Review of Clearview Pioneer 400 stove

Excellent Stove - Solid Quality Build

Luke Curley 3 months ago

My dad and I installed a dry Clearview Pioneer 400 in 1996 at my parents home. 26 years later is it still warming the sitting room, kitchen and sound lounge in the winter months without any problems. Easy to service and all parts still available, I did a full refit of bricks, griddle, glass and glass rope 2 years ago without any issues.

So impressed that I bought the exact same model one for my own very old farmhouse 3 years ago and it''s super, great heat and solid construction.
