Extractor hobs
At AO, we love a good combo. The fridge freezer. The washer dryer. The bluicer (look it up – it’s a real thing). The extractor hob is just another great two in one. It’s a hob with a downdraft cooker hood built-in, so it keeps the kitchen smelling fresh and saves on space.
What are the benefits of a vented hob?
Space-saving
Because extractor hobs have a cooker hood built-in and a sleek and minimal design, your kitchen will end up looking like it has a lot more space.
Suits any layout
Since you don’t have to worry about where to put a cooker hood, vented hobs suit any kind of kitchen style. Got an island? This is the perfect thing for it.
Better extraction
Extractor hobs are usually more efficient than other cooker hoods. Steam is drawn out at cooking level, so you get fewer smells and condensation clouding up your kitchen.
Quiet
Maybe saving the best for last, but extractor hobs are quieter than regular models. You don’t have to put conversations on hold while these guys are in the room.

NEFF Extractor Hobs
This extractor hob from NEFF is simply stunning. Not only that, but it’s efficient too. While you’re cooking, the hob’s induction technology will help save energy, and the downdraft cooker hood will pull away any smoke or smells as well - the hood will even turn on by itself, as soon as its sensors detect any steam. This means you can enjoy the perfect cooking environment without doing a thing.
FAQs
- What is a Extractor hob?
Extractor hobs combine an induction cooking surface with a built-in downdraft cooker hood.
- Is a extractor hob the same as a downdraft extractor?
A downdraft extractor doesn’t have the hob, but in terms of ventilation they’re fairly similar. They both extract fumes from the same level as the hob, but an extractor takes up a bit more room.
- Are extractor hobs quieter than extractor fans?
One of the main benefits of a extractor hob is its quietness. If you’re looking at one of these products, you won’t have to worry about conversations being drowned out.
- Where can I place a extractor hob?
The beauty of a extractor hob is that you have the freedom of where to put it. That means it can even go on a kitchen island.
- Are extractor hobs expensive?
Short term, yes. But once you look a bit further, extractor hobs are a great investment to make. These 2-in-1 products can last up to 15 years, and with the benefits above, they’re a great choice for your kitchen.
