Product was not worth the price. Material appears to be made of cheap plastic, with assembly instructions that were not clear and installation was a mess with the parts supplied.

Hi BJK, Thank you for taking the time to review model QTN130LE1. This model is rated at 130 CFM with 1.5 sones. This fan will be audible but should be fairly quiet. Please contact our Product Support Team directly to troubleshoot this model with you. They can be reached at 888-336-6151, and would be happy to assist you. Broan-NuTone

Unit was easy to install. Still can't believe how quite unit is. Would recommend anyone that needs a new light/fan.

The fans are a lot quieter than I had thought. No more foggy mirrors with the 130CFM system. The regular and the night light are a real plus to this product.

This is a fair quality unit, however the design was not developed, considering this fan light unit may be a replacement for an existing fan light. Specifically, this unit must mount against the ceiling joist versus other units that provide sliding rails that attach to the fan box, allowing the box to be repositioned over any existing cut outs in a finished ceiling. Specifically, This unit does not provide that flexibility and as a result made installation considerably more time-consuming than it should’ve been as the ceiling joist had to be built up on the left side, so that the fan box could be attached and the existing cutout in finished ceiling could be used. The other alternative for us to do a ceiling patch once again, not optimal. For a long-standing brand such as Braun Nutone that should’ve been considered.

Hi JohnC,
We appreciate your feedback on the QTN130LE1 ventilation fan and light unit. This model uses the mounting ears on the housing to mount the unit to the ceiling joists. On page 2 of the installation instructions, it is noted that the optional MHB4 hanger bars can be used to mount the housing anywhere between the joists. These hanger bars would be purchased separately. We do hope you will enjoy your new fan. Broan-NuTone

Good fan - IF you buy all the extra parts!
This EXPENSIVE fan did not include the mounting brackets that go with it. Requires an extra purchase. Then the mounting brackets from Nutone did not include the two #8-18 screws needed to keep the thing from rattling. Required ANOTHER extra purchase! Why are they so chintzy that they can't include a couple of ESSENTIAL little screws!? ALSO, you'll need a special switch with TWO light controls AND another for the fan--unless you want to wire it up without the night light like I did.

Hi RCA1,
We appreciate your feedback on the QTN130LE1 ventilation fan. The housing on this model has attached mounting ears for installation. The optional hanger bar kit model MHB4 is sold separately. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Broan-NuTone

    Fan is loud, Sc100 fan control makes it buzz.
    Had our bathroom remodeled. The fan is on a vaulted ceiling. I had professionally installed. They used the 4 Ty o 6 adss as Peter. The fan is loud. I figured if I reduced the air flow, I bought the sc100 fan controller. It makes the fan buzz and doesn’t really control the speed.

    Hi Joednc,
    We appreciate your feedback on the QTN130LE1 model. This model uses 6" round duct size and will include a 6" to 4" reducer. Reducing the duct size will slightly affect the sound of the unit and its performance. The performance information is on the specification sheet. We would recommend contacting our Product Support Team directly for more assistance at 888-336-6151. Broan-NuTone

      Strong and Quiet. This was a replacement of a 30 year old fan. Heavier than other brands and this was difficult to install on my own. It is working well in a bathroom that has no window or other natural ventilation. It is quieter than I thought it would be.

      Sticks out, ugly
      This fan works great if you don’t mind how clunky it is. Ruins the esthetics of a remodeled bathroom.

        Great design and CFM but NOT for retrofit
        I ordered this off the website and used the filter to show me retrofit only. After getting it unboxed and the old fan out, I realized that it was not retrofit and must have attic access. Luckly I did have attic access so I was able to get it installed with a little extra work. The light is nice and bright and the high CFM quickly removes the moister from the room. Would definately buy it again.

          Grille is warped
          I installed the fan and everything went very well. I did secure the exhaust adapter because it did not seal properly. Got to the end and put the grille in place. It is warped. Does not sit flat against the ceiling. I did take a straight edge and inspected the ceiling for any wavy areas. It is perfectly flat. I inspected the grill and noticed that it is warped. I spent 200 dollars on this fan only to have a grill that looks horrible!! I don’t know what to do now.

            Grille issue
            After installing the unit I then installed the grille assuming it would sit flat on the ceiling. It looks a bit warped. So I got my straight edge and placed it in multiple area on the ceiling. It was perfectly flat. So after spending 200 dollars on this fan I have a grille that looks horrible. Now what !!!

              We recently replaced an older bathroom fan/light with this Broan Nutone QT Series 130 CFM fan. We are very pleased. It does a great job removing the moist air in the bathroom (12x8 size) leaving the mirror cleared of fog. It is a bit noisy while running-someone might be bothered by it, but we do not mind it at all. While the water is running-I barely notice it. My husband installed -it did take him a while but he was able to get the job done. We are happy with this fan/light and would recommend purchasing.

              Dips/Customer Service Is Bad
              I bought this unit not even a year ago. Even though it is vented properly with airflow it still has condensation build-up on the great of the unit. When I call customer service to explain what is happening. They hang up on me. They never ask for my phone number in case we are disconnected. They don't provide a ticket number in case I call back so my problem is of record. The unit may be good, but without any assistance, I must give this one start.
