Description
The TKCH29B is a 90cm chimney hood in black, built to the same simple pattern as the 60cm model but sized for wider hobs and range-style cookers. It is a sensible specification where the priority is covering the full cooking width at a modest price.
The extra width is the point. A 60cm canopy over a 90cm hob leaves the outer pans uncovered, and the steam from them escapes into the room rather than being drawn upwards. Matching the hood to the hob keeps the whole surface under the capture area, which matters most when the cooker is in regular use with several pans going at once.
Three extraction speeds are selected by mechanical push buttons. They remain reliable with wet or greasy hands, which is more than can be said for a touch panel mid-cook, and there is no glass surface on the control strip to keep clean. The quoted maximum noise level is 59dB at the top speed, so the lower settings can be left running quietly through a meal. Two LED lamps light the hob below.
Ducted and recirculating installation are both supported. Physical dimensions are 90.0cm wide by 47.5cm deep, with a telescopic chimney adjusting between 57.3cm and 95.3cm for different ceiling heights. Net weight is 8.5kg, supply is 220-240V, 50-60Hz, and the warranty runs for two years with registration.
