Review of Stovax Stockton 5 stove

poor quality

8 years ago

Very poor, need to sort out the problems with doors .Just checking before they leave the factory would be an idea ?The seal to the glass on the front door was poorly fitted 25 mm short. Later found that the bottom coal effect bracket was broken too . I think that Stovax/Gazco need to check their goods before sending them out .So now I am left looking for a alternative gas stove as this is going back.
