Firefox 8 poor quality

I have had one stove replaced and the new one has the same problems. When burning wood using the top air slide it works fine on full but as soon as I start to close the vent the fire burns better on the right hand side . Leaving the glass door half clean half black . I have checked and checked again and don't no what the problem is . As it is the stove is neither use nor ornament . Any advice would be great ....

Stove expert replied: Seems very disappointing and strange that the air control will only work on full, I would suggest going back to the supplier to see if something can be done under warranty.
