Using the method in the instructions it would be just 45cm off the
worktop!

I've looked at others and none seem to go as short as I need, so I
can't even send it back and get something else.

It seems odd to me that the minimum adjustment on the majority of
hoods is at best marginal above a gas hob, given modern ceiling
heights. As the innards of a hood do not seem to be particularly
densely packed, I am at a loss to understand why this is.
