The property I have my eye on has everything Samsung, and while it isn't an eyesore, it's evident that the general design and look/aesthetics of the house was not considered into the purchase. It would suck to just throw them out/sell on the market again seeing as the appliances are a year old, and I have no real reason to spend wads of cash on appliances again, especially after land transfer taxes, legal fees, and whatever comes with closing costs.

Interesting part on the Miele hood fan; I always thought Asian brands like Sakura and Pacific were at the top of their game.

Which model number of hood range do you have? This is likely something I will replace, depending on where I end up buying.
Hood fan is not that easy...

There are chimney, insert, pro, under cabinet...etc styles.

You need to check your duct size first.

Miele dual blower can do 1100 CFM, not 1200 CFM, which means you will need 10 inch duct. Also, it will cost close to $4000
Also, that hood has to be 36inch wide, so dual motors can fit in.
Otherwise, the blower has to be external mounted outside your house.

If you cant have 10inch duct, don't to anything more than 700 CFM.

Typical houses, might have 6-8inch duct.
Town houses, Apartment might have 5-6inch duct.

Basically, if you only have 6-8 duct size. Sakura or Pacific brands are still very good for the power.
They are rated at 680 CFM.

Sufficient cfm calculation is like this -> Total amount of Gas Cooktop burners BTU / 100 = sufficient CFM.
If you have electric stove or cooktop, normally, 600 CFM is more than enough.
