For this money you can't go wrong!

For this kind of money you can't go wrong! Installation was a little tricky but mostly due to the design of our cabinet. The hood is quiet and looks good. It might not be as powerful as a more expensive range hood, but I was frying sea bass the other day and you could smell it not far from the stove! I'm sold!

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

This range hood is unsafe, nearly burned my house down. DO NOT BUY

I purchased this range hood and after installation the range hood turned on for a few minutes and then turned off by itself. Revain was great and sent me a replacement, I had to ask an electrician to come and install a new one. He checked the old one when it was installed and then removed it and laid it on the carpet. The device was so hot it burned the carpet it was standing on. The electrician said I was lucky the hood panel didn't catch fire and the house didn't burn down. I called the…

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • I will add later

Works for us so far

I wanted to contact another reviewer, Scott. Hey Scott, after reading your review we did what you said and tested it right on the ground. It worked fine. But after installation, like yours, the low key didn't work. With the help of our installer we have just discovered that the small slider in the paddle plugs needs a little tightening with needle nose pliers to make them tighter. This is similar to yours. If you do this you can do it yourself by turning off the power by removing the part you…

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Great exhaust fan, but there's one thing.

The fan evenly distributes the air to all the filters and does so at a very acceptable noise level (much quieter than our Broan 420). Low is great for heat dissipation when using the stove or cooking, medium for multiple burners, and high when you screw it up real: it moves an incredible amount of air. Bright LEDs, almost fluorescent. If you have the space, I recommend adding a 3" spot or two per dimmer for extra backlighting and to illuminate your hob when it's idle. Installation is not…

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

Initial Issues / Corrected Warranty

November 7, 2020 - Updated Rating - Updated to 5 Stars. The company has a customer service department in California that answers the phone within 2 rings every time I call. I spoke to Ron for several minutes, who was about to send a technician to fix my hood. He spoke to an engineer who explained that my issues could cause the hood to fail and they sent a full replacement overnight. Ron inspected the unit himself prior to shipment. I will install on Monday. It draws a lot of air, which is what…

Pros
  • Best in Niche

  • Not Best

Excellent performance good performance overall solid value

I had to replace a very cheap and very old over range board. I spent a lot of time researching and finding an insert that had quality but was NOT in the $500-$1000 range. I shopped on every major internet site for home appliances and anything decent was expensive. I found the Kobe brand and looked at several models here on Revain. I wanted a larger 750 CFM+ Kobe insert, but my application didn't have the breadth for it. I chose this model and it worked great. This device is built really well…

Pros
  • Best

  • Ok

Great hood, classy look

We bought this hood to replace a microwave we have installed on the hob and have been using it for about a month. We already had an outlet from a previous microwave so plugging it in wasn't a problem. We tested it before installing it and everything worked fine. We manufacture a custom hood to surround the hood. One thing we didn't imagine prior to our purchase was what the underside of the hood would look like when placed on the stove. The finish of the Kobe hood looks like a professional…
