Best 5kw multi fuel stove recommendations please

[Rwhiteheadfirewood]

As title says I’m looking for recommendations on a new 5kw multi fuel stove , im sure this topic has probably been covered before but if you wouldn’t mind sharing you’re ideas / experiences with me please I’d greatly appreciate it. £400-£500 maximum budget. 

Cheers. Rob

Buying second hand would get you a clearview 500.

not sure that would get you much brand new, to be honest.

I can’t seem to find any clearview stoves under 650. My friend has a pioneer 400 which is a nice stove but at £1100 ish is way above budget.

Surely aesthetics are going to play a big part for you too? Your going to want to like what you see. You defo wont find a certified branded stove of 5kw for your budget though. That only leaves you cheap chinese copies or secondhand purchases, personally i would hold out a little longer and save a few extra quid, get brand new and buy something branded thats got good reviews and feedback. You’ll be upwards of £800 though i would of thought. Your choice in the end though.

Take a look at ..Arada ...(Arrow and villager). I have the Hamlet solution 7 . You should find one of there stoves close to your budget .

Do you you live in a smoke control area or what size flue do you have available , theses and your low budget may limit your choices.

Any of the low output stoves from Martin Champion at The Champion Stove Company will do you. Not suitable for a smokeless zone, but great little stoves for the money and you'd get two for your budget. Between myself and friends, we had about 7 of them.

Maybe check out Saltfire.  Stovefitterswarehouse seem a straight up bunch and they seem to like them.  However if you could stretch to £600-£650 the choices of decently made stoves open up loads.

 

Don't forget to budget for liner or any other bits you need to fit the stove.

Hi. 

Not in a smoke control area, and we put in a new 6” liner in the summer ready. I have looked at the hamlet 5 , looks a nice stove.

Have you looked at a Hamlet Hardy 5:-
