Westpoint WEQ-6517.PMN 60cm Hood Cooker with 3-Speed Extraction

Our review

The Westpoint WEQ-6517.PMN is a 60cm kitchen hood cooker finished in black glass, built around twin motors that move up to 450 m³/hr of air. That airflow figure puts it in the range that suits everyday home cooking, where you want steam, smoke and frying odours pulled away without the fan sounding like a jet engine. The three-speed extraction lets you drop to a gentler setting for simmering and step up when you sear or deep-fry, and the LED lighting illuminates the hob below so you can actually see what is browning. It is a sensible pick for a modern kitchen with a standard 60cm hob, particularly if you cook most days but rarely run a commercial-style range. Before buying, measure the space above your hob and confirm your ducting route, since extraction performance depends heavily on how the hood is vented. Compare it with other 60cm twin-motor hoods on airflow, noise at each speed, and whether the black glass finish matches your cabinetry. Check the listing on Sokonia for the full details.
