good price for a quality device

I don't think so

A comment

We are satisfied not only with the quality of work, but also with the appearance of the hood. The model looks very neat and small. Everything was done as it should be. I would give it 5 for quality. The traction is amazing. There is a backlight and three operating speeds. Everyone is happy!

pros

design, reliable operation

Minuses

To connect the hood without outlet to the ventilation, I had to buy additional carbon filters

A comment

I chose a hood without any bells and whistles and a simple design. After a long search I purchased this model. Simple, with the most necessary functionality. All declared functions work properly. I also chose this model because even the controls are hidden at the bottom, which does not spoil the appearance of the hood. Since it was not possible to bring the pipe into the shaft, we had to buy carbon filters separately; it turns out that they are included with this type of hood; filters are not included additionally. At the same time, even with a carbon filter, the hood has decent draft.

pros

price, quality, ease of management

Minuses

A comment

When buying a hood for my parents, I looked at the Krona models, since I myself use an inclined model from this company and am very pleased. I settled on the bella model because of its price-quality ratio. In my opinion, the best option for an inexpensive kitchen. The model has simple controls, the first time I explained to my friends what and how. Mom says that she copes well with odors and the lighting is pleasant.

pros

performs the hood function 100%.

Very pleased with our choice.
Powerful hood and nice design compared to other models seen in stores. There is no strong noise, the buttons are convenient for changing speeds, and there is a pleasant backlight. Everything looks reliable and of high quality. 2nd place

Pros and cons of hoods with carbon filters

You have already noted one of the advantages of charcoal hoods for the kitchen: polluted air is not removed from the room, but is cleaned , so this equipment can guarantee you greater safety compared to other models.

To dispel all the myths about the quality of work of carbon filter systems, we invite you to familiarize yourself with other advantages of this technology:

One of the main features is compactness and ease of installation due to the small dimensions of coal hoods. Such equipment will not only become an assistant in everyday life, but will also help emphasize the harmony of the interior and the exquisite taste of the hostess. You no longer have to look for ways to disguise air ducts or plan the placement of furniture with maximum convenience for installing exhaust devices.
Since this type of hood does not block the ventilation duct, the room will maintain natural circulation of clean air : this is especially important if you are used to gathering in the kitchen with the whole family.
Unlike most hoods, coal models do not require additional air supply for full operation.
The cost of such equipment, despite the quality and functionality, remains low due to savings on materials. Many people believe that purchasing filters periodically will cost more: even when purchasing a high-power hood, the overall savings will allow you to stock up on filters for 10 years.
Unlike hoods with an air vent, which must be connected to the ventilation shaft, coal models can be placed absolutely anywhere in the kitchen , providing only access to the electrical network.
Another significant advantage of installing such equipment is the ability to be built into kitchen furniture . You get not only a stylish, but also an ergonomic design of the work area.

Hoods of this type are universal . This means that you don't have to guess how to match the hood to the style of the kitchen or its colors.

All charcoal hoods have a simple and laconic design , which, by the way, is ideal for even the smallest kitchens.

When searching for a suitable model, you will be able to note the variety of sizes of such equipment.

There is an opinion that the use of carbon hoods is inconvenient due to the need to search for special filters strictly from the manufacturer. In fact, almost any type of carbon filter has analogues, and many of them are characterized by superior quality.

If you doubt the better performance of hoods with a recirculation cleaning mode, then you may also be mistaken, since their effectiveness will depend on power, and not on cleaning features . In addition, the beneficial effect will depend on the frequency of filter changes and on proper care of the equipment.

Tip: to purchase the right model, study the data sheet: it indicates for which rooms the available power is sufficient. You can calculate the required productivity yourself: multiply the room volume by 12 and 1.3.

Of course, even the highest quality hood of this type will not be able to clean the air 100% of unpleasant odors. However, with the operation of a filter cleaning system, it will be easier to achieve maximum comfort . Another bonus is the solution to the problem of all odors reaching the neighbors through the ventilation duct.

The only negative that may affect your final choice is high energy consumption . However, hoods with carbon filters do not affect the temperature of the kitchen during operation, unlike models with open ventilation that allow hot or cold air to enter from the street.

