Review of Fireline FP5 stove

Very disappointed

Sherri Inker 5 years ago

I purchased and had fitted a FIRELINE stove manufactured by Charlton and Jenrick and I have regretted every penny spent.

1. Front main knob broke on first use and manufacturer merely sent a replacement to be self fitted (I am a women living alone) hardly customer service

2. After 3 uses top vent knob snapped and broke and again unable to use fire.

This fire that I looked forward too has turned into a useless sub standard item that was with fitting extremely costly.

I have requested manufacturers to visit and view.

May be I had a poor one off the line but with so many alternatives I wish I had bought something from a different manufacture.

Think twice and thoroughly check alternatives.

Stove expert replied: Did you go back to your supplier regarding the warranty issues that have been experienced? It is a shame and unusual that you have had two knobs breaking in a short space of time. Not what is normally expected.
