The Slovak brand Gorenje continues to delight users from all over the world with models of household appliances that are perfectly balanced in price and characteristics. The WHI 643 ORA hood is a modern high-tech product that will provide comfort and cleanliness in a large kitchen.

The hood is part of the Ora-Ito designer collection, has a discreet appearance and is available in either black or white. The working panel at the bottom is crossed by a light gray stripe, on which there is a logo with the name of the collection. It looks impressive and stylish.

However, the functional side of the device is of much greater interest. Thanks to the perimeter suction system, the hood has a large air intake area. In addition to 3 speeds, you can turn on the PowerBoost mode, which increases engine performance from 570 to 740 m³/h. That is, a kitchen with an area of 25 m² is not a problem at all.

For those who do not want to bother themselves with settings using the already simple touch controls, Adaptech technology is implemented. By pressing one button, the system itself will determine the level of pollution and automatically select the speed, and then turn off the hood after all odors have been eliminated.

Among the additional amenities, we note a dimmer for smoothly adjusting the backlight of 2 LED lamps of 4 W (equivalent to one incandescent lamp of 60 W), a timer, a filter contamination sensor and an interval operation mode. The latter is very convenient for maintaining clean indoor air when you are not at home. In this mode, the hood will turn on once an hour for a few minutes, and then turn off.

In addition to all the advantages of the WHI 643 ORA, it is also not too noisy, only 59 dB at maximum. For such power - sheer nonsense.

Against the backdrop of such an advanced level of charge, the price tag of $400 seems quite adequate. And therefore, let’s write it down - the Gorenje WHI 643 ORA has no disadvantages.
