With its quality sound, powerful performance, and striking contemporary design, Roma Groove turns the kitchen into the ultimate listening lounge. A $200 upgrade from the standard Roma Wall model, Roma Groove delivers high-tech kitchen technology without the high price tag of a complete sound system overhaul.

"Incorporating Bluetooth technology into specialty appliances, such as the range hood, redefines how these products are perceived in kitchen design," says Luke Siow, Zephyr President. "Roma Groove takes center stage in the kitchen and contributes to an upbeat environment that is inviting for family and friends. It transforms the space from a utilitarian kitchen to the ultimate listening lounge."

Roma Groove kitchen range hood offers key functionality such as playing/pausing music, skipping tracks, or changing the volume directly from the hood itself using the built-in Bluetooth controls. Available in 30- and 36-inch widths, Roma Groove frees up counterspace and eliminates the need for a separate Bluetooth speaker. Equipped with ICON Touch^® controls, Roma Groove includes Zephyr BriteStrip™ LED and dual level LED lighting, which illuminates the cooking surface and gives an intimate glow to the kitchen at night.

Additional features include five speed levels, auto delay off, baffle filters, and a 600 CFM Internal Blower with ACT 390/290 CFM. MSRP: $999.
