Bumping thread.

Highly rated on Amazon, what say the GW folks? The price is only $300.

Don't know anything about Z Line. Another value brand is XtremeAir. It's a chinese import, but appears to be well built, good filter arrangements, and high CFM specs.

Just installed a Zline purchased from Amazon. Judging by the copious amounts of smoke and grease that still hang around my kitchen, the CFMs are waaaaaay lower than advertised, and it is quite loud at the highest speed. I will say, however, that it looks great. But if you want a vent hood that actually works well, I would recommend jumping to a slightly higher priced and more reliable brand. Hth.

Hope you went with another brand! Even though this is old, maybe the information will help someone else. I purchased mine from Home Depot. Mine is less than two years old and the lights died. When I contacted customer service (4 emails, only one response) and then called (routed around their system) I finally did online chat and got a hold of someone. The person knew immediately what my issue was, i.e. it's a known issue and proceeded to mail me the parts to repair it myself. I did contortions on top of my range to try to swap out the parts, and they still don't work. Their customer service is a joke. They expect you to watch their videos and figure out what to do. I contacted them again to try to get a reference to a repair person, and they have none and basically said "I can't help you and good luck." SKIP IT. BUY SOMETHING ELSE.
