Review of Morso Panther stove

Panther

Mike Bee 9 years ago

I've had the panther on my boat for nearly 10 years and I only have one complaint: With the flue coming out of the top of the stove and the round blanking plate fitted over the back flue outlet, the "funnel" on the inner back plate will fill with ash which you can't easily clean out. Eventually the acidic ash will corrode the bolts holding on the round blanking plate and it will be pushed off by the corrosion. What is the point of the funnel shape on the inner backing plate exactly?

Stove expert replied: I am not aware of the reasons behind the manufacturers designs,. Having had the stove for nearly 10 years components will show signs of wear and tear. Otherwise this stove has performed well.
