Review of Franco Belge Monaco stove
Franco Belge Monaco Problems
This is a good looking efficient stove but it seems there is a common design problem which in our case has made it unusable: The baffle plate has warped so the gap for smoke to enter the flue is minimal and smoke pours into the room everytime its replentished. I am trying to get a replacement baffle plate under warranty but my dealer wants £80 plus VAT to replace it as its two years old. We use heatlogs, logs and smokeless fuel. As it has a tertiary air supply it won't stay in overnight.
