Review of Firebelly FB2 stove

coating

Sue Allister 10 years ago

Our FB2 works well on the whole but like many reviewers we have a problem with smoke. However, nobody mentions how the coating just peels away and it is NOT damp. I did buy it partly because I thought it looked good.The manufacturers told me that I could purchase a touch up spray but will it look as good as new? So glad now I didn't buy a brightly coloured one!
