Review of Riva 66 Multi-fuel Fire

Fantastic

Andy Shakespeare 15 years ago

I looked for months to try and buy the right stove for my new build, not knowing anyone else with an inset burner I had to rely mainly on the Manufactures facts. I have just started using the stove and I can't believe how easy it is to control, if you open the bottom vent it is like turning a gas fire up as it is instant. The fire stays in all night when shut down and all you need to do is load the logs open the vent and away you go again.You do get a little bit of spillage when you open the door but that is only to be expected. This fire is absolutely brilliant, it is one of my better purchases, if you are looking for a multi fuel stove you have come to the end of your search.
