Allure III Series 30 in. Convertible Range Hood in Stainless Steel

The Allure III line of range hoods feature quiet blowers, exceptional ventilation performance and bright lighting of work surfaces. They are 50% quieter than the average range hood. The design features a four speed electronic control with delayed "off" and filter reminder, smooth surfaces, a fully enclosed DuPont Teflon non-stick underside and 2 aluminum professional-style dishwasher-safe filters that provide the easiest clean-up of any range hood. The 3 level dual halogen light system (bulbs not included) is designed to flood your cooking surface with a bright light, the low light setting provides the perfect night light. The centrifugal blower system eliminates smoke and moisture more quietly and effectively than the average hood or over-the-range microwave. Advance Heat Sentry detects excessive heat and adjusts hood speed for proper ventilation. Allure simply performs better than any other hood.

The lights light up the range very well and can be dimmed. The fan is almost silent at the lowest speed, which still moves quite a bit of air. It gives us an exhaust fan at times we wouldn't otherwise use a fan due to the noise level. The automatic feature hasn't kicked in yet, so we don't know about that.

We normally make food with a lot of oily smoke and smells (such as high temp grill and fry), so when we shopped around we cared more about the air flow. After we got this, I have find the speed 3 is most efficient regarding the flow and sound. Boost mode is very noisy with very high air flow and we seldom to use that. I think speed 1 and 2 are too quiet for us but could be efficient enough for you. Surface is smooth and easy to clean after each cook. The light is very bright and focus right about the size of your cooking pan. The only thing I am not happy is the duct size of 7". I tried to find this size in the homedepot store and can not find it! The store has either 6" (which is most common) or 8"! In end I have to get the 8" one and wrap with heat duct tape to seal it!
Yes, I recommend this product.

Today I installed the NuTone Allure III and with some exceptions below, we love it. Cannot hear it on 1, a bit louder on 2, and so on. The boost is probably for when you burn something. I am still working on the outside venting. Had to go horizontal as I did not want to tackle a roof vent, and we had to sacrifice the top shelves in two cabinets. Small price to pay.
This unit hangs from 4 screws. If your cabinets have a recessed bottom, you have to add a shim on both sides. If your cabinets have partical board shelves, as most do, this can be a challenge. Location of the screws is CRITICAL. After you get them in, and the unit up on them, getting them tight is also a challenge as they are not easy to reach. Design fault here that NuTone should address. This ended up taking over 6 hours.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Our NuTone Allure lll has been installed and vents to the outside. We still can't believe you can not even tell it is on when it's on # 1, # 2 is not bad, I can still hear the tv when using # 2 and 3 is what most fans sound like on #1. I have never had to use #3 and the 4th button is B for the max and is very loud and that is for major smoking I guess. The lights can be bright or lowered. We did a lot of research before we bought this hood and it sounded too good to be true but everything that was said about it right. It is unbelieveable and well worth the money. It will detect excessive heat and adjust the setting by it's self. It also has a delay button that lets it run for a little while after cooking and then turns its self off. We are passing the word about the wonderful Allure lll. This is one of the best purchases we have ever made. I will say if you are going to spend the money to get this fan vent it to the out side of the house, I don't think any exhaust fan would be any good if you don't do that.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Very nice. Very quiet on the lower speeds. Seems to move a lot of air even on the lower speeds. The highest speed seems like something you would use infrequently as for some thing burnt on the stove. The high speed is powerful and fairly loud. I thought it seemed like the hood vibrated a lot when on the highest speed. It is a nice looking range hood as well.
Yes, I recommend this product.
