    This is a lovely stove and very good value - it kind of contemporary but with the bulk of a proper stove, throws out lots of heat and the glass stays clean with seasoned wood. I looked everywhere... [read more]

Despite trying various fuel combinations its impossible to keep lit overnight, max burn time for a full load is approx 3 hours. Only had the stove 3 months and am looking to replace it. ...

    Stove expert replied: When all vents are fully open I would expect the stove to start getting very hot and flames to be dancing in the firebox, if this is not haoppening the flue draw may not be very good or a different smokeless fuel may be better.

    Stove expert replied: If you have little control of the stove and can't achieve a slumber mode you may have an over-drawing flue and this can be recitifed by a flue stabilizer. This will enable to stove to heat more effectively and should cut down on fuel.
