Customer Reviews for Broan-NuTone QT Series Very Quiet 80 CFM Ceiling Bathroom Exhaust Fan with Light, ENERGY STAR*

My customers were very happy with how quiet this unit was. Easy to install and a very good unit. Would definitely use it on other projects.

The fan is not as quiet as hoped - purchased another brand for another remodel done a year earlier and prefer that one.

Extremely quiet.

So far very good! Very quiet although fan got somewhat noisier after duct work install. Install was a snap from below. Thankfully I didn't have to contend much with all the cellulose above. Lots of light too.

Extremely satisfied with this exhaust fan. The fan is extremely quiet, unlike any other exhaust I have ever seen. It is like you barely know it is running. The light is a fluorescent bulb but nice, not harsh. Not using the night light because I did not have a third switch.

Very poorly packaged. The first one didn't work. So I had to pay to have it put up and removed plus wait for another one and again pay for install. Traveling through mail it needs some sort of padding

Very quiet. Installer said it was the quietest bathroom fan he had ever installed. It also provides a good amount of light.

Super quiet. You almost can't hear it. Would be nice if they made an easier way to hang on top of 2x4 rafters for remodeling but I made it work.

This unit is extremely quiet and I am very happy with the purchase

I was disappointed that the fan was not as quite as I expected, especially since the name is "very quiet". Still, it is quieter and moves more air than the basic fan I replaced, which was installed by the builder. Also, the compact florescent bulbs included with the fan provide more light than the fan I replaced. This fan is intended for installation in new construction, so I had to adapt it for retrofit. Fan seems to be well constructed and includes mounting brackets and spacers.

Was hard to find fan that fit my old fan opening. Home Depot had it and the directions were good which made the install easier. Just wish the fan cover was larger. I needed to improvise and make a molding to hide to slight opening in the ceiling.

For the power that is runs at, it is quiet, very happy!

Vent fan operates with virtually no detectable sound and effectively removes moisture from the room. The night light is also a nice feature.

I'm a research junkie when it comes to purchasing new products. I read and study items for sometimes months prior to purchase. With that being said, there wasn't a ton of information out there on this specific model, so I kind of took a bit of a chance. I had read many reviews on similar models, and found mixed results, muddying up the waters even more. Since I knew I could return this item, I went ahead with the purchase. There will be no returning this fan! It well exceeded my expectations. It is the quietest fan I have ever heard (not heard?). This may be in part due to the 6" duct, many are 4". With that said, it is necessary to install new 6" ducting if you want the most efficient and lowest noise levels. PSA: This is not a simple replacement unit. It is designed for new construction. I purchased this fan as a replacement for an old noise maker, I was a bit surprised at the difficulty of installation. Not the fan's fault. It is a quality product.

I am happy with this product overall except that the edges did not meet flush against the ceiling so some shadows from the light come through around the edges. It probably bothers me more than anyone else! My old light/exhaust fan didn't provide hardly any light to the small powder room whereas this one is much brighter so I didn't have to add extra lighting above the mirror that I had considered. The electrician installed it without any problems.

This should have been a 5 star product. That's where it started off. Having a 6 inch duct and no available 6 inch duct or outlet kits means you'll have to use 4 inch duct. Which means the fan will become much noisier. Which really defeats the purpose of spending this kind of money for an ultra quiet fan. Too bad. Guess I'll go back to Panasonic for quiet fans.

Bought this fan to replace a small noisy fan as part of a bathroom renovation. It is so quiet that I forget it is on after a while. CFL bulbs are bright and color is good, I only wish they used standard light sockets instead of 2-pin sockets.

Can't here it when my air conditioning is running.

Great product. It is definitely worth the money. But make sure you buy a 3 switch for this fan b/c of the nightlight, fan, & light functions. My two complaints are that Broan 1.) doesn't make a 6" duct roof kit when most of their products require 6" duct, only have 4" kit. Have to buy the parts individually which is rather costly. 2.) the fan doesn't include all the lights needed

It's not worth the money, You can find one cheaper do the same as this.

I'm an engineer so I evaluate products on the technical level. This fan easily beats all construction grade fans in design and assembly. Aesthetics design is simple so it blends well and does not try to make a statement. Everything I wanted from a bathroom fan.

The fan is so quiet compared to what was in the bathroom originally that we can hardly tell when it is on.
