The original plan was just to replace the existing microwave-exhaust combo with an actual exhaust fan,.. but the we ended up with actually renovating the entire kitchen and updating all the appliances to KitchenAid. Turned out really great. The hood is so quiet I always forget I had it turned on.

Sleek design but installation challenges
KRG88

I bought this as part of a bundle. I like the look of the fume hood. It does what I need it to do. But installation was a challenge. First, I told the salesperson I needed a recirculating fan. She said, "no problem." The only problem was that she neglected to tell me that I'd have to order a separate kit since parts were only provided for venting out. Add to this that the template holes were not appropriately placed making the installation more challenging than necessary.

We purchased the Kitchenaid Hood to go along with our new Kitchenaid stove and it worked out fine. The hood is easy to use and I especially like how easy it is to clean! Our only problem is it's slightly shorter than our previous hood so we're looking at optons of how to fix the gap.

Motherboard Replacement

I never have used the product due to the motherboard being replaced and I'm awaiting a part. It was defective right out of the box! Not the Kitchen Aid quality I'm used to seeing in the past. I will be rating everything POOR as I haven't been able to use any of the features due to the slack product that was sent to me.

I purchased this product a few months ago to replace the existing microwave vent combo and it made a huge difference in my kitchen by looking very professional and also in providing ample ventilation for my frequent cooking.

I purchased this about a month ago. Had the big box store coordinate the install. They did a very good job, even with our home not having a vent to the outside the store recommended the convertible feature and it works and looks great.

Installation is a pain. Expensive.
Peter45

Looking at the CFM rating, I imagined that the system would suffice for the cooking. However oil vapors are still seen above the hood.
Installation was a pain. This doesn't come with a power cord. That has to be purchased separately.
Also loud.

DO NOT BUY THIS JUNK
Unhappy Customer 2.0
2/22/2019
DO NOT BUY THIS JUNK. The fan failed and broke apart after 5-10 min of use.
After the fan failed, I did some research and this is an issue that others have had too. The fan internals are plastic and can fail with heat. It was a poor design choice. Save yourself some money and buy a top-rated unit for much less that uses aluminum fan blades. Google will point you in the right direction and you'll save hundreds too.
KitchenAid Customer service is useless. They refused to refund my money and now I'm left waiting for parts. I can't cook with my stove or oven since the hood fan is broken. KitchenAid has done nothing to expedite repairs, once they have your money, they simply don't care about you or finding a suitable solution. It's been nine days now and counting and I have no idea when the repairs will be made despite being told the repairman has received parts. I've made 4-5 phone calls, sent 4 emails. They just don't know how to service their customer in a responsible way.
FYI KitchenAid - you should have next day shipped the part I needed or refunded my money immediately.
Your business practices are terrible. I will never do business again. Thanks for nothing!

I enjoy the way this venthood works. It is very strong but yet quiet and the lighting illuminated the cooktop and very well, allowing me to see my cooking and the food so much better than the previous hood.

We wanted to replace our down draft gas stove, but was fearful of installing an exhaust to the outside. The contractor recommended this exhaust vent as a solution. Perfect solution.

New KitchenAid Eshaust Hood
Peter B 65
9/13/2018
We bought this under the cabinet exhaust fan about a month ago and really like it so far. We had a under the cabinet microwave/exhaust previously and this is so much better than that. Since it exhausts to the outside it really makes a big difference when we are cooking. The only issue I have with it was the installation directions were a little confusing but we got it installed correctly and it works very well.

I really like this range hood for the 3 speeds and ease of use. I wish it had 2 levels of lighting. Our carpenter had a difficult time with the installation, but I have read this in almost all the reviews of range hood designs recently.

This vent hood is great!! Serious air suckage when it's on high. The light is super bright and the timer is nice n easy. Looks sharp, cleans easy. Not so noisy on low, decently noisy on high, but it's workin' hard! Also, pretty crazy pricey for a fan and some metal, but i really likes it. :)

I just replace my 20-year-old kitchen with stainless. This new hood works great. It has a sleek design and is easy to clean. It is also very quite compared to my previous Vent-a-Hood. Speeds are easily adjustable and the light is phenomenal. Service and installation from Bray and Scarff Arlington was super. I'm very happy!

I do wish that this hood was a little quieter. Efficient, and clean design. The hood has poorly-engineered mounting screws in awkward locations making it difficult to hang and level.
After several weeks, the 'clean grease filter' alert came on. I cleaned the filters, but the fault indicator remained on. No solution in the manual or online anywhere. I eventually reset the alert by holding the '+' button down for > 5 seconds. Absolutely nothing in the manual about this!

KVUB600DSS2 Range Hood
Gman.p68
10/25/2017
These things are a real bear to install. The metal edges are like razor blades (wear gloves and long sleeves), I had six cuts that needed bandaids and many other smaller cuts. The instructions are also very poor. After install, the fan will not turn off. I called their customer service (which is probably the worst experience I have ever had) and got nowhere fast. For the money these things cost.... I recommend you look for a different product, or for $900 bucks, you can have a piece of junk like me.

