Review of Firebelly FB2 stove
Firebelly FB"
The build quality of the FB2 is superb. We also have the double-sided glass version. The heat output is fantastic, even my sister and sister-in-law who are the coldest people on earth, get too hot in our house. The controlability is also great as the two top slides instantly switch the heat to either side of the unit. The massive downside is the glass getting sooted up. For me the aesthetics of seeing the fire burning were the over-riding decision for spending more on this item. I used to be in a routine of cleaning it once a month and getting it spotless. This is now a chore, and with three little ones to look after our time is quickly used up. Instead I eventually sit down and stare at the sooted up glass, wishing it was clean. We have found that if you spray and leave Mr Muscle oven cleaner it does just wipe off, but it's an incredibly messy job as you can imagine mixing any ash with liquid.
\n\nOverall we do love it, we'd just assumed that the glass would stay a lot cleaner than it does.
