While on this topic.... anybody know where 金雅典 went? I remember many years back, they had a showroom i Yohan. They make probably some of the prettiest Chinese range hood ever. In my old place we had a black enamel dimpled finished Athen's range hood, look super nice.

Nowadays? Those Sakura, Pacific whatever, looks sooo bad. Not like I have a fancy kitchen.... but in terms of look, they are definately a step backwards. Where have 金雅典 went???

if you have powerful suction fun, make sure you have some window opened when operating.  Otherwise, vaccum may build up inside the house.  A builder told me there is building code to restrict the fan suction power.  if exceed, the kitchen needs a ventilation hole to balance the air pressure.

Pacific or Sakura are ok. Asian cooking needs Asian range hood.

Don't believe on self-clean beause oils can get inside the range hood, therefore my parents will take the thing apart once every few months and lots of grease get stucked inside.

Find one that is quiet, easy to remove the parts to clean are the most important.
