  • Works exactly as you'd expect. Great as a drop in to existing old housing if compatible
Style: 50 CFM Energy Star Size: 2.0 Sones
My 25 year old broan 50CFM 4.0 was failing, so it was time to replace. I made sure this one fit into the existing housing, so installation was a breeze. It really is a lot quieter at 2.0, if you use the fan to cover the sound of you taking a dump you might want to go louder. But I prefer a quieter fan. Apparently it is more energy efficient as well while still pulling out the same air, but I could find no information as to power usage. i've had this for some months now and no issues at all. If I had to complain, it looks like the new cover design may restrict airflow a bit, but at only 50CFM, its likely not. ... show more

  • Fit Perfectly!
Our house was built in 1989 and has 3 bathrooms with ventilation fans. I highly suspect those fans have NEVER been replaced. I looked at the fan cover and saw the name brand "Broan" and took a chance ordering this replacement fan. It worked like a charm! I removed the fan from the outside housing and only installed the internal fan. I removed the old fan in the master bath that had gotten severely clogged and rusted and refused to turn anymore. The outside housing in the ceiling is severely rusted, but still holding well. Replacing the entire unit would involve a full bathroom reno, which we aren't ready to do just yet. I vacuumed out all the dust and installed the new fan inside the previous fan's housing. It was simple, easy to do, doesn't even involved shutting off the power to the bathroom, and worked like a charm. It fits perfectly, and we have a working bathroom fan again! I ordered two more to replace the fans in every bathroom. ... show more

  • Speed
Style: 50 CFM Energy Star Size: 2.0 Sones
The Broan-NuTone 688E is a quiet and efficient bathroom exhaust fan, earning its Energy Star rating. Its 50 CFM airflow is suitable for smaller bathrooms, effectively removing moisture and odors. Installation is generally straightforward, and the low sone rating (2.0) makes it pleasantly quiet during operation. While basic, it's a reliable choice for those seeking a cost-effective and efficient bathroom fan. ... show more

  • Simple yet Stylish Ventilation Fan.
Style: 70 CFM Size: 6.0 Sones
Looks great, and has a good build quality, but it’s very loud. It’s pretty easy to install, and it pulls in the moisture and smells well. I only wish it was quieter.

  • Needed a fan that would suck up the bad smells.
So this fan is super easy to install (you really don't need an electrician for this) good enough noise to block out those awkward sounds, and has been working great for the past month. When my old fan broke it reminded me how much I miss the sound when sitting in the toilet, also made me realize how much I needed the air to be sucked out. Thank you for making my bathroom liveable. ... show more

  • Outstanding value, Whisper quiet!!
Style: 80 CFM Energy Star Size: 1.5 Sones
My previous Bathroom exhaust fan was a 20-year old, SUPER-LOUD 6 'Sones' @ 70 CFM, and would drown out EVERYTHING -- the nearby radio, water from the shower... conversation was 100% impossible. Awful, just plain awful... Thank God it finally played out -- good riddance! This 1.5 Sones Exhaust fan is so quiet that I absolutely can not hear it, while showering. In fact, for the first time, I can hear everything nearby -- every single thing and every spoken word! When out of the shower, I still have to practically stand underneath this fan in order to really hear it and know for sure that it's actually running. Added bonus: It look good and removes far more steam, more quickly. Yet, the 80 CFMs are just enough to not overpower the size of my Bathroom. The perfect sweet spot. While only time will reveal it's long-term reliability, this is a Trusted, proven brand. I searched high and low, read countless reviews and was tempted to pay far more money for the "quiter (??)" Panasonic "Whisper" model. Two things stopped me dead in my tracks, however: its bigger footprint/size would require widening my existing ceiling opening (unlike this one), and mixed reviews about its true quietness. Bottom line: If you want a bona fide "Whisper quiet" Bathroom exhaust fan, @ a relatively cheap price, from a proven brand. Stop searching...buy this Exhaust fan today. ... show more

  • I can't believe this thing works, but it does!!
The media could not be loaded. For the price, this is an amazing deal. I bought one on sale and expected to return it. I simply did not trust a fan at that low of a price. I was so impressed with the first one, I bought a second at full price, which was still less than 20% of the price of any other comparable bathroom fan. It is a little bit loud, but that white noise is half the reason iI use a bathroom fan, honestly. So, it's perfect. I now have one in each of my bathrooms and i could not be happier. I am thinking about buying a couple more just in case they wear out quickly, but I've had the first one running for over a month and it's still working as it did on day 1. Great fan for an unbelievably low price. If you need one, buy this one! ... show more
