came across this one and was really pleased to see the price. It was just what I was looking for AND it included the fan system. I received it quickly after ordering and couldnt wait to open the box and take a look. I was thrilled to see it is just as lovely as it looks online. I dont have it up yet as my kitchen hasnt been started yet. I will take a picture and post here as soon as the kitchen is complete. Do not hesitate to purchase this. Its awesome.

I took a chance on this hood since there were no reviews, but the risk was worth it! I have a small kitchen and needed something with this depth and height to fit the space we had. However, I didn't want to compromise on the power since my husband and I are active cookers. This was the perfect solution. It has two fans and does a great job on the three levels it offers. My one complaint would be how loud it is, but I think any dual motor hood would be the same. Also, I found one customer review on a competitors site that said they had to wait 6 months for it. Not the case here--I got mine in 3 days. If you're looking for a chef worthy hood, sleek style, in a small size and budget-friendly price, this is it!
