Review of Firefox 5 stove

Disappointed

Patrick MacArthur 12 years ago

Bought the fire 15 months ago and used it since. It has provided us with great heat for this period but unfortunately the top plate is cracked. I have found out to my cost that the fire only has a one year guarantee so I have to pay for a new top plate plus fitting - cost £300. Oh how I wish I had bought a Morso like my other fire as it has a more realistic guarantee.
