Stove crack

Andrew Hopwood 11 years ago

Yes had this stove for about 20 months and thought it was great until I noticed a 5 cm crack at the top of the stove. Please beware I have noticed others with the same problem on this site it does appear to be quality issue as I have only used the stove as instructed.

Stove expert replied: The cast craking can be down to many causes and this shoudl be investigated further. A stove thermometer will insure that it is ioperated within the correct perameters and is a good investment.
