Review of Stovax Riva 40 multi fuel

Great little Stove

Mac MacIntyre 11 years ago

I had this stove in my last house and we got on great with it. It wasn't a huge room but the stove was smack in the middle of the house and it gave of a fantastic heat. It was a bit fiddly to clean but I've not really had a stove before so they might all be like that. I liked that we could take off the handle and stop the kids from getting involved.

I know it was a wee bit expensive but it fitted perfectly and we loved it. I just wish the big free standing one for the new house was cheaper.
