Choosing your Wood Stove
It seem to me ridiculous to copy all the manufacturers' brochures on to my web page. Far better that you look at their own pages which will have nearly all the information you require. When you have chosen one or two models you can phone or visit the showroom to see the stove or get a price. By each hyperlink I have put my personal comment about the manufactures and their stoves. These are my opinions, but remember you are going to look at the stove for many evenings so aesthetics must be your primary consideration.

Top of the range mixture of steel and cast stoves, well made and solid.
