IKTCH 30-inch Wall Mount Range Hood 900 CFM Ducted/Ductless Convertible, Kitchen Chimney Vent Stainless Steel with Gesture Sensing & Touch Control Switch Panel, 4 Pcs Adjustable Lights

The media could not be loaded. Installed during kitchen remodel. Beautiful range hood with high quality stainless steel-seems thicker than others and very sturdy. The hands free feature is awesome and no issues at all with turning on when not wanted, I tested it several times and you have to be about 3-4 inches away for the sensors to pick up the waving motion. Very useful feature when cooking so you don't get food on it. There is a nice remote with it but I really don't find that I need it. The lights are great for cooking but do not turn off with the sensor feature like the fan does, only on. Ceiling height is 9'11" and the chute fit perfectly with everything that comes in the box. Actual rangehood width is 29 3/4 and depth is 22 1/8. Install is 30 1/2" above the range top. I chose this rangehood partly because the chute is larger than others and does not look too skinny on the high ceiling. Chute size is 12" wide X 10" deep. I used 39" in height of the chute. Airflow is excellent and is not as loud as many others. Levels 1 & 2 are very quiet and move enough air for most scenarios. Levels 3 & 4 get loud but move a lot of air for more serious (garlic, fish) cooking. The installation directions could be more clear and I recommend 2 people for the install. I would also remove at least the edges of the plastic protection on the chute before install as it is not easy to peel off and does wrap around the edge. I put some painters tape around the chute where the 2 pieces connect during install to avoid scratches. I've been using this for about 3 months and would highly recommend. Very happy with this purchase.

Very happy with the product, good quality stainless, looks great and the chimney dimensions 10 x 12 inch were perfect to cover our 7 inch round duct from our 9 ft ceiling and the separate 7 to 6 inch reducer we had purchased. We find the remote very helpful to control the light and fan speed. We had a problem with the sensor not working, but Dory in customer service was very helpful and sent us a whole new replacement control panel.

The package (big box) came damaged on all edges but all inside was well protected and in good shape. I converted mine for ductless, it works well. Complaints are the low speed is too high, the gesture control is too sensitive. I put a tiny piece of black electrical tape over one eye (there are two, left and right) so it does not see my head as a gesture when I move past it doing stuff in the kitchen or while cooking. After living with the thing turning on and changing speeds for a few days, I decided the gesture feature was one innovation seeking a use that requires more attention than just touching the control panel to get the result I want. I might try a few layers of scotch tape to see if I can reduce sensitivity that way and still use the feature but since touch controls are so easy to use, may I will wait to waste time on this when the weather is bad, I am incredibly bored or fall down drunk and hit my head so hard I forget I have other things I could be doing. Gesture control is obviously a good idea for kids and dogs. It does not work reliably with spouses in my experience, creating other complexities and even discord. I think vent hood operation is one which probably does not need it either and in fact, is a questionable choice for its application.A secondary beef is the icon for the lights looks like an icon for settings rather than a light but not a big deal. You learn it quickly and that's that. The product installed pretty easily and works great, looks like quality.You may need to cut down one of the vertical duct covers (chimney) to get a fit if your ceiling it's an in-between height, I had to with a height of 7' 11". The two chimney pieces nest and since the lower sits in a recess in the hood base, making a precise measurement requires installing the whole system and making your measurements and marks while in situ. The reason for this is that when you hang the hood you do it with the duct chimney pieces on it (in place), then slide the upper into position up against the ceiling attach bracket and screw into place. I had to try it once to see how it is going to work, I hadn't done one of these before. To me it was pretty simple adding only about 15 minutes or so to hang it, measure and mark and pull it all down for the cut. The overall job took me a couple of hours, the 120vac wiring was all set before hand.I cut the stainless using a fine tooth carbide sawzall blade (ear plugs). Getting through the wrapped stainless edges of the duct covers is not viable with a shear. I put a couple layers of blue painters tape on it to protect the surfaces to make the cut. I should have left the protective covering on it for the cuts but you cant easily mate the two and position them for measurement with the covering on, the two will not slide easily. It will take you a half hour with a heat gun or torch to get the protective plastic off all the pieces, not much fun but it is better to get the unit in prime shape rather then having to use 200 and 400 sand paper to restore the finish, which works.Seeking replacement carbon filters is easy so far on Amazon and other sites at about $20 per. The motor side (left as you face it) of the fan cage does not have a carbon filter so I cannot advise if this will become a failure mode for the motor unit due to grease ingestion or if this is an engineered induction point to increase flow with the other side impeded by the charcoal filter. The lighting provided is adequate, I would prefer a little more candle power. Main grates install at a funny angle as per the minimum instruction set, I determined this is for great drainage to the rear of the unit.Overall I would buy again. I have only a few hours of operation on it at this time so I have no opinion on longevity.

Great product. We cook a lot and this helps keep all the cooking smell out. Very quiet, fancy and good lighting. Needed help with service they were very quick to reply and resolve. Good product.

I had no problem installing this myself. It has a regular plug already attached. It's quiet yet powerful. the light is bright and actually useable unlike my old cheaper one. I ended up wrapping it in matte gold vinyl to better match my kitchen. Touch-less option keeps the unit clean and the remote works well. very happy with the purchase.

No prende cuando quieres y luego prende sola y no hay forma de apagarla. La tuve que desconectar.
