36'' Wall-Mount, 3-Speed Canopy Hood

A premium feature of this 36-inch canopy hood is a perimeter ventilation system. This promotes efficiency by pulling air from the edges of the hood and allows it to handle up to a 65K total output with a 400 CFM motor. The perimeter design also allows the hood to operate quietly, even at higher speeds.

Customer Reviews

Rated 1 out of 5 by Zaf05 from Product not reliable The nice looking hood was installed as an upgrade in a new Toll Brothers home. Within 6-7 weeks of moving in the house the Blower motor broke down and needs to be replaced. Calls to Kitchen Aid help desk has long 30+ min wait times. On a positive note the customer service reps are very polite and helpful. However, Kitchen Aid has only one service provider in the area and their technician insists that the hood has to be uninstalled before they can replace the motor. It is a huge unexpected mess. We regret buying the product and to make matters worse all our other appliances are whirlpool and the cook top has also broken down within the short use period.

Rated 5 out of 5 by BayouHouse from Whisper-quiet, bright lights, effective Recently purchased this for installation in new construction and we are very pleased with the product. I am thoroughly impressed with the performance I have seen. The lights are the best I have seen on such hoods and provide a good temperature of light for cooking. Even on its highest setting the fan is quiet enough that you can have a low conversation when standing directly in front of it. From across a quiet room it is hardly noticeable. The buttons are very easy to operate. No cons to report.

Rated 5 out of 5 by timamiller from Beautiful!! We purchased this as part of a complete kitchen remodel. The LED lighting is excellent and completly illuminates the gas cooktop. The fan is really quiet and only noticable (noise wise) on the highest speed. Low speed is nearly silent and medium is barely noticable (decibel level wise). My wife loves it . . . so that means I love it :-)

Rated 5 out of 5 by Tom from Love my new hood Great LED lighting that really helps you see your cooking area. Low speed is super quiet, high speed has a lot of draw.

Rated 3 out of 5 by MatthewE from Simple but needs update Works fine, but buttons need to be updated. You have to push power button and the speed button you want rather than just pushing one button to start it. the buttons feel a little cheap, touch screen like the oven would be much better. Also, quality control is lacking. Had to order 3 before getting one with no damage.

Rated 3 out of 5 by JillBA from Damper Bangs When Breezy If your hood is being used in an open concept home beware that the damper bangs when the wind picks up a little, and interferes with listening to the TV or radio. Bang- bang- bang bang- Kitchenaid said it’s not installed properly, Lowe’s says it is. Because the damper is designed to open when the fan is turned on and it doesn’t have a separate electronic or mechanical control (like your fireplace damper), I tend to think it’s a design issue. The damper has to be light enough to open when the fan is turned on from below, and heavy enough to stay closed when a breeze blows by from above. OR Kitchenaid could have supplied a material to prevent the two metals- the damper and the duct- from hitting each other. Some sort of a cushion seal. Based on the number of complaints on the web, I suspect Kitchenaid is well aware of the issue. I also think it’s not an installation issue because according to the one woman I spoke with there are only two screws used to assemble the damper.
