Teka is a German company. If you're looking for an upscale option, try Kuppersbusch (also owned by Teka).

Need advice. For condo dwellers, do they normally allow drilling hole through wall for kitchen ducting ?

I thought condos didn't allow ducted range hoods, only recirculating?

I can't remember where I read about Malaysian condos specifically (perhaps it was on the previous kitchen hood/hob thread that's been deleted). Different condos would have different rules about this. Have you asked your condo management?

UPDATES:
60 cm rangehood : My worry about hood is solved. I am going for either Teka or Rinnai. I have had a look at Teka model at Harvey Norman last week. Price is RM 750.00 and after discount will be RM 639. I feel it's a good deal. I will be checking out Rinnai at their showroom this weekend.
60 cm gas hob on glass : I was excited to find that Fisher & Paykel had exactly what I wanted (Gas hob on glass and IT IS 60 CM!!)  However, after enquiring I was told that this model is not available for Malaysian market.    sweat.gif  sweat.gif 
I did find few other brands that have 60 cm hob but their replies were almost the same : Not available for Malaysian market ....  Does that mean, nobody in Malaysia use 60 cm gas hob?  I did find the vitoceramic ones available in 60 cm but highly priced and doesn't suit my budget.  Following are the brands I have scouted for 60 cm gas hob on glass:

1. DeLonghi
2. Teka
3. Rinnai
4. Electrolux
5. Bosch
6. Smeg
7. Ariston
8. Tuscani
9. Fisher & Paykel

I am not sure if I am exhausted of options or if there are other brands that I have not looked at. Appreciate your input here. Most probably my KC installation will start in January 2015 and I would like to make sure that the important appliances are in place.

Typically, goods aren't marketed towards a region because just not worth it for them to sell a particular line or model if it doesn't suit the market. Asian cooking needs are wholly different from Western, we may not prefer the glass look because it needs to look spotless, etc.

I don't doubt you can actually get the F&P gas on glass hob you want. It just means you'll have to find a supplier or dealer that can get it for you (for a price, of course) or maybe that you'll have to buy it yourself and have it shipped. Also, warranties might be voided or tricky to claim this way.

It'll probably be too much of a hassle. Since your deadline is coming up soon (time will fly), I suggest getting your next best option.
