not so good then worse – LED strip fell out because the plastic cover had deteriorated. The cover has to be replaced. A previous review had same issue. Grinding sound on all settings. Sounds terrible and like it is going doing shake itself out of the casing. It has just gone 3 years since installation so warranty is over. Replacement will be $2000. About $1700 to buy and… Read more
$300 to install. Get an extended warranty if you are determined to buy this brand. I would recommend you do not. 3 years useful life is unacceptable.
Great range hood shamefull service – I have owned the twin engined version for just over 2 years. Powerful and quiet (ducted through the roof)). Easy to maintain and have only had the one problem so far. The light cover decided to drop away which needed some tape to stop it falling completely off. Tried for over 2 hours to contact spares by phone, gave up and tried emailing with no… Read more
success. Have ordered the light strip to replace for $156.00 plus $35.00 delivery and hoping that it comes with the cover. Sirius or Arisit can not be contacted online or offline. Their service is that bad I would rather pay than proceed with a warranty claim. It appears the cover can not be bought seperate from the light bar.
Best Raneghood – Best Rangehood. So powerful but not noisy like other rangehoods. Fried Fish the other day and no smell in the house. And so so easy to clean. Very happy with the purchase. I would recommend to anyone. Show details
Powerful, quiet and easy to clean – We purchased this undermount rangehood with SEM5 external motor as part of a kitchen renovation in mid 2017. Discreetly mounted under our new overhead kitchen cabinets above a new induction cooktop. Powerful, relatively quiet and easy to clean. Show details
Works well, easy to clean and quiet – I've had this rangehood for 5 years now and it's still working well without any issues. The stainless steel baffles come out for easy cleaning. LED lighting for lower power usage. Show details
Best undermount rangehood on the market – We bought the Sirius SL906 850 rangehood on recommendation by my parents, who have been using it for a few years. We were specifically looking for an undermount rangehood and this was the most powerful one on the market in this size with 1020m3 airflow. It is simple to clean, the parts fit easily in the dishwasher. Great job Sirius!
Sleek and Stylish – I'm very pleased with the appearance of my new rangehood. Its definitely the least intrusive of any I saw in the market. It's the one our kitchen installed recommended as the best to use with an induction cooktop. The 6 year warranty you get by using the Sirius ducting is fantastic. We used the recommended installer for your area and they gave excellent service. Show details
A powerful, sleek and easy to clean rangehood – We have done quite a few kitchen renovations and new builds in our time and this is clearly the best ducted kitchen range hood we have come across and installed to date. Our unit is ducted to the outside and therefore any nasty cooking smells are removed without a fuss, its easy to clean and very discreet under our overhead kitchen cabinets. We are really happy with our purchase. Show details
Great Product – Wasn't using old rangehood as too noisy and ineffective. This new Sirius is very well built, extremely quiet on lower speeds but still has great extraction, and the filters go in the dishwasher Show details
Yet to install but was definitely best in store – While I'm yet to install this range hood I can honestly recommend that anyone interested in a quite extractor should take a look at this unit. I know my opinion only holds so much weight as I'm yet to live with the appliance but we didn't hesitate to purchase it based on the in-store demonstration and I encourage others to check it out. I'm certain that it will perform fantastically. Show details
Powerful and good looking – I needed real suction for our new kitchen as I make lots of stir fries and soups- this product is super efficient and also looks sleek and tidy - fits discretely under our cabinets. The motor for this is outside so very minimal noise from the fan. It is easy to clean - am really happy with my purchase. Show details
Love the ease of Cleaning – Just purchased this product after looking at and comparing other similar products we were sold on this one because of the ease of cleaning and maintaining the product.It also looked great and was very functional.The price was also very competitive and the promotional cash back offer was also very appealing Show details
Can't wait to use it – Have seen great reviews on this product and went out and purchased it. It is about to be installed in our new home. Love the bright LED light on it and the fact that I can wash the vents in the dishwasher to keep the clean. Compared to other range hoods out there I am exceptionally happy I chose this one.

Awesome looking, great product! – I love the fact I can clean vents in the dishwasher, and the lovely chrome finish. I also like the single strip lighting rather than the spot lights in other range hoods on the market, it lights up the whole cooking area without dark and light areas. I would recommend this product.

