Product review (5 stars): Italian Design Wins Again
One of the most spectacularly well-designed appliances we've ever owned.  When not in use it disappears, and even when in use (sliding out towards  you to offer greater surface/uptake/vent area over your stove or cooktop) it's still nearly invisible.  The two 50w halogen lights are as bright as you could possibly wish, and the 3 fan speed choices and an auto-shutoff timer are nice touches.

We  live in a Manhattan co-op and venting anything to the outside is a complete non-starter.  That was a primary attraction of this for us; it has two 1" thick carbon filters about the diameter of a small dinner plate, which does an amazing  job of filtering air that then (by default) goes back into your kitchen, exhausting at the top of the cabinet it's installed in.

My only caveat is that the installation instructions are  written in ESL, but there's a handy (800) number which I called twice and they were extemely responsive.  Installation is something you'll only have to do once every 20 years or so, so don't let that deter you.

If it's not beyond your budget, look no further; this is the hood you want.
