Review of FDC 5kw

About the best value around

Andt Genovese 9 years ago

FDC are in my opinion about the best value for money there is. The stoves are simple, robust and efficient (80+%). I fit stoves for a living and I am impressed by FDC for packaging, finish, easy of use, customisation (black handle and stainless air controls) and price.
