Review of Carron enamel stove
Carron Stove cream 7KW
Wanted a cream stove and liked the Carron colour and stove for occasional use.\nBought this cream stove in the East and fitted December, Built up the heat over a couple of weeks from kindling fire.\nWorked well, heated the room well while burning seasoned ash no coal.\nAirwash worked where the airflow reached so had to clean in between.\nThe door didn't fit well and drew in air when the vents were closed so difficult to control.\nlate January noticed cracks and flaking on top leading edge this increased with use and cracks appeared along left top side.\nContacted supplier looking for resolution after series of questions and photos got a replacement.\nSupplier or importer reported no reported problem so had a specialist look at it to check quality of enamel to back my case.\nUnpacked on delivery found the lower hinge bent and cracked and door did not seat well and found the colour was darker cream.\nSupplier really attentive and got refund. \nwhile looking for new stove found another vendor with same cracking/flaking awaiting return to importer.\n\nShame as we liked the style and colour.\n\n
Stove expert replied: Enamel stoves will tend to change colour a little when they are hot. Shame that this stove had more problems though.