Really great product – Bought this on a retail sales person recommendation and couldn't be happier. The free upgrade to the double motor didn't hurt either. Really gets the job done and is nice and quiet which suits our needs. The light feature and the removable baffles are an excellent design feature that we really like. Show details
Good product, quiet, good quality – Good quality product, you pay for what you get - quality. Looks good, efficient, good lighting and easy to clean. Not the cheapest rangehood but definitely the best. Needs extra ducting and some standard clips to complete the package and to be eligble for the extended warrantee. Overall very happy. Show details
Good performance, lousy instructions – This range hood is nice, quiet and efficient, however there are a few areas for improvement: 1. The user manual/ installation instructions are atrocious. The wiring diagram for the SEM 1 model completely ignores the earth -it's not even shown! The manual actually says the unit "must not be earthed", despite the wiring harness from the motor… Read more
being supplied with an earth wire. When you ring Ariston technical support, they confirm that actually you do need to earth the unit using a screw that is not supplied. If you followed the poorly interpreted installation instructions, you could end up with an electrified range hood and ineffective electrical safety circuit. I wonder how many units have been installed in this manner and are an accident waiting to happen?
2. There are three manuals - one for the duct, one for the unit, and one for the motor. Each is equally confusing, poorly written and missing information. For example, the user is left to determine how to affix the plastic non-return butterfly duct transition on top of the undermount unit, with gaps left at front and back that require silicone. The duct flashing instruction is incomplete and does not detail how to fold the corners of the flashing under the tiles to prevent wind and rain ingress. Luckily I have done this before once or twice! The ducting kit only comes with two band clamps when four are needed. But for some reason they provide a 125-150mm adaptor which you don't require!
3. The screws at the back of the unit are very very difficult to access. The screws at the front of the unit can deform the stainless steel facing if done up too tightly, and the countersinking provided is not sufficient for the screw heads to sit flush.
Our unit was supplied with damaged buttons. Thankfully this was repaired under warranty. It is hard to see how the damage occured after leaving the factory, since the packaging is some of the best I have ever seen! The box has triple or quadruple cardboard layers and foam. And it was an undamaged box.
All up, I am hoping that the operation of the unit is far more trouble-free than the installation!
On the plus side, the LED light is excellent, the unit is quiet and provides good clearance of cooking fumes, and looks pretty good.
Overall I give the range hood 4 1/2 stars for operation and aesthetics, 2 stars for ease of installation (which would be improved by better instructions and better factory quality assurance).
Someone from Ariston really should address the wiring diagram and manual.
So glad the salesperson suggested this unit!! – We had done a lot of research on appliances for our kitchen reno and narrowed the range hood down to either the inboard or outboard motor version another local brand (S*******n). After discussing with my installer the merits of both models he was hard pressed to justify the extra costs for the outboard motor version. I approached Harvey Norman for… Read more · 1
a price on these units and they also suggested the SL906-L 850 which they did a killer price on. When I compared the Sirius against my previous choice the decision was a no brainer even with it being about $200 more expensive. Quieter running (based on comparison in store), timer delay facility, better LED lights, commercial grade baffle filters and superior style, looks and finish. Even the way the unit is packaged displays Sirius quality and attention to detail. I just can't find anything I don't like with this product!
Looking forward to getting the unit installed when the new kitchen is ready. I know I won't be disappointed.
Quality – The Sirius SL906-L850 has added a streamlined finish to my newly renovated kitchen. Great consideration went into my choice of rangehood. The LED light, easy clean baffle filters which are excellent for induction cooktops, quality stainless steel and the long warranty. I am very pleased with my purchase and highly recommend this rangehood. Show details
Quality and looks great – SIRIUS SL906-L850 - The stainless steel grill with no greasy filters to clean won me over when purchasing this undermount rangehood. You just pop the stainless steel grills in the dishwasher. I compared other brands relating to power/suction and quality material and the additional great appearance, for me this was a great choice, so much so I bought a 2nd one SIRIUS SL906-L520R for my butler's pantry to compliment the one in the kitchen.

Excellent performance – Replaced another well known brand with this one. Very quiet operation works perfectly with my 90cm stove with tempanyaki plate. Would highly recommend. Harvey Norman at Domayne great to deal with! Staff were well informed patient & happy to demonstrate. it was an easy decision when comparing with other brands. Show details
As quiet and efficient as promised – I did a large amount of research before purchasing a rangehood as we cook daily for a big family and our kitchen is open plan and part of a bigger living space. It was important to me that the rangehood I chose extracted strongly and quietly. Ours sits above a 6 burner 90cm gas cooktop, has an onboard motor and is ducted to the exterior of our… Read more

So far, I am very happy with my choice. It extracts extremely efficiently even on the lowest levels - I can see the steam disappearing towards the baffles and there are no residual garlic etc smells in the living space - and it is very very quiet. As other reviewers have mentioned, it is noisier on the highest suction setting but you would need to use this rarely if at all, as it extracts so efficiently on the lower settings. The LED light is far better than I had expected, so good in fact that we have decided not to put strip lighting under the cupboards above, as we had planned to do. The other factor I was keen on was longevity, fingers crossed it won't disappoint in this regard.

Baffle filters are great – The baffle filters look great and are easy to clean - just pop them into the dishwasher. I have the on board motor so I didn't expect it to be whisper quiet, however the unit is a lot noisier than I thought it would be. I rarely put it on level 3 as it's too loud. Show details · 1
Excellent – We debated over the cost initially however we are glad we spent a little extra as this is fantastic. the salesperson assured us it would be worth it and we aren't disappointed, the suction is fantastic and the other features are great also, you can't see it underneath the cupboards and the filter comes out and goes straight into the dishwasher, , we will recommend this to everyone who comes to our place or asks. thank you,
Great Rangehood – Viewed a number of range hoods for our new kitchen. Some had very flimsy filters and very noisy. The Sirius fits neatly within the designed joinery hood. Has LED lighting, proper durable stainless steel filters and is very quiet
Powerful Residential Rangewood & Beautiful Design – Beautiful slim line design, easy to take off for washing and ease of cleaning, excellent product. Also happy with the 4 years warranty with the installation of the Sirius ducting. Very satisfied customer. For our kitchen renovation we wanted an under mount range hood to keep the clean look of the design. We thought we needed to compromise performance for this, but now it is very productive
Perfect! Cant live with out it! – Fantastic Range hood, don't even know it on it's so silent. And very powerful exhaust extraction. Would never use my range hood in the past because of how noisy it was. Super happy!
Range hood purchase – I went to Harvey Norman to buy a replacement range hood. We looked at a Bosch similar to the existing unit and felt that the filters were less than the unit we have and would potentially have similar problems to our existing unit. The Sirius was reccomended as the collection collection system could be washed in the dishwasher. We went to HARVEY NORMAN CHADSTONE and consulted PETER SCOTT
Great fan – The sirius range hood fits neatly in position in the kitchen cupboard, it is quiet operation, it has excellent lighting over stove top with powerful fan extraction to suck up the nasty smells the duct kit is a great addition to get eliminate the smell from the house all together it iseasy to clean
Amazing – i just recently installed this, and i love the baffle filters and the quality is just amazing. would recommend this anytime
