🏆 Review & price summary

The CDA ECP62SS cooker hood combines a curved-glass chimney design with stainless-steel detailing, three push-button extraction speeds and two LED lights. It can be installed for either external ducting or recirculation, making it adaptable to different kitchen layouts.

✓ Key strengths

  • ✓ Flexible ducted or recirculating installation
  • ✓ Three extraction speeds with simple push-button controls
  • ✓ Two LED lights with a stated 4000K colour temperature
  • ✓ Dishwasher-safe four-layer aluminium grease filter
  • ✓ Height-adjustable chimney section for more installation flexibility

Worth considering

  • D energy rating and 60kWh annual consumption are less efficient than A- to C-rated cooker hoods
  • Maximum extraction is limited to 391m³/h, so it is not intended for very high-output cooking
  • Noise reaches 60dBA at the highest speed, making full-power operation clearly audible
  • Recirculating installation requires the optional charcoal filter, and the grease-filtering efficiency is rated D

Design and installation

The CDA ECP62SS cooker hood is a 60cm curved-glass chimney model with a stainless-steel finish. Its height-adjustable chimney section measures 410–780mm, while the hood body is 500mm deep.

It supports both ducted and recirculating installation and uses a 150mm outlet. CDA specifies minimum clearances of 550mm above electric hobs and 650mm above gas hobs.

Extraction performance

Three extraction speeds provide airflow rates of 218, 302 and 391m³/h. That is suitable for routine everyday cooking, although buyers prioritising very high extraction should look at more powerful alternatives.

Noise levels are rated at 50, 56 and 60dBA across the three speeds, so maximum-power operation is likely to be clearly audible in an open-plan kitchen.

Controls, lighting and filtration

Push-button controls keep operation straightforward, with three speeds available rather than a more complex automatic control system. Two LED lights provide 4000K illumination over the cooking area.

The hood has one four-layer aluminium cassette grease filter, and CDA confirms that it is dishwasher-safe. Its grease-filtering efficiency is rated D. Recirculating installation uses one optional charcoal filter.

Energy use and overall assessment

The CDA ECP62SS cooker hood carries a D energy rating and has a stated annual energy consumption of 60kWh. The lighting itself is rated A, but the appliance's overall efficiency score is anchored to its D rating.

Overall, this is a practical mid-specification chimney hood with flexible installation, simple controls and useful lighting. Its main compromises are the modest maximum airflow, D-rated efficiency and audible full-power operation.
