Faultless
We had a 6kw fireview in our home in Devon for 16 years. It was truly excellent. The only thing replaced in all these years were the fireboards and one new door handle. Airwash worked well andStove expert replied: Nice comments. I am sure that you could get one transported to Spain if this is the stove that you require. Transportation is not an issue these days with many carriers making routine deliveries to European countries.

Woodwarm 6.5Kw Multi-fuel Stove
This stove does everything the manufacturer claimed. The airwash system works well, we only have to rub a piece of newspaper over the glass before lighting and it's clean again. I recommend

Fireview is the true ''Clearview'' Wood burner when correctly installed
Our Woodwarm Fireview 6Kw performs fantastically, so controllable, it has been in 6 years now and is on its second rear insulation board, the second one had to be changed, as the sweep did -

Odd noise eminating from fire

Something Wrong?
WOODWARM 9kw DOUBLE SIDED This was installed in 2011 and, although efficient, has given us problems. We are careful and only use recommended solid fuel and well seasoned wood 1. The glass on both doors quickly became opaque. It didn't crack or break but simply became 'crazed'. The glass was replaced at some expense this year with exactly the same effect. We must be doing something wrong - but what? Any ideas? 2. We are least impressed with the function of the operating handle. What an infuriating thing! If it's turned gently clockwise it is difficult to return to its original position due to small bits of fuel becoming stuck both between and at the end of the bars so that the bars cannot be closed properly. We prefer to use an old fashioned poker!! This stove seems to have such positive reviews that we can only assume that we are the weak link. Any advice anyone?Stove expert replied: Crazing of the glass: Explanation of the phenomena of “Crazing†in Glass Ceramic Materials: During the combustion process, fossil fuels evolve combustion by-products. These vary both in their composition and concentration, and are heavily dependent on the composition of the fuel being used, and the burn conditions within the appliance.  One of the most reactive combustion by-products found is sulphur. Under certain very specific conditions, it is possible to set up a combustion environment where a chemical reaction between the glass ceramic and sulphurous deposits, which attach themselves to the glass surface (through condensation), can take place.  Initially, this may manifest itself only as a series of white deposits on the glass (which can be cleaned off with ease). However, if these deposits are left on the glass surface over a prolonged time period and subjected to repeated thermal cycling in non-ideal burn conditions, an effect known as “crazing†(fine cracks appearing in the combustion surface of the glass ceramic window) can occur. However, the necessary combination of effects required for this phenomenon to arise in the first place, makes this a very rare condition indeed.  As the chemical resistance of all glass ceramics, falls within a very narrow range, the solutions are limited here. In extreme situations, one can look at the potential of using a high acid resistant glass such as Borofloat, however factors such as thermal shock, really need to be carefully considered before this option is considered.  Factors to be considered for minimising “Crazing†in Glass Ceramic Windows:  In-Use Guideline’s -         Minimise the use of high sulphur content fuels -         Ensure glass ceramic windows are regularly cleaned using approved (non-abrasive) materials, and any residues are completely removed prior to use  Appliance Design Guidelines -         Create an effective “air-wash†across the glass -         Maintain the inner glass panel surface to temperatures of 250 – 320°C -         Limit the use of out-gassing materials in the appliance construction Â

A GREAT STOVE
After a lot of research of other makes we opted for the Woodwarm for its build quality, parts availability and service, you actually get to talk to someone who knows their products if you want advice and they are in the UK. The stove has performed beyond our expectations and the Airwash System keeps the glass really clean. We know three other people each of whom bought stoves at the same time as we did and all of them have stoves of well know makes in respect of which they have regrets. Glass smoking up/staining, fuel capacity, difficulty in lighting etc. etc -
my trusty companion
Perhaps not as pretty as some on the market but I want ease of lighting, good control and reliability, bags of heat and essentially a view of the fire as it roars up the lum. It's the envy -
look no further
I have been using a woodwarm fireview for the past 5 years and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a stove. It looks good, is well constructed, easy to light, easy to control, gives out a comfortable heat and brings a tremendous amount of joy to all the family. So stop searching - just buy a Woodwarm. You won't be disappointed. -

Totally in Love
Having had an open fire for 12 years I decided to have a woodburner. I did my research and visited about 5 different shops. I saw the Woodwarm and loved it, the quality was obvious to see and I loved the large window. I asked my neighbour who is a woodburner supplier to find out about Woodwarm and he came back with very positive feedback. I went ahead and ordered my 6KW Fireview in honey glow and I absolutely love it. Once I realised Kiln Dried Logs work better than other types I was extremely happy. It's so easy to light, it's easy to keep clean as it seems to produce little unwanted ash, it's so easy to control and achieve the type of burn you want and with a nice chunky log I get a good overnight burn. I can get it up to temperature within 15 minutes just with some newspaper and a little kindling. I just cannot fault this burner it's brilliant.Stove expert replied: Great feedback.
