Extremely good and efficient. I was looking for the most powerful extractor of its kind, regardless of its cost. There is no other alternative option. At least in terms of its technical specifications, it is the best of its kind.

However, please keep in mind the following:

* In order to work properly, it requires a 120mm pipe up to 4 meters long and up to 2 90-degree angles.
* All extractors need a slightly open window (like open fireplaces) to work properly and draw in air. Otherwise, they create pressure in the room, do not draw in air, and if the house has good aluminum frames and good airtightness, they may struggle and possibly overheat - especially if they have long pipes / many angles / small pipe diameter.
* The filters attach fine as long as you understand where they should be placed. They do not fit as easily as in the 2002 model, but if one takes the time to understand the logic, they will work just fine.
* Pay attention to properly place the 2 plastic flaps (damper) on the upper part where the pipe goes (the little ears they have should be facing upwards), otherwise they will hit and make a lot of noise. It is mentioned in the instructions.
* Check the design before purchasing, because if you compare it, for example, with the TEKA 2002, you will need to cut the cabinet as it is considerably taller. See the attached photo I uploaded. It protrudes quite a bit above the cabinet. To replace the 2002 model, I had to cut the cabinet with a saw and the existing plastic ventilation pipes. The mounting holes are luckily in the exact same positions and did not require new ones.
* As someone else mentioned, you can tell its power from the pressure it creates, as it pulls and seals the interior door when you try to open it.
* Fortunately, the switches are not touch-sensitive, because if they were, I would be sure that they would not work over time.
* Read the instructions. It has a nice function where you can program it to work for as long as you want and then it will shut off automatically.
* When you finish the installation, remove all the plastic covers. It has adhesive protectors everywhere. Its final appearance, as you see it from every side, should be silver/stainless steel. If you don't remove them, they won't come off later.
* The noise level is relative to the resistance caused by the pipe you have installed. Due to a small pipe or many angles, it can be noisy. It is not the fault of the extractor. To have an idea of the minimum noise it can have and its performance, test it a bit without installing it. Just plug it into the socket (after removing the filters because it has screws/consumables/manuals inside that need to be removed the first time).
* The power connection is made with a simple power plug (unfortunately without grounding)

It worked satisfactorily for about a year. Then it only worked on high scale and would turn off by itself after about 20 minutes, and it hardly picks up anything. Overall, it's a waste.

  It pulls quite well
  It makes a lot of noise even on the lowest setting
  It becomes chaotic on full power
  In my opinion, a disadvantage is that when it is closed, you don't have the option to have the light on.
  The light automatically turns on when you pull it out and the extractor fan "pulls"
  Light color is blue

  I don't think I would choose it again because of the noise it makes

  It makes very little noise and eliminates all odors even at low operating levels. It is necessary for a window to be open during its operation, otherwise it creates pressure in the room.

  Just after the warranty expired, the motor broke down, costing 230€. And a charge of 40€ from TEKA service to come and see it. Unacceptable, stay away..... Never again TEKA

  Very good....easy installation, but before you put the pipe, remove the 2 valves it has at the outlet for garbage, etc. at high speeds they will hit each other. It has excellent performance even at low speeds. Probably because it takes a 15mm pipe instead of the classic 12mm. The light is also quite good. It does not retain the setting you put when you close it and if you leave it open for a long time, the light turns off. I suppose it's to save electricity. As for the noise....it's an extractor fan, guys. It will make noise! This particular model pulls 550 cubic meters per hour, this cannot be achieved silently. Finally, it also has an adapter for a 12mm pipe, but I would not recommend it as it will cause "backflow" of air and in the long run it may burn the motor.

  I have been using it for 3.5 years. Performance-wise, it is very good. However, I already hear the motor making excessive noise. It will burn out soon. So, it is not reliable.

  Hello,
  I have bought two, one for the country house and one for my friend's house. As a hood, it has very good performance and nice lighting, but the build quality is excessively fake. In both, the sliding part feels like it's broken and sometimes the small filter comes off, resulting in the lid not closing. It would be better if they had made it a bit more expensive and had better build quality, rather than cheap and fake.

  Without any particular use, the volume increase button has cracked while it is still under warranty, which supposedly does not cover this defect.

  Just after the 2-year warranty ended, the motor broke down. The technician asked for 220€ and I decided to replace the extractor fan. Unacceptable, especially considering it's a TEKA product that I bought for its reputation and quality

  It sucks everything! It has a one-meter long hose with a 12-inch angle. The two clicks you hear when closing it are the valves that prevent air from returning. The light turns on by itself (you need to close the default starting extractor when pulling the folding section, which should be left extended to keep the light on). So far, I haven't set it above 3. I struggled a bit with removing the protective membranes - you need to be careful not to leave any pieces behind.
  2023-09-29: 3 months now, I haven't needed to set it above 3 - it absorbs everything!

  I have had it for 4 years and without much use and the motor, even though I bought it for 150 on sale, its service life was 200. They told me it was a random event... Probably that's why it was on sale, to die in 4 years! Unacceptable.

  The motor burned out (as the service said) in 2 years and 4 months. The cost of the motor is 180 euros so you have to buy another one. So, good for 2 years!

