Review of Hunter Herald 14 stove

Glenn Millar 8 years ago

My herald 14 has worked well for past 9 years and is in excellent condition. My problem is that I need a few new "high grate bars" and have been told that my stove is too old and the bar has been changed and is not compatible with my stove.. I now have been informed that I need to replace all 17 bars to get the stove going again at a cost of over £200. CE regulations have been blamed for this and Hunter offer no concessions for the 9 as new bars on the bottom row.. I am not happy with this and will definitely not even consider a Hunter for my 3 children who are setting up new homes next year
