KOBE Range Hoods INX2936SQBF-500-1 Built-In/Insert Range Hood, 36"

Lo compramos e hicimos un enorme sacrificio para instalarlo, con carpintero y demas..... y cuando llego el gran dia simplemente el moto esta amarrado... NO SIRVE.por favor indiquenme garantia.

The fan is solid with impressive quality and easy to install. There are 12 screws included to keep it more than secure enough. Other reviews stated the dimensions to cut the hole for the fan were incorrect in the instructions and this is true. I measured and cut the hole for the base of the fan 1/8" larger than I measured and it fit into the bottom of the cupboard perfectly. The top damper where the duct pipe fits is good and the damper opens and closes easily. The low speed is reasonably quiet, and with 4 gas burners operating the fan draw sees minimal bypass. If the fan could be installed directly over all 4 burners, I do not believe there would be any bypass at all on low speed. The medium speed does not have any bypass with an understandably louder fan noise. I likely will not need to use the high speed when cooking. This fan is great and there is no cabinet noise or any tin rattling noise at all, and it is just the speed of the fan noise and draw that is noticeable. Unfortunately there is only one brightness level for the two LED lights which are quite bright and the lights from them cover the complete gas range top. I highly recommend this great quality Kobe fan.

We purchased this hood to replace a microwave we had installed about our cooktop and have been using it about 1 month. We already had an electrical outlet from the previous microwave, so plugging it in was no problem. We gave it a test run before installation and everything worked fine. We build a custom hood to surround the range-hood. One thing that we could not picture, previous to our purchase was how the bottom of the hood would look while standing at the range. The finish of the Kobe hood looks like a professional range hood, the interchangeable grates and the finished edges look great. However, the range hood itself is smaller than the cabinet we built around it. To be clearer, when you are cooking, there is wood showing around the finished edges of the range hood. I didn't want to paint the wood and didn't want to worry about grease collecting on the wood etc. To combat this we created a stainless steel insert (to cover any of the wood showing from underneath) from a single sheet and then used tin snips to cut the hole to fit the hood through. The range hood comes with a finished cover, to house the lights and grill assembly, so any rough edges of stainless are well hidden. We installed a similar hood in our previous home with the help of a contractor to drill the hole outside for a vent. This installation we did it ourselves by purchasing a 6-inch drill "bit" to create the hole for the exhaust to the outside, an elbow to connect the hood to the outside and a cap assembly to finish off outside against the siding. Regarding drafts from outside the house through the hood. The range comes with a damper that fits in the top of the hood. Between that damper and the one attached to the outside assembly, there are zero drafts into the kitchen (even during sub-zero temps). The fan is VERY quiet on low, medium speed is noticeable and high is louder still. That said, there is no vibrating or obtrusive noise with it running on high. Set 30 inches above our cooktop, the fan moves the air very well and we have only needed to use the high speed once for something burned. The lights are a bit bright but, they are great for cooking. I do not think they would make a great nightlight for the kitchen. I hope this information was helpful for some of you, as I answered my questions while searching for just the right range hood, and we found it!

Great hood. Easy to install. I wished it was a bit less noisy ...you can hear it even when on lowest setting. That said it has lots of power.Also the bulbs are around 4000k in it and not adjustable.

I needed to replace a very cheap and very old range insert above my range. I spent a lot of time researching and looking for an insert that was quality but NOT something in the $500-$1000 range. I shopped all the large online appliance sites and everything decent was pricey. I found Kobe brand and researched a few models here on Amazon. I wanted a larger Kobe insert with the 750CFM+ but my application did not have the width for this. I settle for this model and it worked out great. This unit is really well built, has a powerful 3-speed fan and really nice and bright LED twin lights. The Q (low) fan speed is super quiet (almost silent) and Normal (middle) speed is plenty for normal cooking use. The top fan speed is really powerful but not quiet, which is my mind is just fine for this draw/speed. Also inludes 6" top mount exhaust and a hardwired electrical plug w/ ground. Also there is a snap-in 2 piece flapper which will prevent any backflow of air through the fan/inside which is nice. There was also two sets of filters included--the baffle-grate style filters and also aluminum mesh, which I think is nice. I did not see many offering both of these. The only real complaint is the instructions are a bit weak, not that you really not much to figure out how to install this.
