    Placement of the oven does not concern me, what does and always do, is that pathetic exhaust fan above it, which may or may not be connected to the outside by a duct, but in either situation, it’s a low quality system that does not even remove 50% of the cooking aroma, it’s like no one has ever figured out how to make one for home use that is effective and not sound like a jet engine. I’ve seen $2 million dollar condos that have that problem.

      Ok it’s not just me. The one in my house clearly had a duct but the previous owners removed it. Now the range hood exhausts out the front directly into your face.

        Maybe they had an olfactory disability and needed assistance with identifying when they were poorly cooking their meals

      I’ve lived in a couple of apartments in Norway where they had a genius solution to the problems you mention (except the jet engine sound): it sends all odours to your NEIGHBOURS who have their kitchen right above or below yours 😎

      (warning:it works both ways. So if your neighbours are cooking you better turn it on, and you better set it to superjet mode, because the strongest decides where the odours go.)
