Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Poor product. Poor customer service. Not honoring the warranty.

Danniej 6/11/2024

This range came in my new home and broke within a couple months. It makes a loud clanging noise when you turn it on. It sounds like something is disconnected. Being under warranty, I contacted Frigidaire in March. Even though they determined it needed to be replaced at that time, 3 months later it still hasn't been replaced or resolved. Every time I call, I get told "the back office" is working on it and a promise I'll be contacted within 48 hours. This has not happened in 3 months.

Faulty Buttons

Home Owner 1999 3/24/2024

The buttons have all popped off into the vent hood. I cannot open the hood to retrieve them, nor are they available to purchase. We are stuck with a vent that cannot be turned on.

Not recommend it at all

customer909 4/4/2023

Never purchase the product. No matter how much it cost you, the consumed parts are extremely expensive. For example, the filter with similar materials at Amazon is around $10, but they sell more than $100. The tricky thing is that the size of their filter is unique and you could not find any other same size from elsewhere. It ends up that you have to spend 10 times more than the regular price to purchase a filter if you want to continue using the hood. Isn't it ridiculous????

All Buttons GONE!

saraiza 2/25/2023

It started with one button that slung out at my wife's face while she was cooking. This product is a safety hazard. Then a second button did the same. One of the buttons eventually got pushed in, and we had to start using the other loose button to enable other fan speeds. Eventually they all got pushed in. From what I'm reading about in all the other reviews, this seems to be a common issue and should warrant a class action lawsuit if they can't remedy the problem. We'll be sure to avoid Frigidaire products going forward.

Button Issue and Filter specs

Timster11 2/1/2023

The Button on my Range hood has come off and has gone back in the belly of the range while trying to fix it. Maybe got tired and is resting in peace inside the Range hood. Great workmanship to create something where it belongs (the button). Now use a Chopstick to start the Range hood in first gear. Wanted to know if I can buy a replacement filter and the specs of it. Please provide the above info the great Online Outreach specialist if possible as the filter is getting flimsy and ready to rest in peace too soon.

Buttons fell out - Please Recall

El Gallo 1/11/2023

Like everyone else with negative reviews here on Frigidaire and many threads on the web, we are down to one button after a few years. I contacted Frigidaire after our first year when the first button fell off, and they would not honor the warranty. Both of our neighbors have the same vent and the same problem. All of our appliances are Frigidaire (e.g., Stove, microwave, dishwasher, etc.) and have served us well outside this hood. With so many complaints and negative reviews, it would seem like Frigidaire would have extended the warranty or recalled this hood. Consider a range hood that will last longer with a better warranty that won't leave you with a useless scrap of metal!

Also had fan button pop loose, now lost inside vent hood

Multra 12/7/2022

Have had it less than a year, the buttons are aluminum so can't get to it using magnetic grabber, going to require uninstalling the whole unit. Level 2-3 fan is annoyingly loud. Contacted parts replacement line, they do not offer the buttons by themselves, that's a huge mistake. Please tell me the person I spoke to is wrong, and that you do in fact offer these buttons. Or tell me how to remove the front trim piece that covers the switch assembly. I'd rather have wisdom teeth pulled than have to take this vent hood down. It was not an easy install.

Stainless steel matches Gallery appliances

72mike 9/14/2022

Nice construction and appearance. Protective film does not come off easily especially where two panels butt up against each other. Easy to self install. Nice lighting. No need for 3 speeds. Fan motor housing was only partially attached to hood. The optional charcoal filter with a 6 month life costs $215 each!!! Insane!!! Shameful!!! Whole hood only costs $300.

CarolAnnT 9/12/2022

It's a very stylish vent hood for a minimalist like myself. I like clean and uncluttered and this fits the bill. The fan works great and the light on it is very convenient. It is also the perfect size for my pot filler and doesn't obstruct it at all.

Nice look and feel, but™€¦™€¦

MnMike 9/12/2022

1. They should mention to record model and serial number before installation for ease of reading. 2. Protective film on the surfaces comes off way too hard and where there are seams with a tuck under overlap the film does not come off well. Adhesive residue does result in some areas. 3. The BIGEE™€"- fan motor assembly was not fastened on all 4 screws to the range hood. 2 screws tight, 2 screws only into the plastic housing. Result was a very loud fan rubbing that was solved by tightening the 2 loose screws. Awkward but it was accomplished successfully. 4. No need for a 3 speed fan. Two is more than adequate. 5. Only air filtering is done by a washable stainless steel mesh panel. Would be much more effective with some sort of filtering media like charcoal. Washing will require very light handling. 6. But the stainless steel coloration is a match to my Frigidaire Gallery range and refrigerator. 7. My local small business brick and mortar store where I bought my fridge and range did not carry this so I had to buy elsewhere! They also don™€™t provide Frigidaire warranty service and repair. Go figure that!

Make better choices, you get what you pay for.

Mon Diva 7/7/2022

Although I will agree with the majority of these reviews. This oven hood DOES have faulty, cheap buttons that will fall apart and if you™€™re lucky will get lost inside the hood assembly. That requires you to take the whole oven hood apart (approximately 12 T10 torque screws) just to get to the button assembly. Do not pay a technician to replace the button assembly. I was able to find my button after disassembly and push it back in and then reassemble. On a level of 1-10, approximately a 4 in difficultly level.

5.5 years life for a range hood that was used mostly for the lights

Ms G 100 4/27/2022

Your agent wrote: "There is not a recall on the appliance. Some models are not serviceable appliances. During the warranty, these appliances would be reviewed for a replacement. After the warranty has ended, a rebate can be offered to assist with a valid receipt." They must think it is junk if they won't service them.Builder installed so no receipt and 10% is not much of a rebate. Third Frigidaire appliance that has died in the last month, done with them.

owner of crappy hood 1/24/2022

Just like others, I have a button which fell out of the unit and then tried to re-insert and it got pushed all the way into unit. So far have been in a chat with associates for 2 hours and they are not able to help. The front buttons should be serviceable.Looks like I'll be replacing the unit with something else.

Don't Buy! Buttons break and are very expensive to replace

Frustrated1000 12/16/2021

The push buttons on the front of this are defective. They are made to look like they are metal but they connect to a very small piece of plastic that breaks off easily. The replacement part is more expensive than the entire unit.

Best range I've ever used

SuzieWiz 12/15/2021

The convection oven is something I've wanted for a while and now I know what I was missing. Roasts are much better, my cookies aren't burnt on one side any more. One of the most lived features is the different size and purpose gas burners. I can finally cook a meal and have everything done at the same time, cooked perfectly. I'm awaiting my free air fry pan so I can try some apple cinnamon crisps and potatoe slices. Worth every penny.

Vent Hood Range - Button issue

Scott112 11/10/2021

Hello, I have the 30" Range vent hood, I had the same issue as multiple reviewers. The buttons go back into the unit and the only repair available is to call a service center to send a tech for repair. The button part itself is $288, then add in a service tech, it is less expensive to purchase a new and updated model than replace the little buttons. This unit is apparently a throw away unit if there is an issue. It worked well for 2.5 years, sleek, quite, nice looking unit. This was disappointing that this issue is a common occurrence according to other reviews and Frigidaire does not stand behind their product of a common issue. I can see if this was 5+ years old, but 2 years old, seems unreasonable to have to replace the unit or pay $300 plus for a repair.

Mike44444 7/4/2021

Worst range hood I've ever experienced. The "suction" is extremely weak, and forget about changing a bulb. I had to break 2 bulbs getting them out, and I've never had that issue before with any other hood. Read the reviews everywhere, the bulb replacement process is a nightmare. Pick another hood!
