I came across the Rinnai Katana hood with the glass top hob for $1199, is this a good deal? Anyone using the Katana hood? Is the suction enough for asian cooking?

expensive!not worth it and the glass hob is hard to maintain!consider a draw out hob instead.

what's a draw out hob?

wow seems to be quite ex leh. where you get this quote from?

From Rinnai showroom itself. Outside i asked for the same model, they quote me 1650. I'm still trying to find a better deal for it.

rinnai katana hood is the hood that's angled at 45degree right? Which glass hob is included in your $1199 package?

I've been using RB-3CG for the past 3 years and really love it as its easy to clean. My family had used stainless steel hob and enamel hob before but so far this is the easiest to clean. The hob is made from Japan and comes with inner burner built in hob. The price has gone up since.

Thanks for sharing. Right now i'm still in a dilema. not sure whether to get the Katana or those normal chimney hood with big suction...

I also want to buy a rinnai.

Because my wife or either me will does cooking, decided to install a chimmy hood with greater sucker power between 900 m to 1200 m.

Some more my kitchen is very near the balcony where all the clothes are hang. Have to closed all door and get a bigger suction type to prevent the smoke getting out and stain the smell to my clothes.. dilemma.

Hi kewin,

the rinnai 3cg is a good choice. My parents bought it at asia excel at 292 balestier road half a year ago from desmond. I think they bought it at $915.00.

You can can desmond at 62569908. Just say you are from the forum..... sure good price.....

If you're open to other brand, try Fujioh. www.fujioh.com.sg

Hi All,

Fujioh 773 SVGL on the website show that it come safety valve feature . How come the show told me need to add $30 per burner for a safety valve?

I already email the distributor for more information.

Thanks

Rinnai Stove not good. After use for about 2 years, stove will rust.

When I give feedback, the customer service people told me is chrome coating below the black burner head. Why not stainless steel?

Very disappointed with Rinnai stove's quality. Not only the fire is too strong for slow cook soup, the stove's rings also rusty. Not worth the money.
