Review of Defiant 1610 woodburning stove

Beautiful centre piece that generates so much heat

Mike Gerrish 10 years ago

Beautiful looking stove. Fantastic build quality and attention to detail. A monster of a stove that generates so much heat, but can be controlled in an instant. Heats a room 40 ft high, 30ft wide and 50ft long, as well as all connecting rooms. Had for 1 year now and always looking forward to winter now that the Defiant is in place. Burns through the night with no problems. Added the air kit to maximise efficiency. A great investment that everyone comments about.