You don't have to turn on the air conditioner or heaters to restore the microclimate in the room - and this is also a significant advantage.

pros

It pulls out really well. The main thing is not to forget to turn it on when you just start cooking, otherwise I usually remember when the whole house is in smoke. But if you turn it on in time, it’s perfect. And it fit perfectly into a 60 cm closet, although we were scared that it wouldn’t fit

Minuses

Noisy, even talking next to her is difficult. Well, what can you do - powerful...

Problems with the sensor: it turns on by itself. Waiting for a service center technician is a problem. They replaced the motor, but everything remained the same. The remote control cannot be changed separately. After the repairman left, it turned out that the check valve had disappeared somewhere.

A comment

convenient to install - we hung it ourselves, it’s not very convenient that the power cord is short, it pulls well, all modes work perfectly, it’s noisy only in modes 3 and 4, but not critical, bright backlight. I don’t know if it pulls 1000 cubic meters at maximum, but it pulls out tobacco smoke.

pros

Quiet, beautiful, powerful.

Minuses

Didn't notice.

A comment

I installed it yesterday. I tried all the modes - I'm happy with everything. At first speed it is almost inaudible. The air duct was made rigid 150 mm, without using corrugation. Pleased with the 5 year warranty on the motor. The touch buttons respond well to pressing. There is a timer and a mode where it turns on for 10 minutes every hour. Overall I'm happy.

I purchased a hood for which 2 of the 4 declared modes do not work.
The hood was purchased because it had a silent mode, but it doesn’t work. And so, the lighting is convenient. The hood itself is beautiful. It’s just that the manufacturer’s defect and the seller’s absolute ignorance of the problem spoiled the whole impression. 5th place

The hood is good, but I would really like the Belarusian guys to design the motor to be quieter. After all, it’s a household hood, not an industrial one.

pros

It’s hard to say, since I’ve been using it for several days, and so far I see mostly disadvantages. The advantages are probably the appearance, ease of operation, fairly convenient lighting (I will replace the lamps with LED or energy-saving ones, since the base is standard). We bought into the high power ratings (800), because... The house is old, the kitchen is 16 sq.m. and the ceilings are 3.5. At the first speed, the paper sticks to the filter. Those. the hood is pulling. How strong in reality I don’t know. I don’t yet see much difference in air purity with and without it. The noise level in the kitchen has become much worse, but the hob surface is well lit - that’s a plus! This hood is so simple in design that it is difficult to write anything more about it.

Minuses

We use it in circulation mode. VERY noisy, I don’t believe it lives up to the advertised noise level. At the first speed you can still somehow endure it, at the second you can no longer hear the TV at normal volume, at the third the hood howls like an airplane - it’s about to fly... The third speed causes headaches for all members of the seven, even in the room next to the kitchen. We didn't have a hood before, this was our first purchase experience. But everyone has friends. And I have never heard such a terrible noise from anyone’s hood, even in turbo mode - my friend turns it on when she smokes, because I can’t stand the smell of cigarettes. So, I’m sitting next to you and I don’t smell smoke at all!!! Not to mention, I hear virtually no noise. And when our “miracle” is turned on, odors fly throughout the entire apartment, even stronger than without a hood (maybe with “original” filters this drawback will be eliminated). The grease filter does not fit well into the hood - there are many gaps. The power cord is very short - it was difficult to connect it by running the socket up onto the wall. The instructions are very uninformative, general rather crooked phrases about nothing, and about all models of hoods of this brand. It was difficult to figure it out. We’ll see how it removes grease over time, but for now I’m disappointed with the hood.

A comment

I have long dreamed of a good hood... maybe that’s why it’s especially sad to see this “miracle” in my kitchen now.
The most important thing is that I bought it inadvertently, confusing it with a well-known brand!!! In fact, I was misled. I don’t believe that it was made in Italy, and the brand, as stated, is German. It's too clumsily made. A metal cone-shaped trough with a motor... We should have studied it first and realized that we were buying a pig in a poke. The brand can “dissolve into thin air.” One hope is for the simplicity of the design, in which there is a possibility that you won’t have to contact service for a long time. If it were not mechanics, but electronics, I would be more worried. I haven’t used it with “original” carbon filters yet, since the supplier brought “universal” ones instead and assured that they are even better. As a result, when you turn on the hood, the universal filter flies inside the hood, and all odors successfully fly up from the chimney and spread throughout the apartment. I ordered “original” filters, I’m waiting... There is hope that the situation with odors and noise will improve as soon as we install the “original” filters. 7th place