  I have it for 1 year and something.
  5 stars from me because it does what it promises.
  Yes, it makes noise even on the low setting, but it also has high absorption power.
  I installed a 120mm pipe. I believe it would have been quieter with a 150mm pipe.

  The filters, in my opinion, are a bit flimsy. The metal pieces need a little bending or a bit of patience when installing them.

  The light it has is cool white and from what I saw, it is an LED strip. So it will be a bit inconvenient when it burns out (compared to having a regular screw-in light)

  I have had it for quite some time and I have also faced the problem with the filter. Of course, I pulled the tabs back and the situation was somehow saved. It does its job for sure, but if it breaks, I wouldn't buy it again!

  A few days ago I installed it. Very good purchase. However, I have some observations compared to the comments and reviews I had read before buying it:
  1. The instructions (manual) are very bad.
  2. It has really great power and indeed creates pressure in the room. It is good to leave a window slightly open when it is operating.
  3. Very good lighting.
  4. It comes with a bipolar plug from the factory. If you cut it, you will likely lose the warranty. Also, it seems unacceptable for it not to have a three-pole (Schuko) plug, meaning that its chassis is not grounded. Unacceptable for a product sold within the EU, and I don't know if there is a safety issue. Out of the 220 euros I paid, was it such a big cost for a third cable?
  5. During installation, take into account the screws at the back that make it protrude 2-3 millimeters. It made it very difficult for me because it was sticking out more. It also prevented the main support screws from screwing in relation to the pattern, and even the cabinet from closing.
  6. It has the adapter F150/125 inside it. I discovered it after I had already screwed it and ordered that specific reducer. It is very wrong that it is not described in the instructions that it exists and where it is. For those who haven't found it, simply open the large filter now and it will fall into your hands.
  7. The small filter that I read about in a third of the comments, that it falls into the large filter, does not happen. Come on, really! If it happens to you, just open the ears of it a little!
  8. The operating speed is the same as the one you had set. If it resets to the first speed, you have done something wrong. Maybe you should try changing the polarity in the power supply.
  9. Don't forget to remove the protective film from the back before installing it. Also, you will have difficulty removing the rest of the protective films correctly

  Very powerful machine and very good lighting.
  After 15 days of use, the light does not turn on. The switch probably has a problem. It needs to be removed and taken for service for 15+ days. And all this after 15 days of use.

  The old one was from the same company so the installation was convenient for me. They have kept the same points on the screws as the old models.
  The performance is very good. It is noisy on the high settings but it is understandable. The lighting is satisfactory.
  The build quality is not very good. The mechanisms that hold the filters in the drawer are poor. I removed the drawer and reconstructed the notches that held them. I also tightened some terminals on the electrical part. Overall, I don't think it will withstand the test of time.

  The extractor is awesome. After almost 10 months, I can say that it is the best purchase for the money it costs. It has 6 intensity levels for all tastes, it sucks exceptionally well, the noise is normal, and the build quality looks very good. I highly recommend it!

  1st day of operation in a kitchen space for testing during installation with the cabinets. It looks nice on the cabinets, which were cut with CNC to fit exactly, and we try to operate it and say it's an amazing job...
  I pull the drawer and it works normally. 2nd test, it doesn't work. Opening and closing the drawer, it literally explodes and the relay falls.
  One cable was not screwed onto the power supply of the lights, so the cable touched the casing of the extractor fan with electricity.
  Normally, it should have internal safety and the extractor fan, but it doesn't, and the circuit board is probably damaged...
  I want to see what the service will say...

  After changing the pipe from f10 to f12 as required, I can say that the tool sucks very well. It gave me quite a hard time due to the fact that, from the previous model, again Teka, the support holes in the melamine were not aligned for about 1 point and had to be adjusted in order to be installed.
  The lighting is also very good!

  It has been working very well for a month now with a 15-meter hose. Follow the manufacturer's instructions. It requires an open window (5 cm) because it creates strong suction. Don't forget to wash the filters in the dishwasher every month. I put it in the middle power and it works great. The lighting is perfect. Recommended

  Its absorbency is at its maximum. It moves even the tablecloth we have outside on the balcony.

  Luckily, we don't have any issues with the filters.

  As for the noise, these two plastic flaps should be placed in opposite directions. If you try to put them in the same direction, the noise will be like a factory. See the photos.

  Awesome and very powerful! Normally all new extractors work with pipes of at least 120mm in diameter, that is, with a minimum diameter of 12cm. If you use a smaller diameter pipe, make sure not to use the extractor at maximum power because otherwise it will struggle and burn the motor, which will be out of warranty because you did not use it according to the manufacturer's specifications. It's all written in the manufacturer's instructions. Also, in case the filter falls, there is a way to adjust it by screwing a screw on the sides of the filter, which is also indicated in the instructions. So, the extractor is awesome, beautiful, powerful, and with very good lighting!

  I have had this extractor fan for 1 year. Let's not kid ourselves, it makes a lot of noise. It absorbs satisfactorily. However, I believe that there are much better ones than this one..
  UPDATE
  In the 2 and a half years that I have had it, it rusted, the stainless steel peeled off, and the motor is buzzing! Clearly no! Stay away for its price!
