Best chimney cooker hood

Updated: 22 October 2026

You want a chimney cooker hood from this amazon.co.uk set, and a 5.0 from three reviews is sitting next to a 4.4 from thousands. Best here is a condition: the hob width, whether you can duct outside, and what is actually in the box. This page names who each hood in this set is for, and who should skip it. The [chimney hood comparison](/hub/fireplaces-and-stoves/chimney-hood) is the full table from 19 October 2026. Peter F. read the listings. We did not run a lab test, and Which? scores are not these products. A qualifying purchase can earn a commission at no extra cost to you.

Best when you can duct a standard 60 cm hob

If the hob is 60 cm and a short duct to an outside wall is realistic, two listings carry the decision. The COMFEE' KWH-PYRA17B-60 was £49.99, with 400 m³/h and 67 dB printed, a 4.4 from 609 reviews, and the carbon filter extra. That is the best value in this set when you will duct, you accept a separate filter you may never fit, and 67 dB is tolerable because the room is not one open space. The CIARRA CBCS6201 was £79.99 on the same day. The title says 404 m³/h and the specification says 370 m³/h. Carbon filters and a UK plug are stated in the box. Treat the CIARRA as the top pick for a ducted 60 cm hob when the plug and the filters matter more than the lowest price. The checks that come first live on the chimney hood buying guide.

Best when the flat must recirculate

Recirculation is the constraint, not a prize. Moisture still returns to the room, and in England a recirculating hood on its own does not meet Approved Document F. The filter is included with the CIARRA CBCS6201, the black CBCB6201, the CBCS9102, the CBCS6765C, the FIREGAS, and the COMFEE' KWH-CH60A17EM12S2-UK. The COMFEE' KWH-CH60A17EM12S2-UK was £69.99 and does include filters, and it is the wrong one to call best: 3.0 from two reviews that contradict each other. The FIREGAS is the recirculating option when the printed 47 dB matters more than a 400 m³/h title. The AEG DKB5660HM ventilation field says Exhaust. The ducted or recirculating cooker hood page sets the Part F condition.

Best for a 90 cm hob

A 90 cm hob is outside the 60 cm cluster. This set has two 90 cm listings. The CIARRA CAS9201A was £111.99 with 370 m³/h printed, and the carbon filters are separate. The item-type line says 60 cm while the title says 90 cm. Skip the CAS9201A if you need the filter in the box. The CIARRA CBCS9102 was £195.48, prints 709 m³/h and 650 m³/h, includes the carbon filters, and claims Wi-Fi. Neither hood fits a 90 cm hob that has only a 60 cm gap between units. That limit is on the 60 cm or 90 cm cooker hood page.

When the five-star AEG is the pick

The AEG DKB5660HM is not the best chimney cooker hood in this set because it shows 5.0. Three reviews produced that score, a thin sample next to 609 on the black COMFEE' pyramid. The price on 19 October 2026 was £272. The airflow to quote as a pair is 779 m³/h intensive and 175–352 m³/h on the normal settings. Hob2Hood is the reason to pay this much, if your hob can use that link. The listing names a ducting kit. A reviewer said the 150 mm pipe was not included. Recirculation is not confirmed. Skip the AEG if you need carbon filters in the box, or if you are choosing from star ratings alone. Prices move.

Common questions

Which hood is the sensible pick if I can duct a 60 cm hob outside?
The CIARRA CBCS6201 at £79.99, if you want carbon filters and a stated UK plug in the box and you will quote 370 m³/h from the specification as well as 404 m³/h from the title. The COMFEE' KWH-PYRA17B-60 at £49.99 is the best value when the filter can stay a separate item and 67 dB is acceptable. The 12,710 reviews on the CIARRA are shared with the black CBCB6201, including the same two review texts, so the count is not two separate proofs.
Which listing is the wrong one to call best because the reviews are too thin?
The COMFEE' KWH-CH60A17EM12S2-UK. It was £69.99 and it does include carbon filters, and the score is 3.0 from two reviews that contradict each other. The AEG’s 5.0 from three reviews is also too thin to crown a winner, even though the sample is slightly larger. Review count is a condition, not a trophy.
What should I buy for a 90 cm hob?
Choose between the CIARRA CAS9201A at £111.99 and 370 m³/h, with filters separate and a 60 cm item-type line that conflicts with the 90 cm title, and the CIARRA CBCS9102 at £195.48, with 709 m³/h and 650 m³/h both printed, filters included, and a Wi-Fi claim. Skip the CAS if the filter must be in the box. Skip the CBCS9102 if you will not use the higher stated airflow.
What if I need carbon filters in the box?
Use a listing that states them: CIARRA CBCS6201, CBCB6201, CBCS9102, CBCS6765C, the FIREGAS, or the COMFEE' KWH-CH60A17EM12S2-UK. Leave the CAS9201A, the CAS6201A, and the COMFEE' pyramid and angled models if the filter is a second purchase you might forget. The AEG does not confirm a recirculation filter.
Is the AEG the best because it has five stars?
No. Five stars from three reviews is a small sample. The AEG DKB5660HM at £272 is the pick when Hob2Hood and the normal band of 175–352 m³/h matter to you, and when you can buy a 150 mm pipe if the carton matches the reviewer who found it missing. Intensive 779 m³/h is the burst, not the everyday rate. The ventilation field says Exhaust.