I'll start with the appearance. The hood looks small and neat. It immediately caught our eye among the other models in the store. I liked the quality of the stainless steel, fingerprints are almost invisible and this stainless steel looks expensive and beautiful. The buttons are pleasant to press and operate smoothly without any problems. I licked it inside the hood and was surprised that even inside everything was neatly done (the wires were neatly secured, nothing was loose or hanging). The hood fits very tightly to the wall when you install it, due to the relief on the back wall. I would like to note that even the back wall is made of high-quality processed metal, which looks reliable and beautiful. The hood works great! Powerful draft, all odors go into the hood and do not spread throughout the apartment. The sound of the running engine is comfortable. At speed 3 we turn it on quietly, there is no noise or hum. To summarize, I want to say that the model is very, very worthy. Now with this model we don’t know grief!

pros

nice appearance, good quality, easy operation

Minuses

fingerprints remain on the case

A comment

We were looking for a hood of exactly this design, we chose this model, and we don’t regret it. Everything works great, the buttons are very pleasant to press. I wash the grease filters in the dishwasher and wash them well. At first, there were difficulties in cleaning stainless steel from fingerprints and grease, but then I found a good product on the Internet and now there are no problems. There is no strong noise. My hood almost always works at 2nd speed. This is quite enough. I'm glad I made my choice. A good option for such a low cost.

pros

price, quality, simple operation

Minuses

wash only with a smooth, lint-free cloth

A comment

We bought it in a hurry to equip a new kitchen, we thought we’d take something cheaper for the first time.
But in the end we are satisfied and are not going to change. It copes well with odors in an 8-meter long kitchen. The backlight is bright, we use it as additional lighting even when we are not using the hood for its intended purpose. The buttons have never stuck or broken, although I read reviews from other brands and saw that such problems happen. The only thing I recommend is not to wipe with a rag with lint, lint remains on the hood, the first time I had to peel it off, now I wash it with a separate rag)

pros

Convenient button placement, quiet operation at first speed,
beautiful appearance

Minuses

noisy at 2nd and 3rd speed

A comment

Well worth the money. You can buy. Until it breaks)

pros

convenient button placement

Minuses

very noisy

A comment

Since this is my first hood, I can’t say in comparison how noisy it is. But when I cooked with it for the first time, turning it on at full power, I even got a headache from the noise. Now I'm used to it. It pulls well, backlight, 3 modes, in mode 1 it doesn’t provide any special convenience, but nevertheless it pulls well.

pros

— Appearance (nothing extra) — Price!!!!
— The noise is within normal limits (I use speed 2 more often)

— Easy to install (thanks to detailed description)

A comment

Before purchasing the Krona hood, I had a hood from a Russian manufacturer, because of which I had to call a repairman 3 times.
My husband suggested that I finally replace it; our choice leaned towards Krone. I hope she will continue to please us. Thanks for the quality!

Installation features

As mentioned above, installation of filter hoods is much easier and faster than products with an air duct.

To begin with, select a location for the hood above the stove. Recommended height: for gas stoves: 75-85 cm; for electric stoves: 65-75 cm.
In the selected location, the housing is hung on the wall (or on the ceiling - if the model is island) using bolts.

That's it - no laying of air ducts, installation of grilles, installation of decorative cabinets is required.

List of models without exhaust and models with two modes (exhaust/recirculation)

Since the number of models is quite large, we will give only a few options, as an example.

Models with recirculation only are the least common, and not available from every manufacturer. They are usually cheap; there are few expensive products in this category.

Several examples ( indicate the manufacturer, one of the models, and the price in rubles

Electrolux (EFP 6411 - about 4600 rubles).
Cata (F 2050 – about 3500).
Pyramida (WH 10-50 – about 2100).
Kaiser (A 6413 – about 10300).
Faber (Flexa HIP A 50 - about 5400).
Elica (Concorde F/50 – about 3000).
Perfelli (DNS 6521 - about 16500).
Falmec (Mimosa Parete 60,600 – about 20,000).
Siemens (LI 28030 - about 17500).
Ardo (Basic F60 - about 3300).
Hansa (OKC 5662 – about 7100).

A considerable selection of filtration models is available from Cata, Electrolux, Pyramida, Kaiser, Falmec.