We love our range hood. The simple clean design looks great with the other KA appliances we got and does an excellent job of venting smoke from cooking.
My only gripe is that was incredibly difficult to install.

Hood MUST vent somewhere - VERY difficult to recir
Tim - Cincinnati
10/9/2017
This hood seems to work well once it has been installed. I am a professional in the renovation industry and have found this hood to be one of the most poorly designed systems from an installation aspect that I have ever dealt with. Thankfully, I was able to install this unit with the benefit of no lower cabinets in the way. If the bottom cabinets had had already been installed, I would have had to have been a contortionist.
Most egregious, is the fact that this hood will not directly recirculate air through a filter and then back into your kitchen unless you vent it to a cabinet, wall or ceiling vent. It CAN NOT directly recirculate air out of the front of the unit and back into the kitchen.
Very poor design. In addition, there is not even an option for attaching the hood unit to a spacer of some sort that could then redirect the air back into your kitchen.
Do not purchase this unit unless you specifically intend to vent it to the outside!!!

Bought this to replace an OTR microwave. Really looks good in my kitchen. It's pretty quiet for a hood and has a lot of draw. LED lights give it some extra class. Little bit of a challenge to install if you're a DIY'er like me. Doesn't bolt in like a microwave. You have to measure and put the screws in first, then slide the hood onto the screws. Not much room to tighten them after. I had the additional challenge of going into a 7" duct that was already in place. This hood comes with a 6" adapter. Also comes with all the adapters to go through the wall or recirculate if needed. Because it's stainless, the whole thing is covered with that sticky tape to protect it. Most of it came off easily except for whats in the crack in-between the front panel and the slanted part. The logo was a little off center too so I messaged support and they sent a technician out. He heated it up and straightened it out for me, no problem. Still have tape left in the crease. I'm working on that. Support recommended a razor blade but I don't want to scratch it up. Will try ammonia. I read that works. So be careful when pulling that tape off. Go slow. Hood also comes with a countdown timer. Alarm is not very loud and only beeps once.

Way better than the average home vent hood!
7/13/2017
When we buying a KitchenAid appliance package, our dealer recommended this hood because of it quiet low speed setting, LED lights and industrial design. Good recommendation - way better than the alternatives we looked at. Sure, it gets noisy on the highest settings, but we rarely need to use them. Excellent heat and odor venting on the lowest setting.

Bought this to conform with our Kitchen remodel. We have an older home with eight foot ceilings and changed to a gas cooktop which needs more airflow than convential stove tops. This 30 inch model easily installed in our new cabinet design and looks great with the new backsplash and cooktop. The fan is very quiet compare to other models we tested and still provides great airflow. Installation was easy after making a template. Love the LED lighting too.

We replaced our over-the-stove microwave/fan combo with this fan. I am so glad we did! It looks sleek and the power the fan has is phenomenal. We're not big microwavers, so we don't miss the micro in the kitchen at all. The light is very bright as well.

Difficult to install
5/20/2017
Bought this fan thinking it could be vented inside or out. Found out when I received it that the inside vent would have to be installed through a soffit. I had just purchased new cabinets that went to the ceiling, so the soffit installation wasn't and option. The other option was to vent outside. I had to bring in an installer who could run duct work through the roof. When he arrived, we couldn't find the right part to attach to the range hood. After several calls to the Kitchenaid support (who where very nice but not very helpful) we still could not figure it out. The service man left. The part was finally located inside the unit. It took three people to install. Installation aside, it is a beautiful appliance. It has a very powerful fan that can be adjusted to a variety of speeds. I love it.

I'm rating this hood fan a 5 because it was just the look that I wanted.... however, it was a real pain to install! My husband has built homes and is very handy around the house and this install took us all day. I wish I would have just hired it done while he was at work so we could have enjoyed a nice 70 degree Sunday in Michigan.

I live in a condo and am unable to vent an over the stove hood vent to the outside. I purchased the recirculation kit and had it installed with the unit. WOW! The 600 CFM is awesome. I do a lot of cooking, baking, and stove top frying - and this unit can keep up with everything :-)

Installation wasn't great. A few of the small screws holes were stripped so I had use some larger diameter ones that were extra in the package. Not a big fan of the fact that you need a technician to replace the led lights. Being that they are led lights, they should last a good long time. One hopes. Also the controls for the fan,lights,and timer are a little quirky but once you get used to it it works fine. The alarm for the timer could be louder. Overall we're happy with it. It's good looking with clean lines. The fan works great and it's nice and quiet and the lights are excellent.

I purchased this hood a little more than a month ago and it works well and looks really good in my kitchen as it should for the price of the item. When looking at photos online, I thought that there was a clock on the display on the hood, but I was mistaken as the numbers shown are for the timer. The only issue was the installation; hire someone to do it as I did it myself and it took awhile to figure it out, I had to pay a buddy to help me with it because it takes at least two people to hold it up. They don't give you an installation template and there is little space to see if you are lined up with the screws. I eventually got it installed, but you'll save yourself a headache if you hire someone else to do it.
