Review of Morso Squirrel Cleanheat stove

Fantastic stove

Martin 15 years ago

This is a fantastic little stove. We originally bought it because it was one of the few small stoves that could fit inside a standard size UK fireplace. Later we decided to open up our fireplace, so we could have bought a bigger stove, but there would be absolutely no need because this throws out a tremendous heat.

This stove is the ultimate in controllability (we have used different stoves). The combination of primary and secondary air vents allows you to control air flow and burn rate to perfection. There's nothing like it.

We find we can light the stove at 6pm and add 1 piece of hardwood log later in the evening and that lasts until 10pm. The control of air flow controls the burn rate that allows you to achieve this kind of economy.

As you can tell, we absolutely love this little stove and would recommend it 100%. The quality is fantastic. It will last your life time, and probably your child's too!
