Review of Stovax Brunel 2cb stove

enamel failure

Elaine Baguley 12 years ago

I'm afraid I cannot recommend. The enamel on my stove seems very brittle and easily damaged and now a large area on the lid has cracked and is flaking off despite relatively light usage. I am not sure if this is just a poor example but beware as it certainly detracts from the appearance.

Stove expert replied: What a shame, how old is the stove? There is a 5year warranty on Stovax Stoves, have you made a warranty claim?

    Sorry to disagree but Stovax only offer a 2 year warranty,somewhat surprising on an item this expensive.They suggest buying a replacement top for the stove which seems very unsatisfactory and really will not help further.
