Review of Dovre 250 stove

Flaky enamel

Sarah 12 years ago

The stove I bought was cream enamel. After two years at least 10% of the enamel has flaked off, especially on the top and around the collar that joins the stove to the stove pipe.

The ash riddle is too stiff to use and the control at the top right hand corner is also too stiff to alter easily.

I am quite angry about the enamel but apart from that I quite like it.

Stove expert replied: Check the warranty to see if this is covered.
