Review of Charnwood Cove 2 stove

Cove 2b

8 years ago

Bought this stove 2 years ago , I've had Aarrow and Hunters before , sorry to say I have removed the Cove 2 b as I found it wouldn't draw properly it needed an air flow on the door I'd say , I've replaced it with another Aarrow and after 2 years of struggling to get hot water and radiators we are now struggling to stay cool , the Cove looks nice but I wouldn't have another one and I paid around £2000 2 years ago and had to pay again to stay warm this winter so a waste of money , I've had stoves for 25 years and this was the worst so far
