A stove that is grossly overpriced with mediocre quality. The stove quality is poor the stove was delivered with rust coming through the paintwork with thin plate steel sides. There are a lot better quality stoves on the market for a cheaper price.

\n\nWhen seals go on the doors,ash pan it is very difficult to get a decent seal. The interior fittings are poor and need frequent replacement.I have been very disapointed with this stove. The Charnwood replacement is in a different class.

\n\nIn summary overpriced poor quality and inefficient in all its functions
