Hi all
I'm looking to replace my cooker hood. As you can see from the pic, the chimney part goes through part of the kitchen unit. The hole is approx 235mm wide and 180mm deep. (Ducting exposed as I unscrewed it to investigate what's underneath)
Problem is the hole was clearly made for that specific hood and most newer ones are smaller. For example, the modern version of the same model has a chimney which is the same depth but only 198mm wide and I'm concerned that the gaps would look a bit naff (although maybe in reality it wouldn't look so bad).
Alternatively there are ones around 220mm wide which would be nearly enough, but not quite as deep, e.g. I saw one that's 222mm x 167.5mm.
If I compromise on one of the dimensions, does anyone know if gaps in the width or depth would be more noticeable?
Thanks