Models with 2 modes (diversion and recirculation) are more common. Almost every manufacturer produces such products (some brands have more such models, others have fewer). They can be distinguished by their operating mode, which indicates “exhaust/recirculation” or “exhaust/recirculation”.

Excellent quality! I climbed inside the hood, everything was done very well. The metal of the case was also pleasing. The thickness is sufficient for the hood to have the required rigidity. The size of the hood fits perfectly between the cabinets. The hood is painted matte white. The power of the hood is very good. You can see how the steam enters the hood immediately. There is not much noise. Everything works reliably. We recommend.

pros

Design, price-quality

Minuses

carbon filters need to be purchased

A comment

Satisfied with the hood. The price-quality ratio is just about it. Nice design compared to other models on the market. The control panel is simple, perhaps the buttons would be more convenient, but I liked this design better. We installed it ourselves, everything is clearly written in the instructions. Grease filters can be washed. Coal ones were purchased separately, because We use it in recirculation mode. In general, everyone is happy.

pros

durability

Minuses

for this price, I think they don't exist

A comment

Our hood has been working for us every day for at least an hour, maximum three to four hours a day, for the past 5 years. And not a single failure or problem. At the same time, the quality of work is excellent. It even gets rid of smoke quickly. There is no particular noise during operation (our hood is connected to the shaft). It works mainly at speed 2, which is enough for the eyes. The quality is visible even in the assembly. Everything is done conscientiously. All weld seams are very neat. We bought this model at one time for only 4 thousand rubles.

pros

compactness, good performance, quality parts

Minuses

A comment

An excellent option for such a low cost. Fits very well into our kitchen of 11 sq.m. It looks very compact and does an excellent job of eliminating odors. Looks beautiful with a white oven. The noise from operation is not annoying, acceptable. A high-quality model, we recommend purchasing.

pros

It serves its purpose perfectly! Good appearance!. The power of the hood is more than enough for a kitchen of 10 sq. m. Aluminum “reusable” filter (I washed it and it was like new again). The presence of bright lighting!

Minuses

It works loud! At speed 3 it’s a plane taking off! The slide switches are not convenient, you constantly turn on the wrong speed! The carbon filter is not included in the kit (you need to buy it in addition). Manufacturers saved on the power cord (very short).

A comment

The price is not too high in my opinion. The filter is easily removable, it is one-piece and is not divided into sections, so washing in a small sink is problematic. The instructions are clear and detailed. The downside of all fireplace hoods is the labor-intensive connection. We connected it ourselves (additional materials cost 400 rubles).

pros

Appearance. Full functionality (check valve, etc.) Fasteners included.

Minuses

No carbon filters included.

A comment

Allows you to work in circulation mode.
Easy to assemble yourself. With carbon filters ordered in advance, it took about five minutes to install. Of which three were looking for a level. 11th place

Hoods with carbon filter reviews

Is it worth installing a hood over a wicker without a hood pipe but with a carbon filter?

Sasha Sh.

Supreme Intelligence (156275) 5 years ago

If you want the air to be effectively cleaned of dirt, then there is no need to save money or experiment. Certain rules for the installation and operation of kitchen hoods have long been applied.

(when copying a link, remove the * sign)

Other answers

Master (1705) 5 years ago

We use a hood with a pipe. I’ll tell you what criteria for the hood you should focus on. The width of the hood should not be less than the width of the hob. This hood model was ideal for us, since its width coincides with the width of the gas stove and is...

The performance of a hood should be assessed by how quickly and effectively it copes with unwanted odors in the kitchen. Therefore, performance is important - the volume of air pumped by the hood per unit of time. As a rule, the air in the kitchen should change at least 12 times within one hour when the stove is operating, therefore the hood capacity should be from 243 to 324 m3/h, if the kitchen area does not exceed 9 square meters. m. In this parameter, the Cata P-3060 exceeded expectations, because its productivity is 380 cubic meters. m/h.

An important criterion when choosing a hood is noise. A noise level of no more than 55 dB is considered normal. The noise level of the Cata P-3060 inox is 53 dB.

A special feature of the Cata P-3060 is that it only works in outlet mode (with pipe). that is, it draws air from the kitchen and expels it outside through the building's ventilation system or through an opening in an outside wall. The presence of a recirculation mode (if without a pipe) is not necessary, because it is indispensable where it is not possible to ensure the outflow of air to the outside.

