At Better Home, we know that a kitchen is more than just a place to cook; it's where families gather, and flavors come alive. But with vibrant Indian cooking, comes smoke, grease, and odors. That's where the Bosch DWB68IJ60I Series 4 Wall-Mounted Cooker Hood steps in. This 60 cm chimney, with its sleek black design and intelligent features, is engineered to keep your kitchen fresh, clean, and a joy to be in.

Combining powerful extraction with intuitive controls and Bosch's renowned quality, the DWB68IJ60I is a fantastic upgrade for any modern Indian kitchen, promising a more comfortable and hygienic cooking environment.

Let’s dive into what makes the Bosch DWB68IJ60I an outstanding choice.

1. Intelligent Control & Effortless Operation

The Bosch DWB68IJ60I offers a truly modern and hygienic way to manage your kitchen's air quality.

• Touch and Gesture Control: This chimney brings futuristic convenience to your fingertips (or hand waves!). Operate it with simple hand gestures – wave right to turn on and increase speed, wave left to activate the delay shut-off. A sleek glass touch panel also provides traditional control for all functions, ensuring a fingerprint-free and easy-to-clean surface.

• 3 Defined Suction Modes: Adapt the chimney's power precisely to your cooking needs with dedicated modes:

• Boiling Mode (Speed 1): Ideal for simmering curries, tea, or milk.

• Cooking Mode (Speed 2): Perfect for standard daily cooking.

• Frying Mode (Speed 3): Offers maximum power for deep frying, tadka, and high-smoke cooking.

• Delay Shut-Off Timer: Keep your kitchen fresh even after you're done cooking. Activate the 3-minute delay shut-off, and the chimney will continue to clear lingering odors before automatically turning off.

2. Powerful Suction & Innovative Filterless Design

Designed to tackle the demands of Indian cooking, this chimney ensures a consistently clean kitchen environment.

• High Extraction Rate: With a robust suction capacity of 1300 m³/h (as per IS 3741), the DWB68IJ60I efficiently removes smoke, steam, and greasy particles, even during heavy cooking, keeping your kitchen air clean and fresh.

• Filterless Technology with Heat Auto Clean: Say goodbye to messy filter cleaning! This innovative design uses centrifugal force to separate grease particles, collecting them in an easily removable oil collector. For even deeper cleaning, the heat-based Auto Clean technology melts accumulated grease, which then flows into the oil collector. Simply press and hold the Auto Clean icon for 10 minutes, and the chimney cleans itself.

• Auto Clean Reminder: An intelligent reminder function alerts you (a blinking icon) after approximately 30 hours of usage, prompting you to activate the Auto Clean cycle for optimal hygiene and performance.

3. Sleek Aesthetics & Thoughtful Features

The Bosch DWB68IJ60I isn't just functional; it's also a stylish addition to your kitchen. For detailed visual specifications, you can refer to this product specification.
