Overview

Not a ceiling or island hood, the Zephyr Cyclone is a ducted unit that mounts under a cabinet above the cooktop. Mechanical slide controls adjust it by hand, and a self cleaning system is named in the title. The finish is stainless steel.

Strong airflow and a ducted design make this hood suited to kitchens with an existing duct run beneath a cabinet. Controls are physical slides rather than a touch panel. The listing leaves out duct size, noise level and speed count, so those need checking.

Who it's for

A remodel replacing a stove hood under a wall cabinet is the situation. Apartments with no exterior duct, and cooks who want touch controls or a quiet-rated unit, should look elsewhere since the listing gives neither a noise figure nor touch controls.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Strong airflow rating
  • LED lighting built in
  • Simple mechanical controls
  • Self cleaning system named
Cons
  • Noise level not listed
  • Duct size missing from listing
  • Speed count missing
  • Needs a duct run to the outside

Performance notes

Capture depends on the airflow rating, the hood width relative to the cooktop, and how short and straight the duct run is, since bends and long runs cut real airflow. Slide controls are mechanical, so adjustment happens by hand on the hood itself.
