Vent hood

A kitchen vent hood includes a body defining an inclined front face having a vent inlet thereon. A front panel assembly is hingedly coupled with the body and extends along the inclined front face of the body. The front panel assembly includes a vent grate extending across a width of the vent hood body and at least partially covering the vent inlet. A panel bracket extends forward from the vent hood body at a position adjacent to and above the vent grate. An upper panel is coupled with the panel bracket and extends oppositely from the vent grate to define an open space adjacent the front face of the body. A light source is mounted within the panel bracket and is positioned to direct light outwardly therefrom and over the vent grate.
