Review of Jotul F3 stove

Jotul F3

Colin Bidgood 15 years ago

I installed this woodburner in my lounge 11 years ago.

i burn only wood for about 7 months of the year. 24/7 in the winter months.

i cant rate it highly enough. it is fantastic quality and so nice to look at. none of that boiler steel crap. the mouldings on the elevations make it well worth the extra that it costs.

i would not part with it.

i had the blue black enamel finish, just a quick wipe with a damp cloth and its like new again. mine is still mint and i have burnt so many tons of timber over the years. buy and enjoy.
