Don't wast your hard earned wonga ! Save a bit more and go for one of the new more efficient stoves . I have a Burley at 98% efficiency but there are other makes that are similar .

 

Not a case of saving........my landlord has given me a £500 budget to buy a burner.

I bought a hamlet from scats reduced from 579 to 299 made by arda in dorset seems a good efficient stove to me but I am no expert. Seems better than our hunter in the lounge.

300-350 is a cheap chinese stove. Average life 3-5 years.

 

A Morso has a life of over 30 years, more if you look after it. If you can find one then a used one at perhaps £500 is a good buy, you should have no problem getting any spares if a bit of TLC is needed but make sure they are genuine ones as there have been some chinese parts to fit Morso's coming in, mainly top baffle plates. There is a member here that reconditions and sells used Morso's, he will I am sure comment in due course and may well be able to help.

 

I would recommend a better quality used stove but do appreciate things are tight. Cheaper stoves, then look at Carron, their 4.7kw stove is basic but well made at yours for about £500.

 

If you are not in a hurry sometimes used bargins can be found on e bay etc during the summer, no bargins this time of year though.

ive fitted a few of these that customers have sourced off the internet

they have all been very happy with heat and efficiency, could be a cheaper option as times are hard

False economy; poor build, poor heat output, eat wood :thumbdown:

 

Just completely abandon your cheap woodburner idea and concentrate on quality. Or as above - good used.

Hi

I'm just getting used to using an Efel here that is good but I think they're expensive to buy new.

 

I need a new grate for it 39 cm x 49 cm of mild steel I think with 27 holes drilled in it. Only place I could trace replacement parts was a UK website quoting cost over £200 excluding delivery.

 

Made one with a piece of steel I found lying around with a grinder

I had one a few years ago all the paint burnt off and you could not shut it right down and it was burning too fast. They did take it back for a full refund though, then I bought a Charnwood what a difference.
