Review of Saey Scope stove

Saey Scope woodburner

Caspian 17 years ago

I bought this stove as my only form of heating and I am absolutely loving it. It is very heavy and was tricky getting it up the stairs! The design and build quality is typically German- excellent. I gave burning overnight a 3 because I don't do it. The controls are very precise and the airwash works fine. I use the side loading door when the stove is alight as no smoke escapes into the room. I can fit huge chunks of wood into it and it burns them through. This stove puts out a lot of heat but you can close both vents and the fire will go out, unlike some stoves I have had. I would buy another one if I had space! Really good value for money, as in you get a lot of metal for your money.
