Ekol Edge Wood Burning Stove - 5kw nominal (3-7kw to room) Review by Natural Heating 

It is. Very much so. We’re installing this one tomorrow on a log store. It’s not the original log store for the model (but it’s been approved for us to do so) There is an actual log store for this model coming in summer

There is all sorts in that basket. All under 20% - barn stored. My local guy does good wood. Typically, it's mainly a mix of ash, oak and sycamore. Birch is classed as a hard wood - but it's a lighter one and lights fast and gets hot fast. I like to use something like birch to get up to temperature and for the first burn cycle or two before moving on to harder / slower burning woods. Just birch and those little bags would be expensive. When we can, I typically send the fitters out with a little starter pack for my customers that includes kindling, firelighters, coffee mugs, home made cake and a bag of wood. That way, they can commission the stove with the customer... talk them through using it and "I" know they're gettign t he results they should for that first fire as I send everything. It's a bench mark for later on - so if my customer has any issues, we go back to basics and work through what they are doing from the fuel to lighting proceedures etc and I know why something isn't working right. Most normally, any issues are customer error and easy sorted. Thanks for your comments. Hope this helps :-)

Glad you enjoyed it

It won't get hot enough. The whole point is to keep the actual bodyshell as cool as possible for fitting close to combustibles. It's therefore designed to push heast forwards as much as possible and limit heat through the casing.... Hope that helps

@@robertleckie1732 hello. Hard to do without more info. You’d be best to come and visit or give me a call on 01953 452525 Biggest stoves we actually keep in terms of output are Hunter Herald 14 double door and Parkray Aspect 14. They are HUGE. However, people still compare old stoves to new type stoves and they work in an entirely different way. New type stoves push so much heat into the room. Old type stoves put half the heat into walls / openings - so projection and feel is totally different

Doesn't feel it at all - and it's a fair amount of money..... Think in most cases, it would benefit looks wise from some little legs

Not the price. £1600. 😮
