Our Kobe 42" is sitting in the garage, so I can't tell you how it works.:) We paid $1500 from Standards of Excellence. It has 900 cfms, and had the slimmest profile of any I found. This was important to us, as we are replacing a peninsula/upper cabs with an island, and didn't want another view blocker. We are putting it above a Thermador 36" duel fuel range. It comes highly recommended, and I believe is an excellent value for the money. With the BTUs the Thermador Space Ship generates, our choices were somewhat limited. I was happy that Kobe had a product that would work. We "test drove" one a couple of years ago during a thwarted attempt at a kitchen remodel, and were very impressed with many of the features.
