Aarrow Ecoburn 9 stove Hot

A good working stove. I have two gripes. The throat plate keeps slipping off the side fire bricks at the front and down into the fire and the door handle becomes extremely hot - could it not have been made with another material.

Stove Expert Replied: Ensure that the side liners are not pushed to the back of the firebox, they should be off the back by approx 1" this should then prevent the throat plate from falling off! The stove is supplied with a mitt to prevent anyone from burning their hands. There used to be a cooler to touch handle but it may not fit this model, worth following up though if causing a problem!

I was looking for a fire to replace my old Aarrow one and chose the Ecoburn 9 multifuel. At first I was disappointed because I couldn't get it to stay in overnight. So I removed the grate bars, put some firebricks in the bottom of the fire instead, and now I burn my wood fire on top of the firebricks on a thick layer of ash and cinders. It works perfectly. It burns overnight without a problem often on only one big log. In general in cold weather I have it running 24h/24h and just chuck some kindling in, in the morning to start it up again.

Stove Expert Replied: There is a designated wood version of this model. Wood tends not to stay in well on the grate system unless mixed with a smokeless product due to the air gaps between the grate. Best to choose a woodburner if wood is being used.

This stove has been a godsend to us during the current cold spell (Jan 2010).
Without it, we would have been in a lot of trouble as we are renovating our home and the central heating is out of commission. The stove has met all of our heating needs admirably, and has been a great investment. The landscape format of the stove allows for a wide firebox - less chainsaw work if you cut your own firewood as I do. Put some oak or a bed of coal on last thing at night and it is a cinch to keep the fire in overnight.

I'd recommend this stove to anyone who need good output for reasonable value.

Burns well, very generous heat output when working at capacity. No problems experienced in two winters.

not a bad stove for the money. Does everything we would want it to do and gives out a good heat.

Only down side is its hard to keep in overnight.
