I'm looking for slanted/angled cooker hood (recirculation only, cause it's a condo). Currently, I'm comparing between these 3 brands (feel free to recommend me other brand if it's better). After this I will pair my hob with the same brand as the hood.

My concern is on the suction power, do not have much knowledge on cooker hood so not sure what else I should look at.

For the experts (especially @zheilwane), which one do you recommend?

1. [LIVINOX] LCH-STONE-90BL
2. [RUBINE] RCH-MARK-90BL
3. [ELBA] ETERNO EH-E9121ST (I realised there's many angled/designed hood under Elba, saw this as one of the most popular model in Shopee)

Thanks for the info. How do I know which model has how many layer of charcoal filter? Cause it does not say from the website technical specification. Or all Livinox hood comes with double layer? And boss, do you sell it?

Guys, is it easy to DIY install hood? Recirculated hood, no need ducting. If I'm not mistaken, I have to measure, drill and mount a plate and then mount the hood on it, correct?

Hope you guys dont mind silly question haha. Future user of Livinox Mica here (yet to install)

What is the better power configuration for hood yeah?

1. Power socket directly behind the hood, covered by the hood box (not sure what it's called), ~6ft high. 24/7 powered/standby. To turn on/off the hood, switch on at the built in power buttons.

2. Power socket beside hood box, can see short length of wire coming out from hood to the socket. 24/7 powered/standby. To turn on/off the hood, switch on at the built in power buttons. can be switched off at socket if required.

3. Power socket covered behind hood box, linked with switch (~4-5ft high) within reach easily. To turn on hood, flip the switch and then turn on at built in power button (double job).

(1) looks cleaner, but 24/7 powered on.
(2) can be switched off if required and less wiring required than (3), but can see cable and plugtop
(3) No exposed wiring, can switch on/off easily but double task to turn on/off hood and more wiring job

Which configuration is normal/common/better yeah guys? Future first time hood user here. Appreciate your input, thanks in advance!
