DKB5660HM 60 cm Chimney Hood with Hob2Hood

On the ad, it promises it talks to the aeg induction hob (which I’ve also bought) the hob and hood don’t always talk, you have to manually switch them both on, a real pain. Also when they do talk to each other the fan only runs at speed one, despite every ring boiling/smoking away, you then have to increase the fan speed manually. I recommend don’t believe the advert, because reality is fa4 removed from AEG sales pitch. Wouldn’t recommend hood or hob.

fitted my new extractor hood a few weeks ago and very happy with it, i took time to vent it to the outdoors, very very capable, when on full blast it blows my wife's plants about in the garden around 10 feet from the outside vent!
one of my gripes is the lights should be on the outer edge of the unit shining inwards as they can be quite irritating shining into your eyes while cooking and they are fairly bright.
the hood to hob works fairly well but i think the fan should have an over-run once the hob gets turned off, there is a facility to put the fan on to a low setting which runs for about 45 minutes or so, would be great if it was programmable as every kitchen and cooking situation is different.
another thing i feel would be very helpful would be hood to oven to extract cooking smells whilst using the grill for example, maybe this is available but not on my oven.
overall very happy with the look of the appliance and it is quite stylish, very easy to fit and not overly noisy even on full blast which i don't think would be needed very often.

Simple to use! Very very effective! I have always had other makes but this model exceeds them all! Wouldnt use any other make

Overall a great extractor fan - useful features, like the different speeds and ability to push a button and it runs for an hour then switches off - to cook then leave the kitchen and it come back nice and fresh having switched itself off automatically. The lowest fan speed is nice and quiet, ideal for gentle simmering and talking. It also has the hob to hood - but my hob isn't enabled for this so not able to test.
Twin lights are nice and bright, very useful when cooking and the chimney/height is very adjustable as I mounted it quite high as I am 6ft and wanted to see all four rings. I installed the hood myself - just two items; the bracket to attach the chimney to wall is right at the top - not great if your ceiling to wall is not exactly square (or you have coving) or to get it right up to the ceiling. Secondly all the fittings are torx head screws and while the fitting guide, included torx converter and drill template are excellent, trying to tighten the lower two screws is a challenge with larger hands! Don't let that put you off - overall a great unit and would definitely buy again.
