Extracting hobs..... seen this?

[EverHopefull]

Hi, i have been looking at the Bora hobs and had convinced myself that they were a perfect solution to a kitchen problem. Now I have seen this new item from Ikea and wondered if anyone else had?

FÖRDELAKTIG Induction hob/integrated extractor. The spec looks ok but the price is temptingly low. Who makes these for Ikea, anyone know?

They suck........ well they must do to extract that way.

 

I would be interested to know how noisy they were.

[Mr Punter]

Whirlpool used to do a lot of Ikea stuff.

here is a different one, but very pricy

I fitted a good few posh one's of these over the years. They take up most of the cab space below them, and i used to have to duct them out under the floor with 150mm ducting. They were a pita to fit them. Seemed to work ok. The posh one's used to cost several thousand. Basically, they are a downdraft extractor.

This will almost certainly be one of the numerous italian contract manufacturers. Typically Airforce, Faber or Elica.

 

Wont be as good but at that price.....

What happens when you spill a pan of rice down it?

[Ed Davies]

Interesting but would need careful thought about the routing of the extract pipes or the positioning of the recirculation outlet.

Most of the IKEA appliances are manufactured by Whirlpool or Electrolux, induction hobs share a lot of components with the basic branded models.

You then pick it out the filter ?

I downloaded the manual and it gives options of external venting or recirculation. I did find a video online of some mad looking chef using one of these dubbed in German. The vortex it creates looks pretty impressive!

What happens with external ducting to outside, don't you end up with  effectively  a long U bend that can fill with water?

They look great and the obvious choice for properties with MVHR, I'd have thought. Did have a wee look months ago and you can get other high end brands on eBay and through German sellers for 40-50% the price of the Bora's units.

They look really clever 

We have an all singing all dancing Italian thing in ours Looks great Sucks live a Hoover 

Downside is it sounds like a jumbo jet when switched on full 

Salesmen didn’t mention the noice levels 

Just how quickly it clears the room of smells and steam 

and people ✈️
