Which solid fuel stove?

    I'm currently trying to select a solid fuel stove for my house. I need a 5.5-6 kW model.

    Ive narrowed it down to 3 stoves.

    1. The Stanley Oisin. 6.4 kW. €429. (Waterford company)

    2. The Heritage Skellig. 7kW. €439. (Cork company)

    3. The Hamco Allen. 7kW. €390. (Offaly company)

    I'm not going to let price be a deciding factor as they're all pretty close to each other. I had almost made up my mind to go with the Oisin but it's noticeably smaller than the other two and I'm not sure it would be the right choice for me.

    All 3 are Irish companies and spare parts won't be a problem.

    I'd be interested to hear your recommendations etc. and to hear how you find any of the above models.

    Thanks.

    Anybody?

    I've also seen the Mulberry Joyce, which is 6.8 kW, for €400 and it appears to be a good stove also.

    Well, you have mentioned 4 of the usual suspects. Any of the four should do the job nicely. I have a Stanley Erin for a pretty big room and a smaller Hamco (can't remember the model) for a much smaller room. I am happy with both. On occasion I have to open doors in the smaller room, particularly if burning coal. Don't buy too big or you may end up doing the same.
