Bottom line: It's not bad enough that I wanted to go through the hassle of uninstalling, repackaging, and returning it, but I wouldn't buy it again. YMMV.

True suction will ensure that the dirty air actually gets exchanged, because air being exhausted needs to be replaced by air coming through the gaps in your doors, windows, etc. If your range hood is just a gentle breeze, it's not going to be able to cause the pressure change needed to force new air to come in.
Consider buying a range hood that has at least one (if not 2-3) centrifugal fan blowers. I went with one from a brand called Fotile after doing a bunch of research, but there are tons of brands with similar products. Another brand I considered was Cosmo, but I can't speak to their quality from first hand experience.
If you actually want to remove smoke and cooking odors, you get what you pay for. But also, make sure to get a good installer who will make sure your exhaust duct is properly sized, properly sealed, and actually exhausts the air outside. So many homes don't have proper ducts because lazy contractors know they're hidden in the walls and the homeowner won't realize. A lot of fancy homes have expensive range hoods but poor ducting, causing them to be ineffective.
If you get this all done right, then when you turn your range hood on high and crack a door, you'll feel a massive rush of air hit you. That's when you know you've got a good range hood.
I think I have one that's a bit less than that, it does NOT have much effect if you cook italian or any heavy garlic onion etc type of food.

I bought this, advertised 375, it's garbage. Yes, it really vents if you have steam, or boiling water or maybe light cooking, but once you start adding smelly stuff like fish, garlic, onion, stew, etc.. It does not work all that well. I have mine vented, I thought maybe I have some obstruction because it goes from like 6" round to 3x10 or 4x10 *not sure rectangular vent outside, but it should still work. 375 is no good. My problem is I can't go too deep (height) so 5" was sweet spot, I can probably go up to 6" but that's about it. Any suggestions?
I have induction range.
I know mine exhausts outside because my next door neighbor asks me what smells so good. So obviously there is some air being pushed out. I can also go up to roof and try to measure if necessary. I am worried about seal, though, I can't tell if the seal in attic is good.
