Just be sure to check the dimensions. I know you know that... but typically RV range hoods are smaller all the way around. AND, they vent out the back, not the top.

Here's a really nice one:

I just saw that it's ductless but you could vent it out the back.

Vintage Strawsine Range Hood Avacado Color 12 Volt | eBay
I do some borderline winter camping in mine and found that proper, or at least decent, ventilation requires most windows or doors open. Remember those fumes can KILL you, so even low or agreeable doses are not good. With that much vent any heat you've stored up is gone. So when I saw this avacado one, to match my fridge and range, pop up on ebay right when I started looking, I knew it would be a good investment(of $10!). I'm hoping it will make the whole cooking experience safer and warmer.

Never bumped my head. Never had any trouble cleaning range hood with 409. Don't have a porthole over sink. Don't have what it takes to create a problem for myself where none exists. Now if this was about the average square footage of food prep space in most of these trailers, I'd be ready to scramble an egg. I've got 2' between sink and three-burner range top. Scamps with sink across aisle from cooktop also have two useful counter areas. I am amazed that so many marques can't provide a place to set down a saucepan on a 17 to 21' platform!

The range hood is right in front of my face, it's hard to even see the stove.

Seriously, dump it. Lots of trailers come without them.
My Opinion!

While at the RV show last weekend I noticed some of hoods had all kinds of gauges built into them. Batteries, tanks etc. Might be worth your while to keep an eye open for the features when dealing with the surplus dealers. Maybe even tour some of the stealerships to see what is on the market.

My hood was the first think I took out. It was pretty useless. If I want to vent, I just crank up the one on my roof.

Well, I ended up with this. I'll throw it in for that price. If I don't like it, that's easy enough to take care of later. I don't have a powered vent in the camper yet, so it might be more important for me than others. i don't know if I'll get one in before the first long camping trip. Thanks for the help.

That range hood has been around a long time. Got one in the Burro.

I put the new range hood in. The fan was wired backwards, so those with hoods not working well might want to check that. Once wired right, it sucks the smoke from a match up very well.

Well that ain't no good. Maybe you got the one for use in South America. April is coming. What's that green machine on the counter?

retro microwave. It gets mixed reviews, some good, some bad. Hopefully this is a good one.
