Review of Morso s10-40

Disappointed

Emily Ledson 10 years ago

We have had the Morso S10-40 for a year now and I would agree with a couple of other reviews. The firebrick cracked in less than a year. Morso were good and quickly sent a replacement. However, that isn't the only disappointment.

We have to have the door open to get it going and when we shut the door it dies. We rarely have it going well enough to be able to turn it down and it often doesn't really put out enough heat for the room although it is the right kW for the room.

We were told by the stove supplier that an Airbrick is only required for stoves over 5kw.

We bought the Morso based on some positive reviews and because of the brand reputation but so far we've been really disappointed. We had an approved hetas engineer fit it. I'd be really glad if someone could tell me if it is the stove or something wrong with the installation as it cost a lot of money
