Review of Franco belge Savoy Elegance - MKII
Savoy elegance II - same probs?
We installed the stive 3 months ago. We have burnt seasoned hardwood in it.\n\nThe stove is smart and tidy and has a great window that allows you to see the fire. It produces a lot of heat and has made a big difference to our front room. Sadly the fire brick has cracked at the back and has has cracked in the ceiling. The vent controls at the top have jammed and the bolt has come off. Our suppliers say that it is still in waranty, so hopefully the stuff will be replaced. We have been careful placing wood in the stove. For £850 these elemental problems should not have happened.\n\nThe stove makes loud clicking noises. I have put these down to the expansion and contaction of the metal. Even with the vents turned down - when we could - a lot of smoke gets out of the stove and into the atmospehere of the room on re-fueling. \n\nThese long standing problems are regretable because the stove otherwise is very good.\n\n
Stove expert replied: the smoke coming out is probably more down to chimney than the stove. I would hope that the other problems are sorted by the supplier.
