Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Bathroom exhaust fans are incredibly quiet. Says a lot for the durability of braun fans. I am very sensitive to noise and have the bathroom fans always wired to the lights so the showers can be hot boxed.

this is close to imperceptible. As advertised, this vent is very quiet. But wow is it so much quieter than the old one.

It is far superior, and the mildew issue is almost under control now! It is just as good as advertised! Good product from broan- nutone.



Cons

The housing has some parts (for nailing) and screws coming out of the box that make it impossible to pass it through the opening in the ceiling. Problem is noise level-supposed to be 0.

Trouble with installation-- because there was no instructions. It took too much time to install for me to take down and return. Also the grill is much larger than the it should be.

Quality


Works great another broan quality exhaust fan


For ease of install its wired into the same power as light and i dont mind that it comes on at the same time, with it being so quiet


The hardware supporting the motor/fan was permanently mounted and locked.


The electrician said it was due to being incorrectly attached to the duct and the poor fitting caused stress on the motor.

Price


I bought a factory refurb for a fraction of the regular price and have 0 regrets.


Well worth the money so if you need one stop searching and buy it now


3 sones, and are quite expensive for what they are.


Great value on the previously opened, but verified product!

Packaging/appearance


No biggie, it still looks cool and my guests (it's in in our guest bath upstairs) all have given high compliments and basically...  Read More


It looked like the package had been open but all parts were there and everything was indistinguishable from new.


The electrician looked at the three boxes of fans and commented that i’d chosen one of the best available.


For these reasons, i felt it important to seal the box housing.

Competitiveness


Big improvement over the original braun, which is a less expensive alternative.


There are other brands where the hole opening only needs to be as big as the unit.


Make sure you look at the sound rating of others before you buy to compare.
