Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Range Hood

This hood is a little loud but works great on pulling smoke out of the kitchen!

I Love it™€¦.with some caveats

SueB68 1/25/2026

Very happy with this range hood itself. My tissue is that we called approx 30 companies before we found someone who would install it for us. Needs an HVAC technician. We also needed to increase the fresh air intake into our house. Once we got it installed the front panel stopped working 4 weeks after it was installed. Because it took so long to find someone to install it the warranty was over. As I said the hood itself is great ( our blower mother is in the attic so we actually don™€™t find it loud). But make sure you know how your going to get it installed before you buy it.

Powerful Hood

Danae 5/19/2025

This vent hood is powerful and works wonderfully with my 36™€ KitchenAid commercial range. The lights are nice and bright. The speed settings are easy to use with a button push for each speed. My last hood required you to cycle through each speed. This has 10™€ ductwork as well where my last only had 8™€. I haven™€™t used the infrared food warmer, yet.

Noisy

Xoxoxoxo 5/7/2025

I despise when the hood fan cuts in automatically. It really loud. I have you shout for anyone in the room to hear me. And you cannot shut it off until it™€™s full 5 min cycle is complete. So annoying. Don™€™t buy this. I™€™m searching for an override for this annoying feature but no luck.

Good hood, terrible filter design

Daniel frustrated 11/11/2024

The hood itself works well. HOWEVER - removing and replacing the baffle filters is nearly impossible. The instructions don't help, and good luck finding a video to guide you. It's not at all clear from the diagrams exactly how the filters are supposed to sit in the hood, as you seemingly need to defy the laws of physics to fit the filter into the tracks. Please help, Kitchenaid!

Lights flicker

n23132 7/25/2024

Lights flicker. Kitchenaid says this is normal? Looks nice and is fairly quiet. It's brand new - just installed a couple of weeks ago. The lights flicker, so we had a service company look at it. They called Kitchenaid customer service and were told that this is normal. Lights on a brand new appliance should not flicker - ever. Telling us this is normal is like saying that it's defective on purpose. For this price, it's really not acceptable to have a defect built it. There are plenty of other hoods out there that work properly.

Filter hard to insert

Bianca123 12/11/2023

I've had this hood for 2 years and it works ok. Builds up grease fairly easily, which isn't a problem because it's easy enough to clean. The issue is to put the filters back on. I dread this every time. It is cumbersome, I can never do it right. My husband sometimes gets it on with brute force. We've looked a the instructions many times but can't figure out an easy way to make put it back in. Once it's in, it fits like a glove. Wish this part was easier.

Commercial Range Hood

LaliD 11/6/2023

Paired this baby up with the 36" Kitchenaid Freestanding Commercial Range, in blue. What a dynamic duo!!! Very pleased with our choice. In fact the entire kitchen represents the beauty and quality of Kitchenaid products, both large & small appliances, even the accessories. Thank you Kitchenaid, quality you can count on!

I thought I was buying the best

Live and learn 7/19/2022

My hood came without a motor! No where on the website did it instruct me to order a separate motor. The hood was expensive and professional, but the motor was an additonal $900. The upper extension is not the prettiest as it has a scratch line where the extension adjusts for varying ceiling height. I bought a pot filler and had to return it because it would not fit under the hood in the space allotted. I wish the site would have indicated what to do for regular ceiling heights.
