Klarstein TK15-Barett-WHd Island Cooker Hood with LED Lighting and Carbon Filters

The chandelier-inspired design gives the Klarstein TK15-Barett-WHd a practical role above a kitchen island: it filters cooking fumes while adding LED light over the hob. Its adjustable hanging height lets you position the hood above your cooking area, and touch controls make it straightforward to select a setting as you cook.

Three fan speeds let you tailor extraction to the meal, while the auto-off timer adds a useful finishing touch after cooking. The hood operates in recirculation mode and comes with aluminium grease filters and activated carbon filters to help capture grease and reduce cooking odours.

Who it’s for

This island-mounted cooker hood is designed for kitchens where the hob sits on an island rather than against a wall. Its hanging, chandelier-style form works with that layout, and the adjustable height helps you set its position above the cooking area. LED lighting brings useful illumination to the hob, making it easier to keep an eye on pans while preparing a meal.

It suits everyday cooking where a wall-mounted hood is not the right format. For example, when preparing dinner on an island hob, you can choose between three fan speeds and use the touch controls to adjust extraction as cooking changes from simmering to frying. The recirculation setup and included carbon filters make odour reduction part of the hood’s intended use.

Pros

The filter combination tackles two different parts of cooking extraction: the aluminium grease filters trap grease, oil and dust, while the activated carbon filters help reduce odours and smoke. Two of each filter type are included. The grease filters can be cleaned by hand or in a dishwasher, making routine care more convenient, the carbon filters are replaceable, with replacement once a year recommended.

The adjustable suspension and included ceiling plate and mounting materials support installation above an island. A drill template and step-by-step assembly instructions are also included, along with a user manual in several languages. Once fitted, the three speeds, touch controls and auto-off timer give you practical control without taking attention away from cooking. What matters more in an island layout: a conventional wall-mounted design, or a hood made to hang above the hob?

Key takeaways

The TK15-Barett-WHd combines island mounting with a distinctive chandelier-inspired shape, LED lighting and recirculating extraction. Its controls offer three fan speeds, while the automatic shut-off timer is useful when you want the hood to switch off after cooking. Aluminium grease filters and activated carbon filters are supplied to support grease capture and odour reduction.

For maintenance, the grease filters can be washed by hand or in a dishwasher, and the carbon filters are replaceable. The included mounting accessories, ceiling plate and drill template help with the fitting process. As with any hanging island hood, installation needs to position the unit securely above the cooking area and follow the supplied instructions.

Should you buy it?

Worth considering if you want an extractor designed for a kitchen island, with a hanging chandelier-style look rather than a wall-mounted format. The adjustable height, LED hob lighting, three fan speeds and two-stage filter arrangement make it a practical fit for everyday island cooking, while the cleanable grease filters help keep ongoing maintenance simple.
