Cook for a living
7/22/2026
The box does not include all the parts needed if you are using round ductwork. Added cost around $60. The damper is cheap and makes noise when unit is running. Because the seams of the unit are not sealed properly the grease over time will drip over you stove. Overall a cheap solution for a kitchen exhaust system.

It was an upgrade and really adds a lot to the look. Also better ventilated & easy to clean. Very sharp overall
Came with a small dent but Whirlpool replaced easily

Looks great, quiet, but specified depth is wrong

It looks sleek, it's quiet, but my complaint is that I was specifically looking for a hood that didn't stick out too much, I purchased this one because it was supposed to be 18" 5/8 deep and it turns out it isn't. It's a bit over 20" deep. Specs are wrong and once it's sold, it's not refundable. Fun!

Bought and installed this unit four months ago at full price. After cleaning the filters, one of the footing tabs broke off, I am unable to find the correct size to replace. Now I understand why it's on sale.

Il est bien difficile d'obtenir des informations pratiques sur le produit comme le type d'Ãvacuation. Est-ce derrière ou par le dessus ou les les deux?

I installed the unit about a year ago and the lights burned out already. Turns out you can't just replace the bulb with a normal bulb. They come in the casing and are specially made by Whirlpool. Each bulb is $71.00! It appears simply replacing the bulb requires a service call. The unit is also quite a bit noisier than expected. Would not recommend.

Will not fit IKEA if using non vented. Not 1 Star

I bought this from Best Buy in November 21 for this project.(RETURN POLICY 15 DAYS) Trying to install in an IKEA kitchen. American cabinets have a void in the bottom when the hood is installed. IKEA does not have avoid. no recirculation. 15" from the back covers the vent plate totally. Working on finding installation data, no help from Whirlpool.

I replaced my builder grade hood with this one and am in love. It has 3 speeds which is very nice and it looks more high end. I love it

I bought this unit more for the lights than for the fan. The lights were great, but within 6 months they dimmed and stopped working. The repair guy came and said he needed to order parts. Three months later he came back only to find he ordered the wrong part. I'm not sure if that is really the case or if the unit is a complete dud. It has been 2 months now and I haven't heard from him. When I contacted whirlpool I got the run around. They couldn't find my work order, the repair guy didn't update the records. This is ridiculous. I know it is not an expensive unit, but my builder grade fan that this one replaced was working fine after 28 years. I only replaced it because I wanted stainless steel. I am so disappointed with Whirlpool and this product. ZERO STARS it is a piece of junk.

Range Hood looks nice when installed. The LED light are nice. The reason for a range hood is to draft smoke and steam away from the rangetop. The design of this hood puts the suction of the fan only over the left hand side. It has barely adequate draft from the left side, and there is no draft from the right. It is able to hold a single piece of toilet paper up on the left side... and it can't hold that up on the right side. An abysmal design. I'm done with Whirlpool... it is fitting their range hood can't suck up a piece of toilet paper on the right hand side, because their design is pure @rap!

For the price it was okay. It's simple and looks great. However, the built-in fan is positioned horribly. There won't be much suction on the right side even if you blast it on high. I would have paid extra for something better.

I cook quite a lot and have had all kinds of range hoods, from the cheap ones under a microwave all the way up to professional ones. This one is a piece of junk, and I guess we get what we pay for. The price is great but the product can`t even suck vapor from boiling water, it`s super weak. To make it even worse, the fan is positioned on top of the left side only, so the right side is 0% suction power, and the left side is probably 20% since it`s very weak. It also sounds like a gigantic airplane turbine in your kitchen when on max speed (which is the one I`m using when measuring its weakness.)
I called whirlpool and they say there`s nothing they can do about it, that I could try and sell on ebay then buy a different one. Couldn`t care less about my feedback as a customer. So yeah, I`m buying a different brand.

I have this non-working range hood in my kitchen for more than 2 months. After waiting for 10 days for the technician to come, he came to explain that the motor need to be replaced. He ordered a new motor and I waited for another two weeks. The technician called me to say that he received the wrong part.
He placed an order for the part again and it has been 31 days and still counting. More than 2 months and this item. The carbon filter for this range hood is hard to find and Whirlpool will direct you to parts retailer who charge around $100 for the carbon filter.
Customer service is of no help after mulitple calls they say you have to wait until the part come and the technician will call you to confirm when it will be fixed. So far he didn't call back and he is not replying to my text messages and calls.

I wanted QUIET.. I got it. This unit is small in front exposure with good sized large vent screens that are part of the visual appeal unlike, most The light is simple on off. VERY nice leds; with great lighting of the area. The fans has 3 levels with good pulling power on high and nice and quiet on low. The fan pull is mostly on the left side, noticeably, but all of them are like that. I'd give it an EXCELLENT rating if not for the installation instructions which, after the measurements for the holes are done, toss it aside and just have a helper hold it up while your screw it to the cabinet above. The "hangers" simply do not work and the 2 holes they instruct you to use to fix it to the SIDES of the cabinet simply do not reach, fit, or work in that manner at all. The manual writer never installed this thing..
