Pros and cons

What we liked

  • Moves 300 CFM and can be ducted outside rather than recirculating
  • Standard 30-inch cutout drops into most existing cabinet openings
  • Sensor cooking stops on humidity rather than a fixed timer

What we didn’t

  • Recirculating mode, which most installs end up using, vents heat back into the room
  • Turntable limits how large a dish will fit

Our review

An over-the-range microwave is a range hood that happens to reheat things, and most of them vent badly. This one moves 300 CFM and can be ducted outside rather than recirculating, which is the difference between removing steam and moving it around. The standard 30-inch cutout drops into most existing openings without touching the cabinets.

If your kitchen has no duct run, you end up in recirculating mode like everyone else, pushing heat back into the room through a charcoal filter. The turntable also limits dish size, so a large casserole will not spin.
