Very good

Overall happy with every bit of it. No push button switches. All digital touch control panel. Timer for the fan is a bonus. Filters looks very durable. No issues yet.

Purchased in February 2021 at The Good Guys for A$803.00.

Do not buy this hood!!!

published

This hood has been dodgy from the start!! From the start the lights come on randomly and then don't go off and then sometimes don't switch on at all.

Currently they are on and we can't get them to switch off. Fisher and Paykel came 4 weeks ago and said it needs a new part. haven't hard anything since so called today to chase up and was told that the part is now in but they can't come and fix for another 3 weeks!! dreading our electricity bill!!

We've had the hood less than a year. Its really noisy too, I wouldn't recommend wasting your money. We are now considering just buying another brand and ditching Fisher and Paykel

Does not work - 820m3 is not correct

published

Installed in a new house build, been very disappointed in how this range hood works (it doesn't). Extraction is poor, touch controls work when they feel like. The range hood can't extract steam/oil well and is all over the cupboards, I even had the installer come back to check how it's ducted and this thing is dismal. It works the same as a $250 range hood. The extraction is far less and doesn't even open the outdoor louvered vent outside where it's connected to.

Wall (Flat) HC90DCXB3 (90cm, Stainless Steel)

In Harvey Norman today I was told that the HC90DCXB3 was only newly released and yet many of the comments you have here are from 2014 & 2017

Is there a new release of this product?

Wall (Flat) HC90DCXB3 (90cm, Stainless Steel)

Why is this such a crap product? I have replaced my lights with the recommend replacement LED product 3 X now and can't get them to stop flickering or prematurely failing ???? Please help! It just doesn't have sufficient draw to duct steam from egg's when they are boiling directly under the central vents when set on the maximum fan strength ???

I have had only had this product less than a year within the first month I had to replace 2 of the exraction fliters the spring that holds it together is flimsy.. I have to be so careful and Fisher and Paykel refused to replace one of them But Harvey Norman steped in and gave me another.. I also find unless I have the fan ser on maximum strength lll (boost) when boiling water it will run down the flash back otherwise. . My lights a flickering a little also guess it may just be a matter of time before I will have to replace these.

I will talk to F & P and if there is no resolve to their addressing this problem then I'll take it to mediation as is my right under the NZ Consumer Guarantees Act (not fit for purpose).

Yep, the same flickering here. It's caused by a crappy brightness control circuit. It's either a case of bad circuit design or using low quality components. You have to learn to live with it! :-(
As an owner of a HC90DCXB3 extractor, I'm so disappointed with Fisher & Paykel who used to make quality products in the past.
