Lovely stove

Had it since November, and it's been lovely. Had it fitted without a liner by a Hetas installer after having a full smoke test carried out, and Hetas installer and Hetas chimney sweep advised I'd be absolutely fine without a liner. and it's been marvellous. Air wash great as long as burning dry wood, heat output is great considering the small size of the stove, it looks lovely, has a removable handle so you don't burn your hands. Doesn't burn great over night with wood, but it'll burn fine over night if you use smokeless coal and turn it right down. I've not had a single problem with it and it saved me when my heating went funny. It's also good in terms of fuel consumption when I compare it to my stove in my last house, a 5kw Charnwood Island. Well priced as well, £750 for a Defra approved British made stove.
