Its like comparing an airline pilot to an Uber driver both aid in transportation, but in completely different contexts and on entirely different levels. The AirHood is designed to do exactly what a chimney does but instead of being fixed to your kitchen wall, it sits on the side, powerfully sucking any fumes before they stain your backsplash or worse, trigger the smoke detector. The AirHood was made for homes without chimneys whether youre a renter, a student, or a YouTuber cooking on your photogenic kitchen island without an overhead chimney.Powerful Cooking Fume Extraction With Dual Filter TechnologyThink of the AirHood 2 as your new kitchen staple a sophisticated tabletop chimney that stands watch while you channel your inner Gordon Ramsay. The second generation brings meaningful upgrades to an already impressive design. A much more powerful fan and air-channel design improvements give you 28% higher speeds, with 82% higher suction power for more effective purification. Meanwhile, a dual filter system on the inside traps grease and eliminates odor. The newer edition gets 3 fan speeds (plus an ultra-fast Turbo mode), while still being 4.6dB quieter than its predecessor.A clever combination of oil filters and activated carbon filters helps purify cooking fumes in seconds. One traps grease particles while the other neutralizes VOCs or volatile organic compounds that could pollute the air.

In small kitchens where every inch counts, this flexibility feels like a superpower.Aesthetically, the AirHood 2 feels like it was designed by someone who actually understands modern kitchens. The refined silhouette, available in Midnight Black and Cadmium Orange, looks more like a piece of contemporary art than a utilitarian appliance.

The oil filter and front lid are both detachable and dishwasher friendly, while the activated carbon filter can be replaced when needed. The AirHood 2 ships with two activated carbon filters (you can buy replacement charcoal filters in packs of 5), with a newly-launched premium honeycomb filter with industrial-grade filtration that improves airflow and performance of your AirHood 2. The honeycomb filter is made in collaboration with Mann+Hummel, Germanys leading filter manufacturer, and is designed to be almost infinitely reusable. Simply heat the ceramic and coconut husk-carbon honeycomb filter in an oven to regenerate it and make it as good as new.3 power levels plus turbo mode for heavy duty cooking and post-cooking ventilationFor anyone living in a rental, dorm, or space-challenged apartment, the AirHood 2 fills a crucial gap in kitchen ventilation.
