Review of Jotul F 100

very nice little stove

Lars Koerdt 15 years ago

I've used the F100 for one winter in a previous property and it is a good stove. Only real downside is the absence of an ash pan, which if you are using the stove a lot can be a bit of a pain. Cleanburn works, glass stays clear with the airwash. There is nothing really negative about the stove, but the typical Jotul 'not quite so easy to light' situation requires you to leave the door ajar for a little while after starting the fire. Good product, well made.
