I've had my multi fuel stove for a year now, this is the second winter and I just don't get on with it.
It's just not what I had hoped for, mainly it is so dirty, coal dust and ash on the floor when loading it. The window and surfaces when wiped make the cloths black! I can't help but feel it can't be healthy to be breathing in all this dirt.
I actually am lucky to get free kindling but coal is £60 a month which is cheaper than gas which used to be £200 a month in the coldest months.
I'm mad aren't I to rip it out? It cost nearly 3k to install.
What are the alternatives? Is it to go back to a gas fire, is there any ultra efficient ones available that I could have, I did partly install for cost reasons
