Advantages: ASC is very cool, looks good, nice lighting. Disadvantages: Low positon.
...As soon as someone mentioned to me a about cooker hood with Automatic Sensor Controls, I thought, that's sounds interesting. I sought out the Britannia ASC and ordered it online. The delivery is big. My hood arrived on a palate and the box itself is huge. The delivery stipulates checking on arrival so it was unpacked in the front (we needed to do this anyway to get it into the house).
This hood needs three people to fit it as it is very heavy. My house is a small 3 bedroom semi and I designed my kitchen so the kitchen diner would be split into two by means of an island cooker hood over an oven and hob.
Overall, I am more pleased with the appearance than I thought I would be, as from the photographs the hood looks bulky and a bit old fashioned. In reality, I believe it has more durability style-wise, than the contempary glass...

What is it?
-------
Well, to be blunt, Magicool is just water in an aerosol can! The blurb on the can says that it is a "hot weather cooler and freshener", providing "instant heat relief in sun-baked cars", and that for us girlies it can "rehydrate and sooth the skin". Basically, it is a neutral aerosol spray that you can spray on any part of your body, even your face, to freshen yourself up a bit...
