beautiful and well made

This range hood was very easy to install. It came with an extension piece for the vent cover but when we installed the hood at 30 inches above the counter top, ( where I wanted it), we couldn't fit the extension piece on so we tweaked the bottom one to fit. This hood didn't come covered in plastic like most stainless steal products so it has some scratches and many finger prints from being installed. I have yet to get the prints off even with much rubbing. I will hopefully find a product that will help with this. Thankfully the hood is high enough that I can't see the scratches or I would have returned it. I am impressed at how good this looks in my kitchen. I am also impressed at how quiet it is for such a large hood.

Doesn’t come with charcoal filters. Shows smudges very easily. The chimney extension is short and I paid another 250-300 getting a longer extender and crown molding and filters directly from zline and was charged 400 for a ductless install . Did not come shipped in the standard protective cling film as is standard but luckily wasn’t scratched

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.

The ZLINE KF1-30 is a very good range hood. We chose this model because the noise level on the lowest setting is 1.2 sones (~28db). The hood is run at higher settings when cooking, and turned down to the lowest setting following cooking to exhaust the kitchen, the hood may run for 30 min on low. We used 6" metal duct and two 90 degree bends. Total length approx 2ft.

Conflicted about this product

So here's the deal. I received my range hood two days ago which was actually shipped from the Zline manufacturer and not Lowes. Upon receiving the package, everything looked good from the outside. The box was not damaged and when I opened it up, everything was securely packed in place. The installer arrived 15 mins later and we proceeded to unpack the range hood.

Our century old home needed a whole kitchen remodel from scratch but with a limited budget. There was no kitchen vent and we needed something powerful. And so the Zline range hood was our first purchase. It arrived quickly, packaged well with easy diy instructions. We are so pleased because it’s heavy duty, seriously handsome and looks more expensive than what we paid for. The

Purchased this several weeks ago. For the most part, it was easy to install. I opted to have it hardwired, using the electrical wiring that used to power the microhood.

The hood itself is fine but the description is not accurate and may cost the purchaser more in additional purchases . It states "Includes two 16 in. telescoping chimney pieces for approximately 8 ft. - 9 ft. ceilings. Chimney Short Kits and Extensions (not included) are available for shorter or taller ceilings." This not accurate!! The chimney's shipped are each 16" tall, so using just one makes it too tall for a 8' ceiling if you want your hood 36" above the range. I read Zline's response to another comment which stated that they recommend buying the short chimney kit for 8' ceilings. Why wouldn't they state that in the product description instead of saying that the shipped chimneys will fit an 8' to 9' ceiling. It will work only if you install the hood low on the range--this is a 900 cfm unit--you use this strong unit on a gas range and you do not want the hood too low. Zline has to know this. The short chimney is another $75. Great customer service not only means producing a great product but it also means marketing the product in a fair and clear manner. I really dislike being taken advantage of by misleading product information! Luckily, I work with metal as a hobby and I will cut the stainless to fit. But what all those customers that can't do this. Do better Zline!

Great Product! A little difficult to install.

I bought this range hood to go above my range in place of a prior microwave. This ZLINE hood looks GREAT. I really like the style and especially the recirculating feature which allowed me to install the hood without the need to externally vent. The hood itself was great quality. My only negative feedback is regarding the installation process which wasn't exactly clear. The hood came with a very nice instruction booklet - but the booklet didn't address my specific type of range hood and left several steps vague. If I hadn't been handy, it would have been very difficult for me to install this product. But in the end, I managed the install in about 4-5 hours time and the end result looks great!

I bought this to replace a basic builders grade range hood which had very poor air flow. Even at the lowest setting the Zline hood pulled more air! Installation was fairly easy and straightforward. I substituted rigid metal ducting for the flexible ducting included to move air smoothly. It's not as quiet as I had hoped, but it's a LOT quieter than the former hood. There was enough height in the sliding chimney to allow me to tuck it into the vaulted ceiling (chimney was set up for a flat ceiling). I really like the way in dressed up the kitchen, and moved it into a more modern look - with great efficiency!

had it for 5 month, I Do NOT recommend it! no no
