In the modern world, many strive to keep the kitchen clean and contemporary by using various tools, including exhaust hoods. A hood helps eliminate odors and soot from the kitchen. Recently, the Hindware Enrica BLDC Chimney model appeared on the market, which we tested.
We used the Enrica BLDC Chimney for about 15 days, testing its functions, suction power, and energy efficiency. The company claims that the hood is equipped with a powerful suction system with a maximum capacity of 1600 m³/hour.
Thanks to its high suction power, the appliance effectively removes smoke, as well as the smells of spices and oil from the kitchen. The model is available in three sizes: 60 cm, 75 cm, and 90 cm. We reviewed the 90 cm version, which costs 42,990 rupees, and the 60 cm model costs 40,990 rupees.
Regarding its appearance, the design of the Enrica BLDC Chimney looks very premium. It is equipped with tempered glass, which blends well with modern kitchen decor. The hood also features a multi-color digital display with premium controls that are easy to use.
A special feature is the gesture control function: the hood can be controlled simply by waving your hand in front of the display. Gestures can be used to turn the appliance on, adjust the speed, and turn it off. The hood offers nine speed levels.
The Enrica BLDC Chimney includes an automatic cleaning function, which uses a heat-based cleaning mechanism to easily remove stuck oil. The tool-free detachable design simplifies maintenance, which is convenient for those who do not want to clean manually often.
The hood uses a BLDC motor—a modern technology that ensures energy savings while maintaining a high level of performance. Nine speed settings allow users to choose the suction level according to their needs.
Despite the high suction power of the Hindware Enrica BLDC Kitchen Chimney, significant noise occurs when the fan is set to the ninth speed. Prolonged use of the hood at maximum speed can become a source of discomfort due to this noise.
The Hindware Enrica BLDC Kitchen Chimney has all the necessary functions for the kitchen. It boasts excellent design and meets modern requirements thanks to the digital display with touch and gesture control. The appliance effectively removes smoke and odors from the kitchen. However, it should be noted that the fan may make noise at high speeds.
