Range hood - Which one is recommended?

Hello dear community,

now one more question (probably not the last) about the range hoods:

So far we wanted to have the DÅTID HW570 for 499,- €. When I flipped through the "special catalog" for kitchen electrical appliances yesterday, I noticed that the Uppdrag for 179,- € (60 cm wide) has a (slightly) stronger motor (180 W), is quieter (60dB) and has a higher fan capacity (587 m³/h) than the DÅTID HW570. This one has a 175 W motor, 67 dB and a fan capacity of 572 m³/h and costs more than twice as much. Well, it is 20 cm wider, but can someone explain to me where the differences might lie? The pure numbers first of all speak for the UPPDRAG.

And then one more visual question: How much space should there be between the range hood and the wall cabinets? If I chose the DÅTID HW570 I would have "only" 10 cm space to the wall cabinets, with the UPPDRAG accordingly 20 cm. Is there a rule of thumb or something like that?

Thanks!

How wide is your cooktop?

Is the hood used in exhaust or recirculation mode?

Distance: the hood should at least be as wide as your cooktop, if the distance to the cooktop is correct, the lateral distance only matters for aesthetics, but 10 cm should be enough.

The price difference: you can place smaller spice jars on top of the DÅTID and some use the side rods for their ladles, skimmers, etc., because of this and the quantities produced, the material usage, manufacturing effort, and thus the price are determined. With a "stylish" kitchen, the DÅTID looks better to me than the 0815 UPPDRAG, but taste is subjective.

The cooktop has a standard width: 60 cm.

The extractor hood is to operate in recirculation mode initially, possibly also in exhaust air mode later... But for now, recirculation.

Then both hoods are considered from the width perspective.

For exhaust operation, the following is important:

Room volume, floor area x room height in m³, the hood should be able to transport the room air outside 10 times per hour. By the way, Ikea specifies the performance of its hoods according to EN 61591, which corresponds to 1.5 m flexible hose including a 90° bend, exactly 30 cm hose - 90° bend - 1 m hose.
For some suppliers, the performance specifications are free-blowing, meaning the suction performance is measured directly at the motor outlet.

For exhaust, also consider this: calculate a performance loss per meter of hose of about 12 - 18%, per cross-section change about 15 - 20%, and per meter of hose 20 - 25%. Sometimes it doesn't make sense to operate a cooker hood as exhaust.

Also important, if you have gas, a chimney, or any open fireplace (gas boiler), consult a chimney sweep beforehand.
