Review of Dunsley Yorkshire stove

Bernie Mellows 15 years ago

Installed the Dunsley Yorkshire six weeks ago and it is a gem.Considered a cheaper alternative,but I am pleased that I went for quality. It has the feel of good old British engineering.\nGot the multi fuel boiler version,with only the hot water system connected (radiators to be added later). We are using smokeless solid fuel and have found it economical and controlable.It has not gone out since lighting,shuts back when the water is hot and burst into life after a filling a bath.\nIf you follow the instructions,(keep grate full,top up regular,dont let the ash reach the grate bars, etc)it is simple to run.\nMy only problem is with the front glass getting coated by smoke,but this is caused by having only the hot water system working at present and the stove is spending long periods shut back when water temp is met.\nWe love it and would recommend the Yorkshire to anybody contemplating a mutifuel stove.\n\n
