Review of Dunsley Highlander 5 stove
Delighted with this stove
We have the Enviroburn Solo model of this stove. Solo is just a styling difference: slightly more modern in appearance. My wife did tons of research including this site (thanks) and chose the Dunsley as it appeared to be the only multifuel that was totally approved for smoke exempt(wood AND coal) in this price range. (I paid £745.)
It's unbelievably easy to light, rolled up newspaper, few sticks, log on top, away you go. The grate has two positions, open for coal and closed for wood. This also doubles up as a riddler but because of the stove's small size the riddler is not very effective. Easier to open the grate then push the ash about with a poker so it drops through into the ash pan. There are two slider controls, one at the bottom of the stove, one at the top. The top is mainly to control the airwash. This stove is supremely controllable. We have no problem keeping it in overnight using smokeless ovals with a bit of ash on top. Because the stove is so controllable you can, once you've got it going, keep it ticking over with hard wood logs in a very economical way, a few logs will last all evening. To sum up, we couldn't be happier with this stove. I recommend it to you.Stove expert replied: Good review of this model, happy customer.
