Quality/durability of different makes of wood burning stoves.

Great, thank you for the advice.  I acquired the stove cheaply, but don't know it's history. It looks in good order otherwise. From reading through the thread here,  I note that morso castings can fail, so possible that another failure or lack of maintenance exposed the Stove top to excessive heat. I will strip it down with a view to replacing ropes and other consumabable parts. Will add a stove top to the list. Grateful for your replies, thank you. Aula

Does anyone know whether the hunter Di Lusso R5 is reliable and of good quality and what are its competitor stoves? Thanks in advance
