WRH608IS

Hi I am looking for a replacement Rangehood for my house, I currently have a Westinghouse WRH608IS installed which has been nothing but trouble since the day it was installed. The issue we have had is that the slider catches and sticks in random spots which then means we can't use the fan properly as the speed switches don't release.
What models can I buy to replace this one?

WRH608IS

Bought Westinghouse WRH608IS Retractable Rangehood, how come on almost all website image of the product, it has a Westinghouse logo on the right colour, the actual product we received no where has the word Westinghouse on it. Why??? Are we getting the right actual product?

Mine has the Westinghouse logo on the front right side. Perhaps it was left off as sometimes it is re-branded for another manufacturer. Or it was an error on the part of the manufacturer, so I would take this up with the dealer who sold it to you if it is really an issue for you.

Guess what!? Apparently they are going generic, so their rangehood can be used with various other branded appliances. So here we thought we are buying a whole set, and will look so nice with the logos on display. NUP.

WRH608IS

i have just purchased a Westinghouse range hood. Now I have discovered I should buy a vent kit For $89.00. What advantage is it to have two charcoal filters fitted?

I think that would depend on what you cook. I have the regular metal mesh ones and the are easy to clean though you have to be careful of the metal edges. Use some bicarbonate of soda and it dissolves any grease build up easily.The charcoal ones might be good if you sear salmon and such to take more of the smell out that can sometimes overwhelm the metal ones. Mine is vented to the outside but even then some of the smell can linger. Hope that helps.