As a rule, a hood with an exhaust mode can do without filters at all, but the Cata P-3060 has a built-in coarse grease filter to protect internal parts and the air duct from soot and grease. The grease filter should be washed once a month in warm soapy water or in the dishwasher, placed vertically. This is very convenient, since you do not need to constantly buy a new one, but simply maintain the existing filter in good condition.

Similar questions

All sections

not connected to the ventilation duct

Let me disagree with you, as far as I know, now almost ALL models of hoods are capable of operating in two modes of the hood itself (outlet) with connection to the ventilation duct through a corrugation and in recirculation mode.

A carbon filter is really only needed as an after-treatment when operating in recirculation mode and, by and large, is needed to a greater extent to neutralize odors.

By the way, any filters, both coarse (both synthetic and metal) and fine (carbon), must be changed over time. For the time being, the metal filter can be washed from grease with a detergent like Fairy.

The choice of a hood primarily depends on the size of the room, since the main parameter of a hood is its performance - the volume of air that the hood can pump in an hour. The higher the performance, the noisier the hood usually is.

It is also worth paying attention to the width of the hood; it should be no less than the width of the slab, that is, for a 60 cm wide slab you need a hood of at least 60 cm.

Well, and then the type of control, design, etc. is selected.

Minuses

A comment

It's been working flawlessly for 3 years! The power is excellent, there is no strong noise. Stainless steel looks beautiful. The only thing is that the slider needs to be wiped every week to prevent grease from clogging it. Overall a great model!

pros

elegant metal side, quality work, excellent price-quality ratio

Minuses

fingerprints remain on the body

A comment

We were looking for a hood of exactly this type in metal color. I immediately liked the appearance of the model. There is a beautiful thin side around the entire perimeter of the hood. The hood has been with us for two years now, and we are very pleased with how it copes with its direct responsibilities)) It extracts odors and fumes perfectly! The apartment never smells like food (our apartment is 8 sq. m.). The hood has simple controls - 3 speeds, which are switched using a slider. So who doesn’t want to suffer with a large number of incomprehensible buttons and functions, this model is perfect)). I cook mostly on speed 2 and it copes with odors perfectly (even when something burns)). The hood does not make much noise. Whenever I cook, my TV is on and I don’t have to turn up the volume)). One small drawback is that fingerprints remain on the case. At first I struggled in search of a good detergent, but now I’ve found an option that removes all traces very well! To sum up, I want to say that for the price this is an excellent option! I recommend!)

pros

simple controls, everything works smoothly without problems, reasonable price

Minuses

there are no such)

A comment

Hood of the simplest design and functionality. I was looking for just such a plan. It does its job very well. There is no rattling or loud noise. It's been working without problems for a year now. Cool option for the money.

pros

Compact. I have never seen such elegant edging and body geometry anywhere else. In comparison, all similar hoods look rough.

Minuses

Not very convenient slider control. I had to take the buttons.

A comment

I bought it for the dacha. a bit noisy, but not too much. Without it, the odors would take days to dissipate. There are no cooking smells with it at all. I'm happy.

pros

For the price this is a pretty decent hood. I turn on the hood when I cook and when my husband smokes in the kitchen. The noise does not interfere at all, the TV looks calm at third speed)

Minuses

Not noticed

A comment

I was looking for an inexpensive, simple hood for 50. In my opinion, the combination of price and quality is ideal...

pros

A simple and convenient hood in its price segment.

Minuses

not detected

A comment

A properly laid air duct with the appropriate cross-section is the key to quiet operation of the hood. If the hood blows all the bad odors into the duct, how can they smell when the hood is running? My work is quiet and there are no smells.

pros

1. nice appearance 2. ability to stick magnets

Minuses

1. unpleasant smell from a working hood
2. very noisy

3. in circulation mode there is no exhaust at all

A comment

In one word, this hood can be described as much ado about nothing.

pros

price - bought it 2.5 years ago for 3500 rubles, good appearance

Minuses

1. noisy - even at 1st speed.
2. sometimes the hood motor starts to hum

3. the engine seized immediately after the end of the warranty - after 2 years

4. The new engine is in the office. service 3500 (!) rub. (like a new hood 2.5 years ago)

5. It’s very painful to disassemble the hood to get to the motor

6. turned it on quite rarely - it’s all the more surprising that it worked for a little more than 2 years

