1) Is the hood all metal? 2) Anyone try ceramic infrared in them?

The hood is plastic with thin metal reflectors for the bulbs (lamps). It is rated for "60 watt type A lamp maximum". The bulb sockets are horizontally mounted, so clearance might be an issue if you are using something larger than a standard bulb size. Hope this helps.

1) no, it's a special heat resistant plastic but you can still feel the heat when you touch it....but it's not overly warm to the touch. 2) I have only used the Zilla Night Black 50 watt bulbs in them myself.

My came with a hood. Of course, i didn't know that until AFTER I ordered another hood separately...so, you just saved $30!

if it was perchased from spigpen I beleive the answer is yes. However, how did it break? Was it noraml wear and tear? In all likely hood they probably want replace it.

no it's very simple to clean. I like the hood in general,really not bad at all, it's just not as powerful as we hoped...good luck!

I'm currently having the same issue. I bought a hand held gas detector & discovered that my new stove has a slight leak from one of the rings! I am waiting on a part from the stove manufacturer to be available (by next week) and will see if it changes the situation! I will recalibrate as directed by the supplier of the hood and will follow up here when I feel either all is okay or status quo!

Ir is Plastic, I don't know what kind of project you have. But there is not much space underneath, unless you fix it in the border. There is about aone centimeter around it. Other than that in the middle, it probably will touch the gear that makes movement. The piece is good and works well, but it is intended fork light objects and I hope you are not planing to use for smithing heavy

This range hood is stainless steel and is of a silver stainless steel color. Thanks! Kitchen Bath Collection

My answer is the same as the other two who responded. However, I did have a question about # 9 Plastic drip tray...when I first got my second Infrawave Oven. Couldn't understand until I saw that it referred to use of rotisserie in some models. This is my second oven and I love it.

From what I saw it was all plastic, but i never checked the inside of the knob, there was some kind of click sound so when I installed the knobs they went on nice and snug. I don't think you will have any issues with it though. As of now they are still on the truck and havent fallen off, pretty solid product in my opinion.

We have ours "indoors" in a room where the windows and doors are rarely closed and we get major trade winds just off the ocean. Everything rusts normally. So far so good with this and it has been about a year. No rust and the metal blades don't have the problem of turning to mush or separating that "composite" blades have. In a year or two my answer might be different, but right now I am pleased with them and they are very effective at cooling, just make sure the ceiling is high enough. It is not a fan I'd stick my fingers into while it is moving.

Great question, I didn't use them. By the way, this is a really nice hood. It works really well and is not loud. The only point I have about it is I cannot seem to figure out how to get the clock to read 12 hour time instead of a 24 hour clock(military time). That's a little annoying, other than that I think you'll be happy. Without the rubber mounts is doesn't rattle at all. Hope this helps.

This is purely low light. It works by displaying images in high contrast, though it also has red leds to "illuminate" things are a longer range, which is barely visible.Despite it's "infrared" claim, it has _no_ infrared capabilities. I've tested it with an electric stovetop, producing a very high temperature gradient with no light in the visible range, and there was absolutely no difference in the view from the hot top to the cold ones.It does work really well for low light.

No....I have a 1970's ceiling. Good hood for the price. Works great....I wish the fan was quieter but a quieter one would of been triple the price.

Glass is dark and you really can't see into it unless it being used. You will see in when the infrared is on and cooking although it is not on all the time during the cooking process. This is a great oven though and you won't be disappointed if you decide to purchase.

Our hood came in perfect shape, but try a steam iron not on, but near it. Gently massage it into shape. Our cat thinks we are the best! At -10 degrees she was toasty.

I only have the metal but have read it's quicker to heat and obviously more durable. At a recent coffee shop they had several metal ones they used. I did not see glass or ceramic.

The hood itself is plastic, the glass is between the light and the water underneath the hood. Just like a standard hood. It is a good one and has held upnicely.
