Buy at your own peril

Recommended by our installer. Absolutley frustrating product have had wood burning stoves for past 20years. This is the worst we have ever had cannot control the burn. starts ok then dies away very difficult to keep alight despite using both seasoned and kiln dried wood. I would certainley not reccomend this product. We are looking to replace this with something that works.

Stove expert replied: There might be a flue problem that is causing your furstration with this appliance, I would suggest you have this checked before rushing into purchasing another stove.
