Review of Franco Belge Belfort stove

Franco Belge Belfort Gas stove

John Rowe 6 years ago

We have had our stove for more than 15 years and it has always been excellent. Unfortunately the insulation around the cable that joins the petzel starter to the igniter has crumbled and now the thermocouple has packed up. Is there a way of having the stove refurbished as the stove condition is just like new.

Stove expert replied: There are several spare part outlets which may be able to assist but should the part not be available any longer it is unlikely that it can be refurbished using non genuine spares.
