To add a comment to my recent review. The air wash can not be turned off as stated by some expert. Its a full width narrow slot at the top of the door- thats it and it 'aint' close -off-able. Now to me with this built in slot ( letting air in )how does rope in the door make any difference? In my opinion the grate at the oven bottom is massive and it does not need to be. I have used a 1/4 inch plate over

75% of this opening and the logs burn away very fast. Another prob is -no rope in the grate door, allowing no air control here !Now

before some importer/expert tries to shoot me down i have viewed prity stoves in BULGARIA and some have ropes, many do not. All have fixed air wash !. There is a picture of this stove raging away with a dish in the oven. The fire shown would cremate the food in 5 mins !I do love this stove but it is flawed. My stove is the FM

Stove expert replied: You say that some of these stoves have extra rope than your model, perhaps trying this on the grate door will help the lack of control currently being reported. It is worth trying to see if this will enable better usage of the product.
