My ensuite and loo are finished at last and my thoughts are turning to kitchens, spurred on by the £95 ex display kitchen I bought from MFI
There seem to be three types of cooker hood
- Pad to catch the grease. Yuk
- Extract to outside. Sounds much better. c£150
- Automatic extract to outside. c£900
I would like an automatic one, which senses something (heat, moisture, movement ???) and turns itself on and off accordingly, but £700 is far too much to pay for a couple of sensors
How difficult would it be to buy a manual extract cooker hood and retrofit it with the sensors? I have no experience at all of electronics so dont know if I am asking for the moon or not
Also ...
Does anyone have comments on what design (shape, colour) of unit is good. The thin flat bar ones look to me like they are designed to take the eye out but maybe I am worrying unnecessarily. I am not a fan of daily polishing so maybe not stainless steel - I want something which will look good (not perfect) if it gets just an occasional wipe down
