CIARRA Portable Range Hood, Desktop Range Hood with 2 Speed Exhaust Fan, Detachable Aluminum Filter, Large Oil Collection Cup, Portable Kitchen Exhaust Fan for Indoor BBQ, Hot Pot

Works great if you don’t have a hood and replace your oven/stove and there aren’t many options for downdraft models avail. Only other alternative was to find a portable hood. Had a collection cup for oil. So far does what it should.

After I went to Korea I was looking for one of these and ordered this. It was cheaper than Home Depot for the same exact product and had more color options. I have used this for hot pot Korean bbq shabu shabu fried rice, it works very well. The smell after cooking disappears about a hour or two after I open windows as before we were not able to do it cuz of the smoke and steam. I didn’t even want to try. Very easy to turn on and plug in. Noise level is loud but you can still talk to the person next to you and across from you. Love the cool down mode as well. Fantastic product.

We use this portable hood whenever we do K-BBQ or sear steaks indoors. For something this small, it pulls in a lot more oil and smoke than I expected. The filter and oil cup actually catch a noticeable amount of grease, and the airflow is strong enough to keep our smoke alarm from going off during heavier cooking sessions. Without it, indoor BBQ would be a mess. Just be realistic about what it can and can’t do. It’s not going to capture everything—there’s still some smoke and grease that escape, especially when you’re cooking at high heat or have multiple burners going. That’s just the limitation of any tabletop unit. The aluminum filter is easy to remove and clean, and the oil cup fills slowly enough that you’re not constantly emptying it. Noise level is about what you’d expect from a small exhaust fan—not silent, but manageable. Pros: Actually, reduces smoke enough to prevent false fire alarms Catches a good amount of grease Easy-to-clean filter and oil collection cup Makes indoor K-BBQ or steak nights a lot more tolerable Cons: Can’t capture all smoke/oil (don’t expect a wall-mounted hood’s performance) Airflow is decent but not strong enough for very heavy cooking sessions Only two fan speeds Bottom line: Not perfect, but genuinely useful if you want to grill or sear indoors without filling your place with smoke. It does enough to justify the space and cost.

I'm enjoying my portable range. It is lightweight, it’s odor removal, high and low speed & you can place it anywhere on your range I your kitchen. For 50 years I used factory placed hood range but this is just as good. I love it! Oh yeah, I got my sister to buy one and she loves it.

The unit is quite loud, even on the lower fan setting. Unfortunately, the filter does not seem to work effectively. There is noticeable oil buildup on the back of the fan, indicating that grease is not being properly trapped. Additionally, the oil collection cup is poorly designed; it's difficult to remove and even harder to clean. While the concept is good for small indoor setups, the overall functionality and maintenance issues make it hard to recommend.

The product is ok. Helps, but it’s not a solution. It does not suck in all the odor. You still get some smoke and smell around the house. You really need to put it to the max, and leave it really close to the pan to get some result.

Pretty good at reducing smells. The outer shell will soften when exposed to heat ans eventually warp.

Very impressed! Easy to clean too! No smoke in the house

Loud noise

Works on gas stoves also. If you fry meat such as making hamburgers it cuts out the odour.

Dont buy it, it doesn’t do anything. There is no teal carbon filter, or any other real filter.

It stopped working after 2 days. Very disappointed

I have a small apartment and needed a solution for ventilation. I was hesitant to order one of these, not a regular one, but since I don’t have the system for it, I gave it a try and I didn’t regret my decision. I have it since last year and it works great as you can see on the video. Two option to change intensity, but even the lower sucks the steam in nicely. The water container is easy to clean. Packaging was pretty and they sent an extra filter too. Highest option is a bit loud, but not louder than a regular cook hood, it’s not bothering. I like the design too! I’m happy with the order! Thank you!