7. after completely disassembling the hood and lubricating the motor, it began to spin, but now it is impossible to insert it into the plastic case - the plastic blades do not spin

A comment

This is not a hood - this is one continuous big hemorrhoid!
Reliability - 0, noisy, decorative box made of a thin sheet of metal, unrealistically expensive spare parts, etc. Never again in my life will I buy or recommend to ANYONE any KRONA product. They have lost their image in my eyes.

pros

Power

Minuses

Reliability, design defects

A comment

Our neighbors smoke in the kitchen, so we don’t turn off the hood at all: it works around the clock at first speed. The air flow created is decent, you even have to lean towards the pan to smell the smell. But happiness ends quickly. Once every six months the engine seizes. Lubricating it requires a lot of time, nerves and various tools. It’s not clear what the developers were counting on, probably that I would take their hood to the service center 2 times a year. First remove from the wall. There is no way without this. Then disassemble COMPLETELY - unscrew the myriad of self-tapping screws, screws, nuts. The result is that I am covered in dust and grease, I spent at least an hour, the hood works for another six months. I've tried different lubricants. It doesn't give anything. The motor shaft rotates in bushings, which are cooled by the general air flow. There are no seals. I tried putting carbon filters on it. I paid about a thousand for them, I remember. The hood with them becomes very noisy and practically does not work. Now I’m looking for a good duct fan, and I’ll use this unfortunate hood as a decoration.

pros

saves space, high-quality assembly

Minuses

I didn’t notice any obvious shortcomings

A comment

I love to cook and constantly spend time in the kitchen.
For the kitchen, I chose the hood myself, based on the parameters - the area of the room (8 m2) and the location of the kitchen wall. This elegant model of the hood, installed by the master, fits perfectly. In the exhaust mode, it copes even with 4 burners turned on, and my husband smokes right in the kitchen - I don’t even notice the smell of tobacco. 12th place

Flow hood

The device is placed directly above the stove and, when operating, draws in steam, smoke, and in general everything that is commonly called kitchen fumes. Through the air duct, all contaminants and combustion products are discharged outside the room along with the air.

Full flow hood

Since there is an outflow of air in the kitchen, it is necessary that fresh air from the street enters the apartment during operation. Therefore, do not forget to open windows and doors. After all, the air must constantly circulate (air thrown into the street must be replaced by fresh intake). If everything is hermetically sealed, and air from the street is not allowed to enter, then it is possible that while the hood is operating, air from neighboring apartments will begin to flow into your apartment. You probably won't like it.

It is believed that with the correct ratio of hood power and cubic meters of room, per hour of operation of the device, the entire volume of air in the kitchen should change from 10 to 12 times. Agree that this is the most complete update of the kitchen air, provided, of course, that the air outside meets environmental standards.

The flow-through hood has a filter (although there are also hoods without it). But its presence does not affect the quality of air purification in the room (as, say, in a circulation purifier), since this air is still discharged into the chimney and then into the street. Here the filter is needed only to protect the fan motor from sticky soot and grease residue.

grease filter

From time to time, the filter must be washed and grease removed with a degreaser (either manually or using a dishwasher). If this is not done periodically, a filter clogged with greasy dirt will stop letting air through. The device will not be able to perform its main task. The load on the engine will increase and it may fail prematurely.

The method of 100% air replacement should appeal to everyone. Who can be against fresh air from the street? But the problem is that in winter, not everyone wants to lose heat in the house, especially if there is a problem with heating. After all, when it’s frosty outside, we try by all means to provide ourselves and our loved ones with a comfortable temperature in the apartment and pay money for it. This means that when we expel the air heated by heating into the chimney, we also throw our money there. In this case, it may be better to have a circulating kitchen air purifier at home.

Reviews

pros

Powerful, three modes, backlight, can be used as a hood or filter, low price.

Minuses

The meaning of the glass and the 40 W incandescent light bulb included is not entirely clear (this is the 21st century)

A comment

I liked the hood, it can work as an air filter, for those who need to pull the pipe too far. Although the price is low, it is expensive for a domestic hood. For example, Polish jetair can be found a little cheaper. The purpose of glass is not very clear, it is to prevent fat from flying into the eyes. Overall the impression is good. If you like the design, feel free to buy it.

pros

price, workmanship
