About Broan-NuTone Glacier 30-inch Under-Cabinet 4-Way Convertible Range Hood
Overall Feedback:
72% positive
91% found the control options helpful, although 9% struggled
I am dissatisfied with the pale blue icons used for the control buttons of the range hood. The color is almost impossible to see unless you are looking at the perfect angle, and everyone in my home has a hard time seeing what the buttons do.
78% found the installation process quick; however, 22% faced difficulties
I am dissatisfied with the installation process of the range hood. I faced difficulties while installing it, including holding a 30 lb, 42 inch machine and lining up the screws with small holes on the range hood. I suggest that another person is needed to help with the installation.
I faced an issue with the installation process of the range hood. The EZ installation devices were not as easy to use as I hoped they would be and I had to use other support objects to install the hood.
83% praised the lighting feature
The 3-level led lighting is incredible and bright, covering the entire stove top. I compared it with my old range-hood which had only 2 appliance bulbs screwed in behind an opaque plastic shield.
The LED lights on this range-hood are of nice temperature, with a very bright highest setting and a great lowest setting for normal use. They are not super warm, maybe a touch on the cold side, but definitely not a dim orangey nightlight brightness.
87% were satisfied with its silent operation
On low, the range-hood is very quiet and even quieter than a microwave exhaust fan on high.
82% appreciated the suction power, yet 18% found it lacking
I have experienced that the range-hood has dual fans that provide plenty of suction out in all three levels of operation. At its highest fan setting, this unit is at least half as quiet as my old single fan unit. I have only used the highest setting so far when cooking meats on my cast iron skillets which create plenty of smoke, and my old unit struggled to remove that smoke.
At level 1, the suction power of this range-hood is almost non-existent and only slightly better at level 3, which is not good enough.
83% liked the ventilation efficiency
