Review of Stratford EB 20 HE

Brilliant

Patrick McGuigan 9 years ago

Had this stove fitted recently. Delighted with it's performance so far. Comfotably heats 14 radiators brilliantly, loads of really hot water, and with 3' of exposed flue pipe it gives brilliant heat to the room it's located in.

Minor downsides are that the airwash could be slightly better, especially with non smokeless coal, the ashpan could be bigger so that ashes don't fall outside of it, but otherwise do not hesitate to buy this stove, you will not be disappointed. :-)
