I’ve been using this 52cm integrated cooker hood in my rented flat for a couple of weeks now, mainly for everyday cooking after work. My kitchen is quite small, so the slim design fits perfectly into the cabinet and doesn’t feel bulky at all.
Most evenings I’m doing simple meals like frying chicken, cooking pasta, or making breakfast, and on the lower to medium fan speeds it does a good job keeping steam and cooking smells under control. It’s especially noticeable when frying — the air clears much faster than before. The LED lights are also really helpful when cooking at night.
Installation was straightforward as well — I managed the easy install myself without needing any professional help, which is great if you’re renting.
The only reason for 4 stars is that when I cook something heavier like steak or multiple dishes at once, I do need to use the highest setting, and it gets a bit noisy. But for day-to-day use in a small kitchen, this 52cm integrated cooker hood works really well and is definitely worth it.
