In the midst of the Great Depression, two aggressive young men emerged with two new products that would make major contributions to the housing industry. In 1932, Henry Broan developed and manufactured a kitchen fan called the Motordor Fan that provided quiet and efficient kitchen ventilation. His creation launched what is today known as Broan-NuTone LLC. Four years later, in 1936, J. Ralph Corbett developed a melodious door chime replacing the obnoxious door buzzer of the time. His development launched what is today known as NuTone, Inc.
Today, Broan-NuTone LLC is headquartered in Hartford, Wis. and employs more than 3,200 people in eight countries on three continents. It is North America's largest producer of residential ventilation products such as range hoods, ventilation fans and indoor air quality products and also holds major market positions in chimes, central vacuums, intercom systems, medicine cabinets, built-in electric heaters, whole-house fans, attic ventilators, paddle fans, ironing centers, trash compactors and speakers.
True professional style and performance has never been easier to bring home.
Selecting the right professional style range hood just became easier. Broan introduces the E60000 range hoods, in 10" under-cabinet and 18" wall-mount versions. These new models come with integrated internal blowers or dedicated external blower capability. Styling is fresh and modern, yet designed to easily complement popular pro-style cooking products. Both embody professional features such as powerful blowers, baffle filters, brilliant halogen lighting and variable speed controls. And while you won't see this feature it is hard to miss the quiet operation - two Sones or less at normal speed. To carry the professional theme even further, select the optional stainless steel backsplash with adjustable shelving. When you want professional style and performance, trust Broan to cover every detail.

Rated 4 out of 5 by lu Looks & works great
This wasn't my first choice for our newly designed kitchen but I have to say it looks great. Pulls everything out of the air more efficiently than any other vent hood I've ever had. It's a bit louder than I expected but not a problem. Did pay more than I wanted to but couldn't find another decent vent hood any cheaper.

Rated 5 out of 5 by pameypoo It works great
I bought this range hood to replace a new one that did not work good enough. When I stir fried on my Bluestar Gas Stove the whole house filled up with smoke and grease even though my hood was on high. I knew I needed something way more powerful. So I purchased this Broan just hoping it would work better. I was also hoping it would work without the need for hearing protectors. To my surprise it works great. I can stir fry on the front burner and it sucks up all the smoke. It's loud, but not as bad as the one that I replaced. With the variable control I can turn it down to just a quiet whisper.
