Review of Woodwarm Fireview doublesided stove

Woodwarm Fireview double sided 9kw

Stuart 12 years ago

I carried out loads of research into double sided stoves at one point favouring Hunter. However the build quality of the Woodwarm against the Hunter, feedback obtained both online and from tradesman pushed me to buy the Woodwarm. It was installed 3 months ago. We're coming into Winter and haven't put the heating on which is great. And the output from the 9kw stove heats two rooms, 1 large 1 smaller easily. I was worried that the power would roast the smaller room finding it difficult to get advice on choosing a kw that would fit the bill between 2 different room sizes. This hasn't been an issue and the controls on the stove work really well from either side. I knocked through a wall to allow the doublesided stove and its really made our house. Everyone comments on it as a feature. Only niggle - difficult to get it to burn overnight but not impossible. In reality its easy to relight and not a problem. Really well done Woodwarm, a Great British stove - and roll on Winter!!

    I hope that you've resolved the overnight burning issue by now, we've had no problems. If you roar the fire up last thing, add another log or two, let them catch, and then turn it right down it should be still there in the morning. Even if there's only a glimmer of red showing in the morning, open it right up, go make a cup of tea and it will come straight back. Always works for me.
