My first cooker hood .... Long and intensive research went ahead. Decisive were ultimately the technical parameters, the very good value for money. Visually a real eye-catcher apart from the gold ornaments times. Queries were resolved in direct contact with the manufacturer concise, competent and friendly ... Installation and operation in acquisition were easy. That such a ventilation hood is not working silently should be clear. A perceived noise level which is more than within the scope at full power (Level3). Measure I could not. Normal conversation at any time possible. Two spots provide last light on the hotplate. Very good .... ;-) Merely setting the clock I alone can not get out. A quick phone call was enough. A new instruction manual on the net could solve my problem also. I am ultimately totally satisfied. Strong buy recommendation ...
