Review of Carron enamel stove

Carron 4.7 Cream Enamel Stove

Sheryl Sett 14 years ago

Looks Great! Very small firebox so means we have to use well spilt logs or only 1 or 1 large ones. Have to work up in log size before a large one can be put on as a bit hard to keep going. Handle keeps falling off just needs tightening i think. Handle gets very hot. Glass was keeping very clen indeed but a piece of paper has just burnt against it and has not permanently discoloured it. Heard glass creraking noises, which got me worried. Doesnt fill the room with heat but that could be because ours is well inset into a raised hole in the wall hearth. All round a lovely little stove.Dont know about keepiing it in all night yet but I exect its highly unlikely due to its size. :)
