Range Hood, Broan 61000 Series anyone?

18 years ago

I am considering the 30 Inch, Stainless Steel, Broan Elite 61000 Series (Rangemaster® Ballista), Model 613004 hood for our kitchen.

Does anyone have any knowledge of what to look for in a good range hood? I'm clueless but good suction and quite are on my want list.

I've included the specs from the Broan website for review:

 Beautiful stainless steel construction in a wall mounted design.

 Seamless corners for easy cleaning.

 Concealed three-speed slide control.

 Two 20-watt halogen lights (included).

 Ducted/non-ducted telescopic flues fit 8 to 9 ceilings.

 Convertible to ducted or non-ducted operation.* (Excludes 48" model)

 Easily removable, dishwasher safe, stainless steel grease filters.

 Optional flue extension for up to 10' ceilings.


With an enduring stainless steel design, the Ballista combines the flawless look of Italian style with easy to clean surfaces and performance that any gourmet would love. Three-speed control allows you to select the setting appropriate for your cooking conditions and two 20-watt halogen lights illuminate the work area.

p.s. we've already had a vent installed so this will be a vented unit.
