Specification note

The available product information gives two different minimum noise figures, so the precise low-speed rating should be confirmed before purchase.

Extraction and everyday operation

The Elica LEVER-60 cooker hood offers three extraction speeds covering 240 to 603m³/h, giving it flexibility for everyday meal preparation and more demanding cooking. Its mechanical push buttons are uncomplicated, while opening the visor switches the hood on and closing it switches the appliance off.

The supplied information states that the hood remembers the last power setting, allowing it to resume at the previously selected speed. Removable washable filters are also listed, which should make routine maintenance more manageable.

Design, lighting and installation

This is a telescopic integrated hood intended for installation within kitchen cabinetry. The stainless-steel body and glass front visor are designed to keep the extractor visually discreet, while the visor helps direct vapours towards the extraction area.

Two 2.5W LED lamps provide illumination over the hob. The hood supports both ducted and recirculating installation, although recirculating use requires an appropriate optional charcoal filter, so the intended installation method should be confirmed before buying.

Noise and suitability

The stated operating noise reaches 67dB(A) at the upper end of the range. However, the available product information gives two different lower figures—46dB(A) and 48dB—so the precise minimum noise rating should be verified before purchase if quiet operation is especially important.

Overall, the Elica LEVER-60 cooker hood is best suited to buyers prioritising discreet cabinetry integration, strong extraction and simple controls over advanced connectivity or premium control features.

Research note: this BestBuysUK assessment is based on the manufacturer's published specifications and other reputable technical sources. Specifications and retailer availability can change, so verify critical details before purchase.
