Air King DS1308 Review: 30-Inch Designer Series Under Cabinet Range Hood
For an affordable under cabinet range hood, this Air King 30-inch model has a pleasant stainless steel design and adequate 200 CFM ventilation. The range hood accepts lights up to 60 watts and has 2 brightness settings (bulb not included). We didn’t find the installation instructions to be terribly difficult, although some consumers reported problems getting the duct to fit properly. The rotary speed control gives you the ultimate control over the fan speed. Compared to some other models, it runs relatively quietly. For the quality it provides at a low price of $84.30, this range hood offers a great value.
