Review of Dovre 250 stove

Majolica Bruin Stove

Lisa Donaghy 10 years ago

I bought this stove 7 years ago and was delighted with it. Unfortunately 5 years later the enamel started to flake quite badly, I contacted the supplier who In turn contacted the manufacturer who replaced the stove. Again I was delighted with the stove however not 2 years later the same problem occurred. This time the supplier and the manufacturer claim that the guarantee only applies to the original stove not the replacement so therefore no guarantee. I feel this is completely unacceptable, as there was nothing I could have done to prevent the enamel flaking as I always adhered to the maintenance from the manufacturing guidelines. I would be very interested to hear if anyone has had similar issues.
