Review of Fireline FP5 stove

Fireline woodtec 5

David Taylor 3 months ago

Have owned this wood burner for 3 winters now and it is rubbish. The rear fire bricks cracked 2 months in to ownership followed 1 month later by the baffle plate buckling. This plate has now melted a hole 2x1 inch .the warranty makes a good fire starter.

2x8 inch Ash logs 45 minutes. Leave it any longer and the fresh logs will not burn correctly.

Have owned multi fuel burners for 30 years pluss.

I am going to replace the fire for a clear view.

Positively the glass stays clear and the fire looks nice.
