Review of Franco Belge Montfort stove

Not Great!

Sue Gwynne 9 years ago

I have had my stove for 5 yrs now and it is about ready for the scrap yard! U have to have the flue swept from above (Costs more) as like other reviewers the internal parts have warped, back plate cracked 3rd time now! Yes I use the correct fuel and clean the grate etc etc....

I have a different make of stove in my kitchen that I treat the same and use the same fuel on - it is still functioning well with no issues. .. so I need not say any more!
