Tested This Is The Best Extractor Hood With Exhaust Air

It can be done via exhaust air, where the cooking air is sucked directly outside But also via recirculation, where the cooking air is filtered.

You also have different forms of extraction, such as a wall-mounted extractor hood, a hanging extractor hood, an extractor hood in a kitchen cupboard or an integrated extractor in an induction hob The Consumers' Association tests wall-mounted extractor hoods in exhaust air position and in recirculation position for, among other things, operation, ease of use and noise.

The products that are tested are bought in the store, so that they are not pre-manipulated by manufacturers New models are tested as soon as possible after introduction.

How fast that is varies per product The Best of the Test is the product with the best test judgment, which is readily available.

This can also be an older model, because a newer model is not always better The Best Buy is the product with the best value for money.

The stated price of a product is the lowest retail price at the moment as far as known by the Consumers' Association But prices can vary from day to day.
