Hi, has anyone installed Panasonic’s built-in induction hob? Any feedback on induction hobs in general?

Hi zheilwane,
how do you compare this fotile top end with this bosch serie 8 hood? From the available data, not that straight forward.

https://www.bosch-home.com.my/product-list/...oods/DWB91PR50A

ok will compare with fotile EMG9030
1) Suction POwer
Bosch : 964 m³/h (should b using IEC standards also)
Fotile : 1200 m³/h (using IEC standards) - international method
or in malaysia many use labtest or unrestrained flow then it is 1700 m³/h

2) motor type
Bosch : AC motor (same as other brands)
fotile : DC motor (silent)

3) FIlter
Bosch : mesh filter (restrict air flow, like wearing face mask, hard to breath)
FOtile : Surround wing plate + Baffle filter (maximize air flow yet with more than 90% oil filtration)

4) Noise level
Bosch : 64db
Fotile : 48 db (with several patented tech & DC motor)

5) Technogies
bosch : Nothing special, cant find any info in their web
Fotile :
1) INTELLIGENT SELF-ADJUSTING Smart Wing-like Surround Suction Plate
2) Smart Smoke Detection
3) Powerful DC motor with 720 Pa (regular hood 250 - 350)
4) Intelligent Air Management
5) Aerodynamic interior design for lower noise level

Accidentally overcooked my food and caused the oven to be extremely dirty, so thought of sharing how i clean it here

Hi,

Any one use Rubine Sirocco X before?

How would you guys find its performance?

Thanks :-)

up a little budget go for livinox mica, higher suction power, full black (wont c oil stain or finger print) unlike stainless steel. spec and video as per link below
https://buildershardware.com.my/product/liv...-lch-mica-90bl/

higher suction power = higher noise level unless got special tech to reduce noise

also dont rely 100% on catalog spec and many brands test and report LOWEST speed noise level (dB). if u see a noise level that is very low and there is no explanation how they achieve so = the figure is lowest speed db

two hoods with low noise
1. Fotile JQG9009T because it has DC motor
2. Fotile EMS9016 because it has aerodynamic interior design

Hi bro,

want to get your opinion. which brand and model is the best for hood if budget not an issue. please help list down in priority.

im eyeing 9009t and 9016.

thanks

fotile emg9030 or jqg9009t both also good. EMG9030 noise level is even lower than jqg9009t

fotile can send for free within peninsular malaysia

Hi, I'm looking for recommendation for induction hob + hood. My budget for this combo should not more than 5k. Any good suggestion?

Hi all
I have been using Fotile gas hobs for the past 7 years, During the period, I have replaced 2 inner burners and one outer burner. Currently, both my inner burners need to be replaced. The flame intensity and poping sound have been an issue. Fotile suggested GAG86210 gas hob. I was also recommended Livinox LGH ACER 2BF BL hob. I have a budget of RM1K. What's your opinion? Should I get the replacement part, get Fotile or Livinox hob? Thanks in advance Sifus

Price wise acer will b within budget. 50% burning efficiency, 8mm glass, removable burners for easy cleaning

GAG86210 got instant ignition, 60% burning efficiency, anti explosion glass, more stable flame as it is fixed and not removable

1 Possible reason :
Do not put wet pots above the burners, as burner too hot + water (sudden change in temperature) over time could cause the burners to deform or go out of shape. or frequent overspill could cause the same issue

Both hobs also consider high spec products.

Thank you. Does the Livinox hob use manual ignition ie, needs a lighter turn on the stove? Thanks

Comes with regular ignition, similar to the current fotile u r using, need to hold n wait 5 - 6 sec before release

spec and video of the hob can c here, LIVINOX ACER

Anyone used this before?
Hood Electrolux EFC928SC - I like that it has a steam self clean function... But not sure if it's a gimmick or something that actually works

For hob, i'm thinking about getting Rinnai RB-93UG.

The problem with the above setup is, you won't get as nice a price if you buy in a hood and hob set from same vendor?

Current thought
Rinnai RB-93UG hob + Electrolux EFC928SC hood

Considering
Electrolux EGT9637EG hob + Electrolux EFC928SC hood

Or

Rinnai RB-93UG hob + Rinnai RH-C91A-SSVR hood

I guess the main difference is the steam self clean feature that Electrolux has, and I can't see any such features in the Rinnai hood.

Any advice?

Thanks

i bought a steam gun from lazada to test, didnt work. grease is too sticky. U need a strong degreaser to really clean the hood. WHen water mix with dirt, ofcoz u will see the water turn yellowish but 90% will still b up there.
If u notice most of the hoods that promote auto clean, they never really do a full demo with the actual product to show u the inside before and after, only show u the yellowish water that flows down

If u only have the two options above then i would go with full set rinnai instead of mixing the brand

Okay, sure, I guess i'll get the rinnai set then, it's more like a heart thing that i have for the rinnai hob, it looks good

Another question, are we able to remove the hood fans for a deep clean? Like once in a year type of thing
