Cooker Hood Search..?

    I am in the process of refurbishing a kitchen but am stuck with the replacement of a cooker hood. I took out the existing integrated extractor which was broken, leaving a gap of 600mm between two units. The issue I am having is nearly every suitable hood is nearly exactly 60cm and just too tight to fit between the units.

    Would anyone have any ideas on whether I can purchase a 59cm hood that isn't mad expensive..? Am thinking I might have to resort back to an integrated hood, but I would prefer a chimney hood type if at all possible..
    Have checked a lot of 60cm hoods to see if they come in at 59 - 59.5 to give me that little space I need but no luck so far...

    Amazon

    Search 50cm chimney hood. Don't think you'll find anything closer.

    Very very hard to find anything smaller than 600mm through normal retail channels.

    Have a look here https://www.mk2shop.co.uk/appliances/big-appliances/cooker-hoods.html
    I saved a lot with them, delivery wasn't the quickest but they had to build a wooden crate for the cooker hood to ship, it's a real oddball size.

    Done that....:)
    Luxair model I saw was slightly less than 600mm but was a few hundred..Not sure I'm that much of an extractor enthusiast yet...
