About
The Portable Kitchen Hood is a compact, transportable extractor fan designed for small kitchens. These fans are rarely used in small apartments or homes due to spatial limitations, leaving the kitchen to clog with the odors of food preparation. With The Portable Kitchen Hood, a robust motor pulls airborne grease and fumes through a stainless steel oil filter. It then releases filtered air back into the room, keeping the kitchen free from cooking odors. The Portable Kitchen Hood refashions the cumbersome extraction fan, making it feasible in even the most confined of kitchen spaces.
