How should I go about choosing the best rangehood for me?

The best way to decide on the best rangehood to suit your needs is to determine which is the main style of cooking you do. If you only use your cooktop for boiling potatoes, beans or peas then a fairly low powered rangehood is all you really need. If you use your cooktop, Wok or Griddle plate a lot when cooking then you will have to have a rangehood that can handle the workload. There are three main types of rangehoods; they are the Canopy, Telescopic and Undermount. Choosing one of these styles is really one of personal choice as all of them are available with varying power levels and should be suited to your kitchen design.
