I’ve been using this hood for a couple of weeks now and it’s made a noticeable difference to my daily cooking. Before, my kitchen would get quite steamy and smells would linger, especially when frying. With this on, the air feels much fresher and it clears the steam quickly enough for my needs. I like that it’s simple—just press a button and it works, no overthinking. It’s also not as loud as I expected, so I can still have a conversation while cooking. For a basic model, it honestly does the job really well.
