After I went to Korea I was looking for one of these and ordered this. It was cheaper than Home Depot for the same exact product and had more color options. I have used this for hot pot Korean bbq shabu shabu fried rice, it works very well. The smell after cooking disappears about a hour or two after I open windows as before we were not able to do it cuz of the smoke and steam. I didn’t even want to try. Very easy to turn on and plug in. Noise level is loud but you can still talk to the person next to you and across from you. Love the cool down mode as well. Fantastic product.

Works great if you don’t have a hood and replace your oven/stove and there aren’t many options for downdraft models avail. Only other alternative was to find a portable hood. Had a collection cup for oil. So far does what it should.

We use this portable hood whenever we do K-BBQ or sear steaks indoors. For something this small, it pulls in a lot more oil and smoke than I expected. The filter and oil cup actually catch a noticeable amount of grease, and the airflow is strong enough to keep our smoke alarm from going off during heavier cooking sessions. Without it, indoor BBQ would be a mess. Just be realistic about what it can and can’t do. It’s not going to capture everything—there’s still some smoke and grease that escape, especially when you’re cooking at high heat or have multiple burners going. That’s just the limitation of any tabletop unit. The aluminum filter is easy to remove and clean, and the oil cup fills slowly enough that you’re not constantly emptying it. Noise level is about what you’d expect from a small exhaust fan—not silent, but manageable. Pros: Actually, reduces smoke enough to prevent false fire alarms Catches a good amount of grease Easy-to-clean filter and oil collection cup Makes indoor K-BBQ or steak nights a lot more tolerable Cons: Can’t capture all smoke/oil (don’t expect a wall-mounted hood’s performance) Airflow is decent but not strong enough for very heavy cooking sessions Only two fan speeds Bottom line: Not perfect, but genuinely useful if you want to grill or sear indoors without filling your place with smoke. It does enough to justify the space and cost.

I love this exhaust fan. I cooked steaks on my induction, stove, top and a cast-iron pan. This fan sucks up all the smoke for me cooking on high heat. I highly recommend it to anybody that doesn’t have an exhaust fan above their stove.

The hood was powerful but very loud. The black filter screen was melting the very first time I sued it and smelled horribly even I kept the hood away from the stove. Would not recommend.

There’s no hepa filter, so yes it sucks up the smoke and it is strong but the smell is getting blown to the rear and yes it does trap oil. It does what it intended to do but there’s no odor removal.

The concept is great, but this model fell short. 1. The head is not adjustable, so the angle is fixed. If you are cooking in a pot, you will need to elevate it by placing it on something (I tried an upside-down bowl. 2. The suction - even on the high setting - is terrible! In appearance, you think the entire circle is taking in the smoke/steam from the pan; however, it's a much smaller circle. The unit needs to be right beside the pan/pot to even halfway work. 3. It is loud. I would not recommend this product and returned it after one use.

Useful! And beautiful color

Cooles Teil, hilft besser als gedacht in der Miniküche. Erkennt Topf und startet dann, was eigentlich eine coole Idee ist. Aber wenn man einen leeren Topf hinstellt. Ein Klick und ist wieder aus... Filter sehr leicht wechselbar. Alles gut.

Loud noise

Bastante funcional a máxima potencia.

Genial. Necesitábamos un sistema de extracción para la cocina eléctrica del pueblo. Ha sido todo un acierto, evita la condensación y reduce muchísimo los olores. Recomendable.

Saug gut den Kochdampf konzentriert ab. Kann ich nur empfehlen wenn man keine Abzugshaube hat.
