NEFF N30 60cm Telescopic Cooker Hood
A 60cm telescopic cooker hood from NEFF's N 30 range that pulls out over the hob when you cook, extracts up to 388 m³/h, then slides back flush.
The D46BR22N1B is a built-in telescopic hood designed to disappear into a 60cm wall unit above your hob. When it is not working, all you see is a slim silver metallic front bar just 20.3cm tall. It suits fitted kitchens where a bulky chimney hood would dominate, and replacements for existing pull-out hoods, thanks to its standard 52.6cm installation niche.
Pull the hood out and it starts covering more of the hob surface, capturing steam and cooking smells at their source. Three fan speeds, selected on a simple rocker switch, take extraction up to 388 m³/h in ducted mode. Two LED lamps put 131 lux of neutral white light directly onto your pans, so the hood earns its place even when you are only simmering.
Ideal For
Because the hood body hides inside a wall unit with only the pull-out front visible, it keeps a run of matching cabinets looking uninterrupted, something no chimney hood can offer.
With a 59.8cm body, a 52.6cm niche width and a choice of 120mm or 150mm ducting, it is a natural candidate when an older 60cm telescopic hood needs replacing.
A rocker switch, three speeds and two washable aluminium grease filters mean there is nothing complicated to learn or maintain. Pull it out, set the speed, cook.
Key Features
In ducted mode the hood moves up to 388 cubic metres of air an hour, enough to clear steam from a busy 60cm hob beneath it.
The hood extends over the hob only while you cook. Retracted, the 20.3cm-tall unit sits inside the cabinet with just the front bar showing.
A rocker switch steps the 105W motor through three settings, so you can match extraction to anything from gentle simmering to hard frying.
Two 3W LED lamps cast neutral white light at 3,500K over the hob, brightening the work surface while using very little electricity.
The grease filters are aluminium rather than disposable paper, so maintenance is a wash rather than a repurchase, keeping running costs down.
The hood is convertible: vent through 120mm or 150mm ducting for maximum performance, or recirculate at up to 257 m³/h where ducting is impractical.
Extraction that stays out of sight
Telescopic hoods solve a genuine kitchen problem: most of us want strong extraction but few of us want to look at it. The D46BR22N1B mounts inside a standard wall cabinet, and its 52.6cm niche requirement is designed around common 60cm units. The visible part is a slim silver metallic bar that pulls forward when needed. Everything else, the motor, the filters, the ducting connection, lives behind your cabinet door.
Simple controls, sensible maintenance
There is no menu system here, and that is the point. A rocker switch selects one of three speeds and toggles the two LED lamps. The aluminium grease filters lift out and wash clean, and the B energy rating with annual consumption of 40.3 kWh reflects the efficient LED lighting and 105W motor. For households that want an appliance to just work for years with minimal thought, this is the right sort of engineering.
Ducting out or recirculating in
How you install this hood shapes what it can do. Vented through 120mm or 150mm ducting to an outside wall, it reaches its full 388 m³/h and runs at 67 dB flat out, carrying steam, grease and smells right out of the house. Where ducting is not possible, it converts to recirculation mode, filtering air and returning it to the room at up to 257 m³/h. Extraction is the stronger setup, so if your kitchen has an external wall within reach, plan the ducting run before the cabinets go in, and keep the hood at least 43cm above an electric hob or 65cm above gas.
How It Compares
| Kitchen Need | NEFF Technology | Practical Benefit |
|---|---|---|
| Streamlined cabinetry | Telescopic pull-out design | The hood hides inside a wall unit, keeping your run of cupboards unbroken until you pull it out to cook. |
| Heavy frying sessions | 388 m³/h ducted extraction | Top speed shifts steam and cooking smells quickly, so the kitchen clears rather than fogging up mid-fry. |
| Flats without ducting | Convertible recirculation mode | Where an outside vent is impossible, the hood recirculates filtered air back into the room at up to 257 m³/h. |
| Dim worktops | Twin 131 lux LEDs | Neutral white 3,500K light lands directly on the hob, so you can judge browning without flicking on the main lights. |
| Low running costs | B-rated efficiency | LED lamps, washable filters and a 105W motor keep annual consumption to 40.3 kWh with nothing disposable to rebuy. |
| Replacing an old hood | Standard 52.6cm niche | Dimensions follow common 60cm cabinet conventions, so swapping out an ageing telescopic hood is straightforward. |

The Verdict
Strengths
- 388 m³/h maximum extraction in ducted mode
- Retracts flush into a standard 60cm wall unit
- Washable aluminium grease filters, no disposables
- Two LED lamps deliver 131 lux over the hob
- Convertible to recirculation where ducting is impractical
- Simple three-speed rocker switch control
- Light 8.4 kg unit with 120mm or 150mm duct options
Considerations
- This is a built-in appliance: it must be installed into a wall cabinet with a 52.6cm niche, so factor in fitting.
- There is no intensive boost setting; three fixed speeds are the full range, with 67 dB of noise at maximum.
- In recirculation mode performance drops to 257 m³/h and noise rises to 69 dB, so ducted installation is the stronger option.
