**★ — HU-667025052, Aug. 2026**

> Do not buy from Yale Appliance!!! We paid, in full, a range hood which included installation two months ago and we are now on two failed installations. You can’t speak  to anyone in management to address the issue- they just push you along to another department. I asked for a full refund and I still am waiting on a response. To this day, we still are getting the runaround. We decided to go with Yale Appliance instead of the big box store thinking we would receive a professional experience but unfortunately we received just the opposite. Buyer beware!!

## Community Q&A

**Q: Need advice on kitchen appliances-** *(in Design Dilemma)*

Hi-I need some advice on what 60" range we should consider. Wolf, Viking, Thermador..other? Such a huge investment and seeing such mixed opinions on all of them. Thank you-

A: Lisa, it really depends on how you like to cook. 
We go over the features and differences of  Wolf, Thermador, and Viking 60" ranges here:
Best 60" Professional Gas Ranges 
Hope this helps!

**Q: What is the backsplash?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Not sure about the exact name of the tile but all our tile was done by Beth at Snug Harbor Tile!

**Q: What are your recommendations about the 30 inch Thermador gas range?** *(in Photo Questions)*

I would like to purchase this item and want to know if anyone has this product and their likes and dislikes.  This is the most attractive gas stove I have seen thus far.

A: Great range.....

**Q: Type of kitchen appliances** *(in Design Dilemma)*

We are prepping our 14year old home for sale. What brand and finish are buyers wanting these days? Any specifics would be appreciated. We're talking refrig, dishwasher, cook top and double wall ovens.

A: Depends:  Customers want Sub-Zero, Wolf, Thermador and Miele, but that is expensive.  Look at Bosch.  Its inexpensive and very clean looking.  People also like the name

**Q: What are the counter top materials? Thank you!** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: I love this kitchen

**Q: Need help in selecting a Chimney range hood** *(in Design Dilemma)*

I am putting in a new kitchen with a chimney range hood and not sure which hood would look best; stainless steel or the glass canopy.  I like the glass however I think glass looks best in a modern kitchen.  Is this true?  My kitchen will be traditional and the cabinets are maple in a medium color.  Do not want to ruin the look with the wrong hood. Please adivse.

A: Hi there,

A glass chimney hood does provide a nice look however from a functionality standpoint you want to consider how often you cook and what type of cooking surface you are venting.

For those who cook often you will want a hood with a large amount of capture area with enough power to properly remove cooking odors and grease.

Many people choose a glass hood for the aesthetic rather than the function. A glass hood will have a smaller capture area than other chimney or canopy-style hoods. If you cook often you might find that it is more difficult to keep the glass looking clean.

Keep in mind that if you are placing your hood over a gas cooking surface, gas generates more residual heat and grease than electric or induction cooking surfaces. Even if you are venting right outside make sure to choose a hood with enough power and capture area to properly vent your kitchen.
