Review of Charnwood Country 4 stove

Charnwood C4

Christian Browning 10 years ago

This is a great stove with excellent heat output, can't believe how well it heats the house but I am currently having an issue with the internal back plate which is badly warped after only thee months. It is a wood burner only and I have a thermometer on and it never gets into the too hot zone. I have to say I am very disappointed with the dealer I bought it off and Charnwood for the delay in getting new part. After three weeks I'm still waiting and they never ring me back! The dealer has eventually agreed to take one out of a showroom model after asking for a full refund. Shame as it's a good little stove.
