This is a marvellous stove. The heat output is amazing it heats two large rooms. The heat is easily controlled. Mine was installed two days before christmas and was a lifeline when the snow fall came. It takes moments to light and never fails.This stove is very economical. Buy one.

Stove Expert Replied: Westfires coming up trumps again, good looking and good heat produced. Everything you need a stove to be.

Westfire 18

Great stove, had this since September. The heat output is fantastic and it has a nice flame and big viewing window. Easy to light and control but sometimes struggled when burning some types of wood - my fault for not getting properly seasoned logs.

Westfire 18

This stove is good value for the money. It does exactly what it says on the tin. Airwash works well and the glass stays nice and clear to allow the flames to stand out. Everyone who sees it admires it. The convection slots work well and air circulates freely so the stove works very efficiently. It has been installed for over a year without a single problem.
