Ooh, nice stoves, but do I spy some AVI speakers?
You've got a keen eye. đ and not thrown by the fact I have them the wrong way around either!
I keep raving about them in the sonos threads...
That Dovre Vintage is a lovely thing but sadly way out of budget. It was one of the first stoves I looked at, probably way too big for our needs as well would only need the 35 at very most. If there's one of these threads next winter I should be able to join in. For now I'll just bump the central heating up a bit.
The vintage was way out of budget here too, but we got a good deal on an ex display 225 MF, have been very pleased with it so far.
Just acquired a log burner, so not up to speed on stove etiquette, but why do some have small fans on top? What is the benefit?
push the heat round the room?What is the benefit?
Apologies, Just looked it up, so presumably depending on stove location and set up the fan helps to Circulate the warm air around the room.
sweet jesus! They're more popular than fatbikes!
(Yes, I've got a wood burner)

Twin4all - is the top picture the pile of reactor no. 4 at Chernobyl circa 1986?
How many gW is that bad boy pumping out?
How come everybody's stove looks clean and tidy around the base?
Ours is a horrible dirty mess and no amount of cleaning seems to help.
Just to restore some balance here's an unkempt stove in the corner with no tree, decorations or pretty much anything else for that matter nearby:

Yes, Derek it is a beast, Dru 78, 13kw max, 235kg, pretty frugal on fuel though, a brilliant stove.

Daffy / Bedmaker - do you get issues with smoke in the room when you re-stock your Morsos? I have the same as Daffy but quite often get a face full of smoke when I put more logs in. Tried the opening door slowly trick but still occasionally get smoked out! Any way of avoiding this...apart from not putting more logs on!
Nobody roasting chestnuts?

Steelfan how you finding your C4? Can you leave it going all night without the glass blacking up.
What fuel do you use?
fatalbert- great little stove and heats up pretty quick. I do sometimes leave itrunning all night simering away and yes the glass does blacken up after a while and I haven't worked out how to stop this or if you can. I use a mix of seasoned logs and smokeless fuel.
Yep, Iam also using a little smokeless fuel with seasoned logs. Iam going to pull the multi fuel grate out and just try burning logs, I shall let you know how I get on.
fatalbert/steelfan do you not find the C4 lacks controllability with only 3 positions rather than say a morso with a screw in controller?
Winston.. I had a multi fuel previous to the C4 with screw thread inlet at the bottom and sliding air wash inlet on the top of the stove.
I also did wonder if just having 3 settings on a lever would be a issue, but to be honest I think it's works fine.
The glass blacking up I suspect is because of its small size, once all fuel has been burnt it's cooling down during the night and residue fuel leaving deposits on the glass.
It's just case of a bit of spit and a wipe with newspaper to clear anyway.
I decided on the C4 for its single control, as Iam away from home a lot, so it's left to the wife to run, she just wants fire and heat quick and easy.
I have a C4 and have used supertherm smokeless coal to keep it going for longer periods . Seems to tickover for days and will be warm enough in the morning to bung some kindling on it and get it going again . Well worth the investment .
Yeah - I've got one but I've found that though its easy to light and burns well its difficult to reduce the burn before it just peters out. I seem to be going through wood much faster than in my last house which had a morso squirrel. Having said that I like the stove and the way it looks
Yes i agree mine will chomp through the wood pretty quick but then it sometimes depends on what type of wood you use .
Winston- This is my first stove so never really tried anything else. I like the simplicity of the three positions and seems to work fine but It's probably a little better to control using smokeless rather than wood.
Fatalbert- I also though about taking the grate out but I have quite a bit of smokeless fuel because wicks were doing 3 for 2 on the homefire 10kg bags. Still be interested in how you get on without the grate.
I think some of you should check out the safety distances of flamable materials to your stoves - that Christmas tree. :-/
Yes, some real dodgy stuff on this thread, can't believe the idiot with logs balanced on top of his stove.
Joking aside, if anyone has problems with smoke coming out the stove when refueling, try opening up the vents for a minute, then close them, now crack the door open, the stove will now draw through the door opening and if you fuel quickly you will get no smoke. If you still get smoke then your not getting the stove up to it's correct operating temp, probably wood is not dry enough.

Twinwall - what are those strange grey semi circle things atop your stove...?
Hi teasel, they are pieces of soapstone, wrap em up and put them in the bed 20 mins before retiring. Small pieces can be put in the freezer then used to cool your malt without watering it down.
Ah, right. Like the dual use. Or even triple use with the log supports on the stove.
[i]I think some of you should check out the safety distances of flamable materials to your stoves - that Christmas tree. :-/[/i]
It's funny that. This is the second year we've had the christmas tree that close. Even when the fire is flat out, pushing 400 degrees on the pipe thermo, the nearest branch is only warm to touch. All the heat comes from the pipe.
Daffy / Bedmaker - do you get issues with smoke in the room when you re-stock your Morsos? I have the same as Daffy but quite often get a face full of smoke when I put more logs in
Never on my stove, even when it's cold, but I know of others who do. I've got a twinwall chimney though which draws very hard.
Any smoking issues will be the chimney rather than stove.
