Review of Bohemia 40 stove

x40 cube-fantastic

Charlotte 12 years ago

Had the x40 cube for a year now and really love it!!

We have a 3 bed semi so didn't have the room for anything bigger so this is just perfect! Heats the whole of downstairs as all open plan and if its on all day and night heats whole house!

Very easy to light and control and the airwash is great if you don't overload it!

If burning coal the ashpan needs emptying every day if logs it can last 3-4 days, very easy to clean out.

Won't burn overnight but this is due to the firebox being smaller and you can't get enough fuel in there to last all night! If this is important to you get a bigger stove!

We love it, its very efficient!!

Stove expert replied: Empty ashpans at least daily if using smokeless fuel as if it builds up it can shorten the life of the grate system.
