IKTCH Upgrated 30"Under Cabinet Range Hood, 900 CFM Ducted Range Hood with 4 Speed Fan, Black Stainless Steel & Tempered Glass Range Hood 30 inch with Gesture Sensing&Touch Control Making life Smarter

I’ve had this kitchen fan for almost three months and love it!The fan is competitively quiet, the led lights are excellent and the wave of a hand turns on the lights and regulates how much of the four fan speeds one wants. It also comes with a remote control but I haven’t had occasion to use it.Just a really great product, easy to maintain and clean and well worth the price

This review is based on a my short term experience with the product. I’ll update later after using it for several months.This range vent was purchased to replace a failed over-the-range microwave oven. I downsized to a smaller counter top microwave and upgraded the stove venting.The delivery was fast and despite a damaged box the vent hood was intact. The seller has little control over the delivery. The product was well protected inside the large box. I opened the box and inventoried the contents and was surprised to find a remote control that wasn’t in the product description. I don’t see myself using a remote control to control the appliance, but it works.Before installing the vent hood all of the functions were tested and one of the puck lights was flickering. Support was contacted via e-mail, as their phone number just immediately goes to some music, and their response was quick the next day. They asked for a video of the problem and mailing information. A couple days later i received an e-mail that a replacement light was being mailed. After a couple more days the replacement light was delivered. And replacement of the light was an easy process that is in the included user booklet.During this time I was preparing the mounting location and ducting to work with this new vent hood. This process is the most work! This vent hood is the fourth appliance to go over my stove and none of them had the same mounting and ducting. So this new vent required modifications to the ductwork that beyond this review. I didn’t use the included screws and plastic drywall anchors because I prefer different screws and better anchors, but that hardware was included. Also, know that it may be necessary to add blocking, relocate ductwork, and either add or relocate the electrical box for power that should be located in the cabinet above the vent hood. And to be fair, these requirements would be necessary for most any over-the-range externally venting appliance. And for safety reasons I highly recommend finding someone with the appropriate skill sets if those tasks aren’t something that you do regularly; especially the electrical work. Also, a 900cfm exhaust fan will pull a lot of air from your home and a return air solution is necessary to prevent backdrafting.The vent hood was mounted by the time that the replacement LED puck light was delivered. So I popped in the new light, connected the wire and it’s fully functional. Here’s some pros and cons:- The 4K temperature color LED lights are bright and dimmable, and easily replaced- The two fans are very powerful with four settings and definitely better than the pathetic fan on my old over-the-range microwave- The noise level isn’t too bad on the lower settings, but is louder on the higher settings, which is to be expected. It’s still quieter than the old microwave stove vent that it replaced- The motion control is convenient and in this model is located on the top of the vent hood, so it might be difficult to control if your short or in a wheelchair, but there’s an included remote control to help.- The stainless steel vent filters are easy to remove and reinstall- The black glass front and top of the hood goes well with existing black appliances.- It has a long, attached electrical cord.- Customer support was quick to assist.Cons:- the metal enclosure is pretty thin, so proper mounting is critical to keep the metal from flexing and the vent from vibrating against the cabinet. This goes for any similar appliance. I raised the vent into place using a DIY lift solution of stacked wood, then screwed the enclosure onto the cabinet and wall framing that was created to support the vent.- The black glass is nice, but collects fingerprints, which is why the motion control is helpful- Cleaning the vent top will activate the fan and lights, but it’s easy to turn them off.- I wish that the brand name on the hood front was more subdued.- The IR remote control requires a line of sight to the top of the vent hood. So holding the remote underneath the hood won’t work.Summary: my initial impression is that this vent hood is priced well for the feature set, has two powerful fans, convenient motion control for when your hands are dirty, the stove top lighting is bright, yet dimmable, and customer support is responsive and e-mail based. I can’t comment on reliability at this point, but would recommend this appliance if the style suits your home.

Excellent range hood, very powerful and efficient in eliminating cooking odors and smoke. Cannot smell anything when a more than a few feet away from the stove. Very sleek and modern looking. The 2 bulbs supply a bright light that really lights up that area of the kitchen and I love how the lights gently fade away instead of immediately turning off, when they are switched off. Also has a variable timer so you can set it to shut off automatically after a certain number of minutes and then walk away. Yes, it is a little loud especially at levels 3 and 4, but it is bearable and not any worse than most other range hoods I’ve seen in operation. Level 2 is likely enough for most cooking anyway.Only two minor gripes, although detailed instructions were supplied on how to install it, which was quicker than I expected, there were no instructions on how to actually operate it, so had to figure its settings/features out. Secondly, the ‘gesture mode’ is far too sensitive and just opening the cabinet above it switches it on, as does when cleaning the unit near the gesture sensors. The settings also may change during operation if hands are accidently waved in close proximity. Unfortunately, don’t think this sensitivity can be toned down.Overall, very pleased with this purchase and would recommend it to others.

I had this fully installed a few hours after it arrived. The hardest part was removing my very, very old range hood. Also I installed a new electrical outlet inside the cabinet above the hood as there was none there. The new hood was a simple install. Pulled the plug wire through a new hole I drilled up into the bottom of thecabinet above, one person held the new hood in place while four screws were installed to hold the new hood in place tight up against the bottom of the cabinet above. Everything works. This is the newer model 2 with controls up on top of the hood. I love the ability to turn it on, adjust fan speed and turn it off by just moving a hand across in the air above the hood. Very strong draft through my duct to the outside. The two lights are nice and bright but can be dimmed down to any level or completely off. I have not used the remote control as I see no need for it. I like that the tempered black glass on the hood matches the tempered black glass on my stove top.

Great product, but manual leaves a lot to imagination. I have looked everywhere to see how to set the clock. Not in the manual or online . Seems to me they could have something in the instructions.
