What is the CHOICE Expert Rating?
Good points

Good Points

  • The light globe is very easy to replace.
Bad points

Bad Points

  • Fan speed can only be controlled by how far the sliding part of the hood is pulled out; i.e. can’t have low fan on with the sliding part fully pulled out, for instance.
  • Lights don’t provide particularly good visibility over the cooking area.
