Very smart extractor canopy

Advantages: Noise level; Stylish looks; Easy to maintain
Disadvantages: None to report

This is a very stylish bit of kit from Baumatic. It was easy to install, and the flue extender should accommodate most ceiling heights. Our kitchen guy even commented that this is one of the more straightforward installs he has had to do, even when we requested it be set against the stainless steel splashback we had bought. The controls are very easy to use, and with its 2 x 20w halogen lights on at night, it looks very smart indeed. The glass plinth ...

techno super sexy kitchen extractor hood

Advantages: Beautifully designed, easy to install, very effective
Disadvantages: pricey, not easy to find on display

I have owned this hood for 2 years.What a trojan, it looks as good today as the day it was fitted, its just so sexy, I called it the wedge. I had seen it in an aeg brochure, and thought yes that's the one. The next problem was finding one to look at they where brand new. This was in itself the hardest job finding a shop to actually go and look at it , feel the controls, look at the quality, even aeg uk didn't know which shops had it on display. ...
...display in the local Wickes " just not where I expected it to be considering it is top end price for an extractor. It did not disappoint, in fact all the difference with the bigger one is it is extended by two plain side panels, so it is actually no more effective. My husband is tall and hates hoods that jut out that he bangs his head on, this was perfect. The kitchen fitters we employed (30 years in the trade) where a little bemused and lots of ...

What's the point of it?

Advantages: Looks nice
Disadvantages: Very very noisy and doesn't extract steam

...it's stainless steel!) Rang Baumatic and they told me that their hoods are only made to extract odours, not steam. Checked the hand book, yep, that's exactly what it says. Total waste of money, as I expected any cooker hood designed to go over a hob would extract steam from pans, otherwise what's the point? ...

It sucks, but in a good way

Advantages: Looks great, does the job
Disadvantages: A bit pricey

...single manufacturer. That manufacturer was Elica and all the extractors looked the business. The bonus being that they were broadly equivalent in price to the premium brand German models. From the beginning we were drawn to a particular model called the Om (no, seriously). This is a spectacular design, a million miles from any other extractor and guaranteed to grab the attention in any kitchen. Big, black and square it leans away from the wall over ...
...the kitchen. Six months on I'm very happy with the Artica. It has gone about its duties impeccably, and aesthetically has transferred well from the showroom to the home. I have no reservations about this model, and by extension Elica as a brand, so will happily offer my recommendation. ...
