The media could not be loaded. Update on 01/03/2020:A video of cooking is attached, showing that the smoke is effectively sucked out.Three of my friends and one of my neighbors were using FOTILE #7501, all of them recommended it, so I finally pulled the trigger on this new product #7505, which has more power levels (4 vs 3), higher CFM (600 vs 510 according to other website, not sure the accuracy), and fancy waving feature. After using it for two weeks with light cooking, here is my impression.Pros:1. Prompt customer services. Ordered on Nov 24, delivered on Dec 6 (should be earlier, not sure why UPS kept it at the facility near my house for two days), contacted customer services right after delivery, installed on Dec 7.2. Professional and quick installation. The contractor got it done within an hour: removed the old over-the-range microwave, installed some panels on the wall, cut the cabinet to fit the vent pipe, carried and installed the 70+ lbs range hood by himself, replaced and taped a portion of the vent pipe.3. Good suction power: The old over-the-range microwave (installed by previous home owner) was useless when cooking peppers, onions, chives, etc., and I had to close all the doors upstairs and opened the window wide, but it was still smelly hours after cooking. After installing this range hood, I particularly tried peppers with more corn oils, ingredients, and higher gas power. I could see the smoke and water vapor being sucked into the range, and no smell upstairs after cooking.Cons:1. Pricey. $1299 plus 6% tax minus 5% Discover cashback, final price around $1300. This is more expensive then other brands on Amazon, and the same brand in China with similar functions is also cheaper. In addition, the installation fee was $200, which was covered by FOTILE during the holiday promotion period, so I just needed to sign an installation completion form, and the contractor will get the money from FOTILE. However, I need to pay $30 for the materials (tape and a portion of vent pipe provided by the contractor, not FOTILE). That being said, when this holiday promotion period ends, you should expect to pay more than $200 for installation, but it varies depending on location and how difficult to install.2. The stainless steel oil cup is easy to get fingerprint on it. When I helped the contractor to peel off the cover from the oil cup during installation, my fingerprint was everywhere on it. So, remember to wear a glove.Tips:1. Although it is winter, I still recommend open the window when using it, if the window is near the range hood. No need to open it wide, just a very small gap that you hand can feel a small amount of air coming in. Because the suction power is high, the gap can balance the pressure (particularly for good insulation house) and help air flow when the greasy smoke is sucked out.Overall, taking into account the big improvement during cooking (compare to the useless microwave), the 5-year warranty, and my parents are coming with more cooking, I am happy with this product.

I have been using the FOTILE JQG7505 30” Under-Cabinet or Wall-Mount Range Hood for several years now and I am very happy with it. It is a powerful and quiet range hood that keeps my kitchen odor-free, no matter what I cook. As someone who values both functionality and aesthetics in kitchen appliances, this range hood exceeds my expectations on both fronts.The dual DC motor provides powerful suction, efficiently removing smoke, steam, and cooking odors from the kitchen. Even at the highest speed setting, the noise level is surprisingly low, allowing for a pleasant cooking environment. The four-speed touchscreen control is intuitive and responsive, offering precise control over the ventilation.One of the standout features is the slant vent design. This innovative design not only enhances the range hood’s efficiency by capturing more fumes but also adds a sleek, modern look to my kitchen. The hands-free on and off function is incredibly convenient, especially when my hands are occupied with cooking tasks.The onyx black glass finish is elegant and complements the modern aesthetic of my kitchen. It is also easy to clean and maintain, retaining its glossy appearance with minimal effort. Additionally, the option to install it as either an under-cabinet or wall-mount range hood offers versatility, accommodating various kitchen layouts.Overall, the FOTILE JQG7505 is a top-notch range hood that combines powerful performance, user-friendly features, and sophisticated design. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to upgrade their kitchen with a reliable and stylish ventilation solution.

The media could not be loaded. Buy it, it works! And its quiet!Likes: works exactly as stated, easy cleaning, very quiet on low and medium, strong performance on high and stir fry mode is a nice touch, although high seems to work just fine for me. Very bright white lights, touchless on/off is a super handy feature when you have dirty cooking hands.Dislikes: pricey, heavy, install instructions are just ok and a handy person can figure this out.I installed this unit on an exterior wall, my 6inch piping is not longer than 3 feet total and only 1 large diameter 90 degree bend to a very free flowing vent. Maybe that's why I dont need higher fans speeds when cooking. I usually just use low. Medium when ove self clean and when I've got steak searing on a hot cast iron pan.I've not had it long enough to get any drips in the oil catch pan. It does not snap in place it just slides and rests where it's at. Doesnt seem to move so not concerned.I installed this and the ductwork all by myself with some online reading. Even drilled the masonary wall hole.I came from a over the range (OTR) microwave that only recirculated the air. My ceiling and cabinets are greasy and sticky from this useless OTR.I also like the 2 minute cool down when done cooking. Nice touch! Very happy with this sleek, almost pro level, modern design and functional range hood.
