Kitchen HOOD

There are so many brands in the market, Electrolux, Elba, Rubine, Tuscani, Faber, Teka, Fotile, Whirlpool, Rinnai, Cornell, Bosch, Tellini, Lebenstill, Leben, Fujioh, Ikka, Pacific, Pacifica, Vees and many more. So which one of them is the best? Here is a discussion after reading and doing your own research, you decide which is the best.

Most end users will think that a good hood is a hood with strong suction power but that is not 100% true.
A good kitchen hood should have :
1) A good filter system with oil cup
2) Easy to clean & maintain
3) Reasonable strong suction power (1000m3/h and above)
4) Low noise level

1) A good filter system with oil cup


Here is a comparison between aluminum mesh filters vs pyramid shape filters

I will update more info everyday, do not have time to explain everything in one day.

I looking to buy a hood for my mum. She always cook with chinese dishes, so there is a lot of oil and smoke here and there.

Please advise me a reasonable good hood so that she dont need to mop the floor everytime she finish cooing.

Thanks

Don't dream of no need mop if cooking Chinese dishes. Even fried egg floor still get oily. I using fortile I know.

If that is the case, then what is the point to buy hood?

   

It Reduce the oil and smell when doing heavy cooking. Can't stop. If I fry stuff I will close off my wet kitchen. If anyone tell you can stop smell and oil they pulling your leg.

I see. So could you please advise me a model for my mum?

Also, how the kitchen vent working? is the air it blow outside is pure air or air mix with oil?

Thanks

You got to try and also compare. No hood will suck all the oil and smell. Fotile is good but not the best as some marketer here boost about.

Air blow out is mixture if air and bit of oil. The internal hood will be oily and need to clean regular if cook frequent.

planning to purchase hood and hob, but i think most models cater for LPG. which ones are good for piped-in natural gas?

Not too sure, wasn't my concern when I purchasing the stove. Someone did mention rinnai. You can try this model and ask the seller.

* WHILE STOCK LASTS & "first-come-first-serve basis" Sorry for no reserve and KIV stock !!

just bought my kitchen hob and hood from 18 Electrical Shop in pj two weeks ago. they charged me rm3140 after much negotiation (and had to pay cash) . next day i went to another shop just to ask for price and they gave me rm2700! the same model! without negotiating!! i was pissed so i went back to 18 Electrical shop and asked them nicely why is theirs so expensive so the fella who sold it to me (alvin) said that if im able to produce a receipt at rm2700, they will refund me the difference -.- so i said ok fine i asked my sister (who is moving house also) to buy the exact same model. took her receipt and gave it to alvin, and he said he will ask his superior first (Pls note that he already agreed to refund me the difference initially when i questioned him).

then i got a call from him supposed superior, shouting at me and scolding me saying that if i buy sth expensive from pasar malam will i be able to get a refund???and didnt give me a chance to speak at all!!! omg i was shocked!! how can anyone be so rude wtf

even though i do not believe that this 'superior' is indeed alvin's superior, i think this shop is a total hoax!! never going to buy from this shop already.

GONNA BAN TOTALLY 18 ELECTRICAL SHOP. NOT ONLY FOR ITS PRICE, BUT THE RUDE AND ROWDY SALESPEOPLE THERE. WITH SUCH MANNERS, DO NOT EXPECT AFTER-SALES SERVICE FROM THEM!

Hi,

Would like to ask if electrolux or Tuscani [ITALY] cooker hood and hob are worthy to buy?
Is the service good if they got broken?

Thanks.

That's a pro-cook there (wo)manning 3 burners simultaneously whereas my wifey can just manage 1 burner only.
