• Latest Exe not the stove it used to be.

  Colin Miller 2 years ago

  I have had a multi-fuel pre CE Exe single door in my dining room for many years and has generally been very efficient & easy to operate so bought a new on October 2017 for my lounge. Regretfully
  , Stovax, the manufacturer of Yeoman stoves, has changed the highly efficient twin riddler for a single one with a poorly designed & very difficult to operate mechanism with ash frequently clogging the guide tube; altered the secondary control position & design so reducing air wash efficiency.The operating lever is also smaller, awkward to get to & much hotter as a result. The ash tray now sits on rails making the area very awkward to clean. I wrote to Stovax''s product manager about my findings as an engineer & long term user of various stoves. Letter not responded to or acknowledged. I have sold the stove & replaced it with a Clearview...far far better.

• Yeoman Exe double sided woodburner

  Nick Cave 3 years ago

  Two months in and really scratching head about this one. Gut feeling is disappointment having grown up with a log burner and with many friends not having similar problems with their logburners
  .Biggest grievance is the airwash: the glass is very dirty after each fire. Have ruled out wood - seeing same wood burned in friend''s logburners does not give same dirt on screen. Used troubleshooting in user manual so using vents correctly (anyway they have to be fully open or fire just dies away). Other grievance is its burning. Can''t get it to burn anything bigger than a small log without dying out.All in all I can get it roaring and kicking out great heat, but it''s with only small logs and at the expense of having to clean the glass the next morning!Any tips greatfully received!

  Stove expert replied: It sounds as if there is not enough air to allow combustion, is there an air brick in the room? Was a flue draw taken on installation, if not I would suggest this is undertaken to check that it meets the stoves requirements. You say the stove dies away unless using small logs, if there is little air then it is struggling to burn a small log and it will fail when anything larger is used. It is not a problem with the stove but likely to be an installation / flue issue causing the lack of performance.

• yeoman exe double door

  4 years ago

  great stove bit more expensive than standard 5kw stove but well worth it. a lot wider than a standard stove so bigger logs means less chopping. 2 door is easier to load but single door has a
  better flame picture. not had any issues in 6 years still going strong. first glass replacement this year as its got hard to see through. i have the multifule kit and its also defra approved for smoke restricted areas. top marks

• Yeoman Exe Multifuel Burner

  4 years ago

  I purchased a yeoman Exe; which is at the end of a long line of multiple varieties of woodstoves that I have used over the past 30 years. I am really not happy with it having given it some
  time.. The mechanisms for the damper and door fastenings are primitive and difficult to use. The door fastening is a semicircular plate that grates and is fiddly and the dampers difficult to adjust and just feel tacky. We have a Charnwood in another room and its just not even in the same league. So nil points from me I am afraid.

• Efficient Stove, Good Output but Ash Tray Retainer Poor Design

  5 years ago

  Our Exe is one of two stoves in this old cottage, the other is an imported Suffolk Lark. The Exe gives the greater heat output but mechanically more complicated - the ash tray retainer is awkward
  to remove & locate back in place, such that my partner finds it too difficult. Over many years, I have used Suffolk Lark, Yeoman, Villager, Franco Belge, Godin & Coseyfire Oakley. All the non Yeoman were easier to operate so I will modify or replace the Exe with a Coseyfire at less cost.

• Fantastic Exe (single door)

  Matt Jessop 5 years ago

  Had this installed back in August 2015 to replace our open fire. Once we had worked out how to make it work for us (light it early to let it heat up) and worked out the best air vent positions
  , this has really won our hearts. Lovely and toasty, a wide firebox and the single door opens nice and wide and looks fantastic.So much less mess than the open fire, more heat and easier to use. We couldn't be happier (or warmer) this winter !

  Stove expert replied: Great review and refreshing to see that a customer has taken time to learn about how to get the best from the stove, not just expected everything to be perfect from day one.

• OLD yeoman

  Ronrushbrook 5 years ago

  Unfortunately I have been informed by a couple of local service engineers that it no longer meets current regulations so they are unable/unwilling to carry out any repair. Now looking at replacing
  with new model as I’m so pleased with the function

  Stove expert replied: They still make the Exe but after 30 years a new version should be more efficient. What a great review for this old timer!

• Air wash control will not move

  Denis Sayer 6 years ago

  We have had our stove about 7 years. We have always found the air wash control difficult to move but it will not move now. The maintenance sheet suggests cleaning the inside of stove. This
  has not helped the problem.
