  Pros:
  - The product itself works exactly as described. When extended, it does a pretty good job of exhausting the front half of my cooktop. Not perfect, but significantly better than it did prior to installing this. The front of my microwave … More no longer is covered in condensation, which I know was a leading factor in the demise of my previous microwave/hood.
  - It's well built, installs easily, and came with good instructions.
  Cons:
  - Expensive for what it is, which is essentially some bent metal pieces and some screws. Hats off to them, though, because I don't know of another item on the market that is equivalent to this without being built into the actual microwave/hood itself.
  - For obvious reasons, you really need to have this extended any time you wish to exhaust your cooktop. When closed, it will block the vent under the microwave. I'm going to have to train myself to extend it, even when only using one of the back burners. Not a deal breaker.
  - Probably my biggest issue is purely theoretical, but thought it was worth mentioning... it might not matter to you, but it did to me. When I was in the process of purchasing it from their website, it had a space available at checkout for "coupon code". Like many other people, I Googled to see if there were any active coupons that I could apply to my purchase. I tried all the various codes that came up and inevitably, every single one of them came up as "not a valid code". Except one... The one that did come up as a valid (but expired) code at checkout at the Microvisor website? "TRUMP". I find it odd that a company would advertise their political leanings like this, especially for an item that I would think tends to appeal more to people on the left-leaning end of things. Much like Tesla is now realizing, it's probably best to keep that stuff to yourself or you risk ostracizing a good portion of your target market. Worth sending back? I'll be honest... I seriously thought about whether to buy it. If they had a viable competitor, I probably would have bought from their competitor. In the end, my desire to properly address my kitchen exhaust outweighed my disapproval of the (theoretical) political leanings of the company. Do with that information what you will.
  A very well thought out, but overpriced, product.

  Wasen't really to sure about this product but I took a chance on the Microvisor Hood! And I am glad I did! This product is very well constructed and pretty simple to install!! It does what it is designed to do! To bad I did not … More discover it sooner!!! Thank you Microvisor it really helps with my cooking!!!

  As promised excellent quality and I installed in 20 min ! Thank you !
• Marco Morana ★★★★★ in the last week
  Solid construction and fits perfectly under my microwave. 100% recommend the extendable/retractable version as well.
• Katherine Welsh ★★★★★ in the last week
  Great customer service! I ordered the stationary model but before it was delivered, I called to see if I could change to the retractable one. George helped me through the process of returning the stationary one and ordering the retractable … More one. The video and explanation for installation was a bit confusing because the video kept going back and forth to the printed version to the human version, but we finally figured it out. The Microvisor works as advertised and really decreased the amount of smoke and fumes going up on the face of my cabinets and onto the ceiling. I did order the clip on LED light that was advertised on their website and I'm glad I did because the light of my microwave is somewhat hidden with the Microvisor and I really like direct light when I'm cooking.
• Allyson Heisey ★★★★★
  Arrived undamaged and was very easy to install. It does a great job of diverting the steam from the stove top away from the microwave electronics.
• Roz Wentz ★★★★★
  This came in a timely manner and was easy to assemble and install. It works as advertised. I would recommend this product to anyone who has a microwave over the range.
• Marc Soles ★★★★☆
  Installation was easy,and so far I like how well it works. One minor downside is when it is in the retracted position it blocks microwave light, so you have to pull it out to have light. No biggie.
• Martin Handy ★★★★★
  Easy to install. Install instructions could be a little nicer, but they work.
  More importantly, it works! When frying things on our stove, the cabinets above would get covered with junk. Now, nothing. I've watched the smoke rise … More from the side and the hood catches a lot more than before.
  It looks good too. Our daughter thought it was always there.
• Gary Arvedon ★★★★★
  I am very impressed at the customer service I received with my order of a removable hood for under my microwave. While there were some delays in freight, mostly due to the holidays, the company worked with me. I would very much recommend … More their products for friends or anyone that has suffered with a smoky kitchen and limited venting under standard over the range microwaves.
• Z Z ★★★★★
  Looks and fits great!!! Installation was a breeze!!! Looks like it was originally part of the appliances. Would definitely buy again!!!!
• Graham Boone ★★★★★
  Awesome product. I have an externally-vented microwave exhaust hood, but steam/smoke/fumes often escaped to the front due to the somewhat weaker suction of my setup. If only there was some way to extend the 'reach' of my microwave, … More a scoop of sorts? It might not increase the suction but it would direct more to the exhaust ports. It would have to look good, almost 'factory', and preferably be easy to remove for cleaning/not-in-use. I thought this thing would be my great invention, but Microvisor beat me to it apparently! It's simple, easy to install and remove, and just a solid product. No crazy sharp edges I could find. Took me less than 10minutes to install, while drinking my morning coffee. Customer service was responsive too, when I ordered the wrong item at first.
