Cooker Hoods come in four major groups. The Canopy Hood and Integrated Hood both have the facility for cupboard space above. They can be vented. Island Hoods should be considered a feature, as they will sit in the middle of a kitchen above an island. Chimney Hoods have a variety of sub-groups, but are the most common and will provide the most choice for styles and price points.

Canopy Hood: Discrete and designed for function rather than style these simple models will do the job of a Cooker Hood but are hidden away under a cupboard. This is a Smeg KSEG77X-1.

Integrated Hood: Similar to the Canopy Hood in that they are designed to be hidden behind cupboard doors, it allows for space to be used to its fullest. This is a Bosch DHL535BGB.

Chimney Hood: A Chimney Hood provides an attractive view point in your kitchen. They descend from the ceiling to make a feature or fit between two kitchen units. This is a 60cm Hotpoint HE6TIX.

Island Hood: In large kitchens the cooking area is often central which allows for an island cooker hood to feature as a focal point centrally and often, impressively.

Why We're Here
There are many self building and renovating resources. In our attempt to research our own projects we have discovered helpful people, fascinating websites, bargain suppliers and collated so much information that we thought should put it into some sort of order. 
So we designed an ever expanding  website that would help us, and hopefully help you. Whether you are a business, a home builder or a renovator, we would also love to hear from you with anything you would like to add to the site that might help others.
