It really is a very good rangehood. It was easy to install, and although it might be considered a little bit noisy at higher CPM levels, it does the job effectively, and the low and middle speeds are reasonable. At 600 CFM I imagine it to be somewhat noisy, especially as the blowers are made of metal (instead of plastic). It is easy to keep clean, and although I was scepticle about the filters ability catch grease, so far it seems to be working well. I thoroughly recommend the rangehood. Oh, and it looks great!
