Review of Saltfire Aquaburn 30

Brilliant Stove

Phillip Jarman 6 years ago

Bought this stove 6 month ago to replace my Aarrow Stratford 70.

The price gave me concern as it was on offer for just over £700.

I took the plunge and I'm so glad I did.

Massive chamber and fantastic glass door which is more like a small TV.

My radiators are now red hot and this is running 9 of them.

If there is a down side to it, it can get through logs for fun but the performance is unreal.

If this stove was pushing up to £2000 in price I would say it was cheap.

Unlimited hot water and red hot rads what else can you ask for?

If I see this at the price I paid again I will buy one to put away till mine gives up the ghost.

Make sure you have 3 or 4 people to put it in as it is so heavy but hopefully this is a sign of how well it is made.

Stove expert replied: Great comments, you will only get out of a stove what you put in so to heat 9 radiators well it will required lots of logs.
