Bora is best known for cooktop extractors. These are hobs that pull steam and cooking smells down through the cooktop, close to the pan, instead of up into an overhead hood. Around them the range includes modular domino hobs, steam ovens, warming drawers, integrated refrigeration and accessories. It suits island and open-plan kitchens where you would rather keep the space above the hob clear.
The compact venting hobs put the hob and extractor in one unit. The Pure family includes S Pure, Pure, M Pure at 76 cm wide, and X Pure, which uses surface induction with large zones so more of the glass is usable. Bora Basic uses Hyper glass ceramic instead of induction. Many models list nine fan speeds plus a booster. Most come in two versions: duct-out, which vents air outside, or recirculation, which filters the air and returns it to the room. Recirculation is easier to fit where ducting isn't practical, but the charcoal filters need replacing from time to time. Some models have a matt black Rough Surface finish. Bora Hood & Cooktop Sets bring a matching extractor and cooktops together in one package.
The modular Classic 2.0 and Professional 3.0 systems let you build a cooktop from separate domino hobs, choosing from induction, HiLight ceramic, gas and a stainless steel Tepan grill, set beside a downdraft extractor. Some of these extractors need a separate remote motor, while others have the fan built in. For cooking, the X BO steam oven is plumbed in and has a foldable 19-inch touch display. The Bora Oven Steam combi uses a removable water tank, so it needs no plumbing. Multi Drawers come in 14 cm and 29 cm heights and can warm plates, keep food warm, defrost and cook at low temperatures. You can find built-in options under Bora Built In Kitchen Appliances. Bora Refrigeration covers fully integrated frost-free fridge freezers, larder fridges, fridges with an ice box and frost-free freezers, many of them internet connected.
To narrow the choice, start with whether you can duct to an outside wall. Then decide between an all-in-one Pure hob and a modular layout that mixes cooking types, and check the width your worktop allows. Bora Accessories include an induction wok, X BO cleaning cartridges and pendant lights in black, moss green and rose gold.
