The Whirlpool AKR 749/1 IX is a built-in telescopic cooker hood designed to be seamlessly integrated into kitchen cabinetry. Its stainless steel finish gives it a clean look, while the retractable screen allows you to extend the extraction area only when needed. This model features three speed settings and a single motor capable of a maximum absorption capacity of 304 m³/h, ensuring that steam and odors are efficiently removed from your cooking space. You can choose between evacuation or recirculation modes, though the latter requires an optional charcoal filter purchased separately. The unit is equipped with washable aluminum grease filters for easier maintenance and two halogen lamps providing a total lighting power of 30 W to brighten your stovetop. With dimensions of 59.8 cm in width, 18 cm in height, and 30 cm in depth, it fits standard cabinet spaces without taking up excessive room. Operating the hood is straightforward thanks to mechanical buttons and an analog control indicator, and a built-in timer helps you manage the operation time. Despite its robust performance, the device remains relatively lightweight at 6 kg and operates with a maximum noise level of 62 dB, making it a practical choice for those who want a discreet yet effective ventilation solution in their kitchen.
