Review of Lovenholm stove

Great log burner

Nick Moon 9 years ago

Recently had this log burner installed, the large window and clean design made me choose this model. A few reviews had me questioning whether I had made the right decision and I was a little worried on the relatively small size of the firebox however, I can confidently give this stove a great review. It heats my open plan home and the large window gives a great view of the flames. The fire is easy to get going and the air wash works great, I had no trouble finding the optimal settings. Very pleased with this burner and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others. The only thing I can find wrong with this stove is the handle... After only a few uses the paint came off, it also gets too hot to open without gloves. A small gripe in the grand scheme of things.
