"Reasonable"
28 Dec 2017, Bevan M.
Product use: 6 months or more
Pros:
Extracts cooking odours well.
Was already installed when we bought the house, so it lasted for at least 30 months.
Takes 2 candle style lightbulbs
Cons:
Left it on for three hours accidentally when I left home and it had broken when I got home
A wee bit noisy but not deafening or anything.
Recommend it?
Maybe, it depends on what you're after.