• William Carter ★★★★★
  We bought the Microvisor Hood because our microwave is mounted above our stove (range) and also acts as the exhaust fan. This was an issue in our last house too. When I read about the Microvisor Hood, I just had to try it. The Microvisor … More Hood should be offered by every microwave manufacturer as an accessory for over the range mounting. It works exactly as described and directs the smoke, fumes etc... to the exhaust fan of the microwave instead of into the air. It was very simple to install and took only minutes with 2 people. It also looks like it came from the factory as part of the microwave.
• Terry Howard ★★★☆☆
  Instructions and video were not good. Rear magnets were weak and I had to loosen front screws so the magnets would hold but also had to remove rear screws because the magnets would not grab because those screws were in the way. Finally … More got it to hold, boiled some water to try it out and steam was escaping through the front upper opening and I have one of the best microwaves that has a pretty powerful exhaust fan. Very disappointed. Over priced for what you get. I am capable of modifying it but why do they sell something that clearly needs to be improved?
• Iris Quizhpi ★★★★★
  My friend told me about you guys, and we were a little bit skeptical about the product TILL we actually purchased it and put it to work. You can definitely see how the product sends the ventilation right where it is supposed to go. I am … More getting a second one for my second kitchen!
• Arah Hycenth afor ★★★★★
  Got this hood extension from microvisor and it worked out so great, easy to install and fits perfectly. George was so helpful in making sure it got to us in canada despite all ups and down from the shipping company. I recommend them for … More all your hood extensions.
• Brad Osborne ★★★★☆
  This is a good product and I couldn't find anything similar on the market. Installation wasn't that hard and delivery was good. The hood helps exhausting though it doesn't take care of everything. It would be good if they … More sealed the gap between the deployed hood and the microwave, but that's only a minor source of additional leakage.
• Don Seibert ★★★★☆
  We love our new Microvisor hood. It really helps to capture the frying smoke and vapors and redirect them into the regular filtering system. My only complaint is that there was only 1 little screw provided for attaching the hood to the … More slides, so I went to Lowe's who was unable to duplicate it, other than thread, so the right side only closes partially. Can you please send me another screw"
• Sha M ★★★★★
  It’s perfect and helps my microwave vent do its job. Mr George Tsakiris was especially helpful with questions before I purchased.
• Crystal Balke ★★★★★
  This hood has been a miracle!! Because we didn’t have a hood anytime we cooked anything that had any form of oil in it. It ended up all over our microwave and cabinets that are above the stove, this hood has completely changed that! There … More is no longer any mess above our stove when cooking. In the best part, it is super easy to install. My only complaint if any is I wish I would’ve known about this sooner!!
• Sherry Boisclair ★★★★☆
  My husband likes the design of the hood and has noticed a difference in fumes/ condensation being a lot less. I would’ve given 5 stars but he wishes the corners had some type of bumper on them as he has whacked his head a few times!
• Jay Zimerman ★★★★★
  Product is excellent quality and looks like it came with the microwave. I was able to install it in minutes. The best part is our house is smoke free when we fry food on the stove. I do not have to open windows or doors to clear the smoke. … More
• SK ★★★★☆
  I tried to find a microvisor hood and discovered that this is the only available maker and seller. The size of the product fits perfectly to attach with the microwave, and the installation is very simple. However, the hood does not fully … More capture all the fumes from cooking. It manages to catch about 80% of the fumes and steam, while the remaining 20% escapes from the sides and front. In terms of effectiveness, it works at about 80% efficiency. Still, installing it is clearly better than not having one at all.
• Imran Zaman ★★★★★
  I was weary about this purchase. However, after installing and using it for over a week I find that my investment into purchasing the retractable visor was worth my money. The smell generated during cooking has practically disappeared. … More Price was a little high but I feel that spending the extra was worth it. I am glad that I bought it. It works!
• Roth Bernstein ★★★★★
  The microvisor is a game-changer if you have a home with a microwave exhaust. Great build quality, really clever design, and really easy to install.
  I seared off 12 pounds of beef ribs the first day I got it and didn’t set off my smoke … More alarm even once, and this smoke alarm will go off if I leave toast in the toaster 30 seconds too long.
  Incredible niche product!
• Raymond Schul ★★★★★
  Great product, works as advertised to keep steam and cooking grease off the cabinets above the microwave.
  My short wife thought it would block her ability to reach into the microwave, it didn’t.
  Excellent order and shipping communications … More as well as a faster than expected shipment/deliver.
  Easy install, very much worth it.
• Kenza Mouttaki ★★★★★
  I seriously thought this was a scam at first until i did more research. The product is awesome, easy to install, literally 4 screws. Fits like it came straight from the microwave manufacturer. Safely packaged.
  No more fumes/steam escaping … More the vent !
• William Dennis ★★★★★
  Great look and perfect fit. Didn't take long to figure out the correct install configuration.
• Michael ★★★★★
  Great quality, super easy to install, nice shipping, worth the price.
• Terrance E ★★★★★
  Looks great and was incredibly easy to install — I barely had to glance at the instructions. It lined up perfectly with the existing screws and took only about 10 minutes to set up. It covers the front two burners perfectly, containing … More steam and smoke from cooking. Very pleased with this purchase!
