Review of Charnwood c4 stove

Best stove I’ve ever owned.

Alan Krasno 7 years ago

The C4 is a mid price smaller stove but the quality is faultless. It can be controlled with one push lever with a clear click for each setting. One match and in a few minutes you've a roaring fire. If you're too hot a push on the lever and the fire subsides.

To refuel the handle is wooden which sounds odd but you can open and close the door without gloves if you take care. The window is large but in proportion to the stove which looks contemporary but fits with a traditional setting such as mine. I went for the mutifuel so I can have an ash pan to make cleaning easier and it's great for logs about 10 inches long.

Yes. Definitely the best stove I've ever used or seen.
