Good airflow / motor capacity Its “CFM Motor Class” is listed as 560 CFM (i.e. its motor is sized for that capacity). In many listings it is rated at 350 CFM in its standard mode. The higher motor class gives headroom (i.e. better capacity under more restrictive ducting or losses).

Sleek, hidden vent & stainless steel design The hidden vent design offers a cleaner aesthetic. Made in stainless steel, giving a durable, corrosion-resistant surface.
