The media could not be loaded. It may be loud in the video but while you’re cooking with food frying, tv on, kids talking you hardly hear it . I put it on right before I heat up the food leave it on for about 20 minutes after I’m done cleaning then shut it off - the smell of the food no longer travels to the bedrooms or the rest of the house truly filters the smell doesn’t go on my curtains or my hair doesn’t smell like food I’m impressed- I have it now for 2 months and sent this to all my friends and family that don’t have an overhead exhaust.

The media could not be loaded. Great suction, just the smell still comes out

On high, it sucks up most of the bacon smoke from the fryer. Definitely makes a difference.

I purchased this fan with high hopes, but I am extremely disappointed with the lack of support for key accessories, specifically the polymer filter and carbon filter. These filters are crucial to the fan's air purification function, but the company has stopped selling them separately. Without these two filters, the fan does little more than blow air, which defeats the purpose of why I bought it in the first place.What's worse is the only way to get the carbon filter is through a bundle that includes an extra air purification piece I don’t need. This is an unnecessary expense for customers who just want replacement filters, not additional components.Now, a few months after I first bought it, I’ve discovered there are no longer any accessories available to make this fan work as it should. I feel completely stuck with it and can't help but feel desperate and betrayed. If I had known this upfront, I would never have made the purchase. Save your money and look elsewhere unless you enjoy paying for things you don’t need.

The base melts with its plastic construction. I wish it has a stainless steel base. Because it needs to get close to the pan and sometimes the pan would kiss the base. Then the base melts easily. Otherwise, it’s a good tool in a small kitchen.

En mi vivienda, la cocina no tiene campana extractora, por lo que al freir o cocinar era problema los vapores por que son respirados y pueden ser perjudiciales para el que cocina; su especificación dice "campana" pero no lo es un ventilador extractor el aire que pasa por él es filtrado y elimina malos olores por tener filtro de carbon; CIARRA ofrece una excelente solución para la cocina como este tipo de extractor; su eficiencia depende de lo cerca que esté de lo que se cocine, yo lo instalé muy cerca de la cocina (ver imagen)

its a small, slightly noisy unit, but it actually seems to work as well or even better than the downdraft exhaust on my range. It did not appear to 'catch' and oil in the catch container, but it certainly sucked the steam/etc from frying into the unit, and was easy to take the filters out and clean after.

So far so good. I like the style. The look. Not too loud. Easy to operate.
