Akpo WK-4 Optima 60

A stylish inclined hood from the Akpo brand, which can be a good choice for a kitchen with a standard hob width of 60 cm. This model belongs to the middle price segment and combines relatively high performance with a moderate noise level. The design provides both a traditional air exhaust mode through an air duct and recirculation, in which contaminated air passes through a filtration system and returns to the room.

But in the latter case, the user will need to install an additional active filter that allows you to capture not only fat particles, but also odors. With a power of 120 W and one engine, the Akpo Optima 60 hood can pass up to 520 m³/h of air, and the noise level, depending on the selected speed, fluctuates between 40–48 dB, which can be called relatively quiet operation for devices of this class.

At the same time, there are three intensity modes that are conveniently switched using regular buttons. Thanks to LED lamps, the working area is illuminated evenly and at the same time, electricity is consumed economically. The standard aluminum grease filter can be easily removed and washed manually or in a dishwasher, and the ability to install carbon filters is relevant for situations where organizing a full-fledged air duct is difficult or impossible.
