Don't Return Your Devanti 600mm Range Hood
Learn from common customer mistakes and get expert support to ensure your purchase success
The Costly Truth About Range Hood Returns
At Kitchen Alliance, we've noticed a concerning trend: many customers return their Devanti 600mm range hoods not because the product is faulty, but because they didn't take the time to understand the specifications and requirements before purchasing. These avoidable returns cost customers time, money, and frustration - all while the perfect range hood sits unused.
⚠️ Shocking Return Statistics
Over 5% of range hood returns at Kitchen Alliance are due to specification misunderstandings that could have been prevented with 5 minutes of reading!
Top 5 Reasons Customers Return the Devanti 600mm Range Hood
Understanding these common mistakes can save you from joining the return statistics. Here are the real reasons customers send back perfectly good range hoods:
Wrong Size for Cooktop
Customers assume 600mm works with any cooktop. The manual clearly states this hood is designed for 600mm cooktops - not 750mm or 900mm units.
Insufficient Clearance Height
Installation requires 65cm minimum clearance above gas cooktops. Many customers have cabinets or design constraints preventing proper installation.
Ducting Compatibility Issues
Existing ducting doesn't match the 150mm outlet (or 120mm with reducer). Customers didn't check their current ventilation setup beforehand.
Power Supply Problems
No dedicated 240V power point near installation area. The manual specifies exact electrical requirements that weren't verified pre-purchase.
Structural Mounting Issues
Wall cannot support the weight or doesn't allow proper bracket mounting. Installation manual details exact wall requirements and hardware needs.
Critical Compatibility Check: Will It Work in Your Kitchen?
Before clicking "buy," verify these specifications from the user manual against your actual kitchen setup:
| Specification | Requirement | Common Issues |
|---|---|---|
| Cooktop Width | Exactly 600mm (60cm) | Many assume it works with 750mm or 900mm cooktops |
| Minimum Height | 65cm above gas, 55cm above electric | Overhead cabinets often prevent proper clearance |
| Ducting Outlet | 150mm diameter (120mm with reducer) | Existing 100mm or 125mm ducts won't connect properly |
| Power Supply | 240V dedicated circuit within 170cm | Extension cords not suitable for permanent installation |
| Wall Type | Solid masonry or properly framed drywall | Hollow walls or tiles may need special mounting |
| Installation Space | Minimum 60cm width, adjustable chimney height | Tight spaces between cabinets cause fitting problems |
