Cooker hoods of various designs

Imagine a modern kitchen without a hood is quite difficult. The main purpose of the cooker hood is to ensure air circulation, preventing odors from cooking. This element of household appliances traps soot particles, so the walls will always be clean. It also protects you from breathing fumes and smoke.

Cooker hood reviews

Furniture in the kitchen with an extractor will stay longer in a well-groomed clean state, respectively, will last longer. The hood may have a charcoal or grease filter. Coal cleans the kitchen from odors, fatty ones prevent the spread of particles of fat. This unit can operate in two modes:

  • outflow (polluted air is discharged from the kitchen);
  • circulation (air is cleaned and returned to the room).

According to the design and type of installation, kitchen hoods, reviews of which are on this page, are ceiling, built-in and wall. The choice should be based on the size of the kitchen. Cooker hoods vary in type of control, dimensions and noise level.

Hood Elikor Amethyst
A comment
We got an elikor hood in the kitchen, just immediately after the repair. Before that, it was an old one. We used it for 6 months from the moment of moving to the start of repair. I’ll tell you this is heaven and earth, the quality of traction is not comparable. Well, as for me, the dome design itself helps to collect everything and throw it into the ventilation pipe.
pros
Relatively inexpensive, it looks very beautiful, makes its work 5k
Minuses
In addition to sooo long delivery there is nothing substantial, I will not slander)
Term of use
several months

Hood Krona KAMILLA 600
A comment
Excellent hood, it has been working with us for more than 2 years, no complaints, just change the filter and that's it. The hood is small in size, silver is suitable for any kitchen, one of its advantages is a low noise level, there is a backlight, and if necessary it can be increased by pulling out the panel. The suction quality of the hood is excellent, the smell of burning is eliminated almost instantly. The hood is very easy to clean, the surface can be cleaned without difficulty.
pros
size, noise level, design
Minuses
until they found
Term of use
more than three years

Cata TF-5260 inox, functionally and inexpensively.
A comment
Since 1998, in my kitchen there was a simple hood extract purchased in Poland (unfortunately its name was not preserved), when replacing the kitchen, they changed it to Cata TF-5260 inox. Compared to the old one, she is just a sorceress. Quite quiet, loud noise only at the third speed (but this speed, in principle, is not particularly needed). There is an opportunity to reinstall the active (coal) filter, which we did. The power for medium-sized home cooking (we have 10 sq. M) is very decent. The price is affordable, and the appearance is universal and will suit almost any style of the kitchen. With a pure soul, I can recommend it.
pros
not expensive, powerful enough, versatile design
Minuses
at third speed is quite noisy
Term of use
more than three years

Simple hood Scarlett.
A comment
We exchanged an apartment and there were no problems choosing a hood - the old owners installed it.The hood is the simplest Scarlett, there are three speeds and two aluminum filters, a backlight.
There are no complaints about the hood - it works well, at a maximum speed it makes quite a lot of noise, but this is not critical. New hoods are expensive and so far I do not consider it timely to change to a new one in order to reduce noise. After a year or two, we think to change the kitchen furniture and then we will change the hood. Perhaps in the furniture we will also embed a hood of a built-in type without a retractable screen. Compared to the one that remained worse in the old apartment, but this one performs its function quite well (it draws smells and steam from cooking).
The wife washes aluminum filters with the usual Mr. muscle, the filters are easily removed, if they are very dirty, they can be soaked in a solution with a detergent. The control is very simple - there are only three power positions, there are no touch controls and timers. As for me, a person in the kitchen is not cooking, this is enough with my head, the power is also sufficient (I smoke in the kitchen late in the winter in the evening and the smoke exhausts completely), but my wife complains about the increased noise and the not very beautiful appearance of the hood. Of course, when changing furniture, we will change the hood, but personally I would not change anything, since I think that the hood performs its functions, although it is the easiest option.
pros
Power, simplicity in management.
Minuses
Increased noise.
Term of use

Feedback on the hood KRONASteell Mini 600 - without a retractable screen.
A comment
My wife persuaded two years ago to change the hood. We bought a kitchen with a corner showcase and therefore our choice was limited to some models. The KRONASteell Mini 600 came in white. Such a hood fit well in the kitchen furniture and did not interfere with opening the corner cabinet door. Her type, without a retractable screen, suited us because of the design of the kitchen itself. Perhaps that is why our choice fell on her. The view is very beautiful, black, has 4 speeds.

It is controlled by electronic control, in which there is a timer. Case made of metal. The built-in backlight is very powerful, the wife sometimes cooks in the evening without additional light (as she says, it is more romantic). A grease filter is installed in the hood. There is still room for the installation of a carbon filter, but we removed the air to the mine, so we did not buy it additionally. As the sellers assured, with these two filters the hood without the possibility of air exhaust, copes well in the kitchen up to 16 sq.m. It is quiet.

In general, they are satisfied with the hood - it works properly and imperceptibly. Sometimes this is bad, because if you do not set a timer, we often forget to turn it off after cooking. The price is a bit confusing, especially since the beauty of the hood is not needed by anyone (it is hidden in a cabinet and you can see it only by looking from below).
pros
Very quiet and functional.
Minuses
Her price.
