They should last longer. Regularly blow light bulbs. 2nd one shorted out behind the switches causing sparks & small but brief flame. Lucky I have earth leakage circuit breakers. Costs an extra $100 to get electrician to fit on top of replacement costs each time. Have to consider another brand & possibly more expensive/better quality.

I've recently bought this range hood and had it installed in an old chimney which used to have a solid fueled stove or ancient origin. So this range hood so far has worked well exhausting the cooking smells out of the kitchen and up the chimney to the atmosphere.
The two filters are easy to remove and reinstall.
I checked the tightness of the two screw thread light bulbs as it says they can come loose in transit and one was loose. It even says in the instruction manual to check the tightness of the bulbs and not to operate the lighting featu...

1 Star ... poor service. Bought a fixed rangehood from good guys...but was in a box for 2 months before installed in a brand new kitchen. Bulb was not working therefore rang up support but was told to fix it myself. Hold on.....so now i have to call up westinghouse spare parts and pay for something they didn't ship out as working? I bought a cheap CHEF brand for a different property and same thing of a bulb wasn't working and the service was 5 stars! as they sent out a technician to come out to fix it....unfortunately the first time they came o...
Read moreut with the wrong bulb therefore they had to come out again. If a cheap brand can do it why cant Westinghouse as a "premium brand" (the support lady said) cant provide a simple support ...maybe send me out the light bulb to fix it instead of me purchasing it from them. I guess i will never purchase anything Westinghouse or Electrolux and rest assured NO ONE around me will ever purchase any of your brands. 1 bad experience will spread to 20. Maybe as a "premium brand" you can provide "premium service" By the way i waited 30mins for the support line and basically was shut down by the support person. Few years back to purchase whitegoods you will not touch LG or a cheaper korean or chinese brand. Right now tables have turned as product and service provided by these brands are far superior.

This is our second one of these in 3yrs, same problem, fan gets full of oil from use and stops working. First one we had it was in the house we bought and was new, stopped working after 1yr, replaced it with another one and within 6mths had the service guy coming out to get it going again. His comment was " this is a common problem" he showed me how to drain the oil from the fan so it can start again. Now here's the kicker, we don't cook with a lot of fat, we always keep the filters clean, and the same problem has happened to both, hence "Reall...
Read morey bad design" will not buy again as it is a total waste of money on a poorly designed hood fan that should be able to cope with below average daily domestic use without a service call to fix a pretty obvious fault - filters are not effective at all in catching oil from cooking!!Find out how Westinghouse WRJ600US compares to other Range Hoods

Looks good with the stainless steel finish. Simple installation in the space left by a previous Westinghouse range hood (screw holes did not line up - but not a problem. Was 10mm deeper so it came below the top of the wall tiling. Again not a big issue. Three speeds, all reasonably low noise. Light has two globes so illuminates quite well. They should include the first set of Carbon filters - maybe even if Westinghouse were to plainly mark that that product is for recirculating conditions and charge the few extra bucks for the included filters???

I purchased this rangehood recently and it is ok I paid only $130.00 on special. The only thing I was disappointed is that the recirculated style needs a carbon filter as the instructions say it is recommended. It would have been ideal to purchase from the store as an upsell. Why dont they ask you if you will be ducted or recircultaed. Can someone tell me where they purchased the carbon filter and how easy is it to install, do you need to remove any parts. etc...Tks

Had it about 6 mths. No problems to report. Nothing special. It does what you would expect a range hood to do.
