Westfire or Contura woodburner? Help!

[Sweetpea302]

We’re getting a woodburner installed in our house soon and need to decide ASAP which stove to go for. We had Westfire 17 in our last house and we had almost decided to go for a Westfire 21 this time (it’ll be in the corner, so we wanted a curved front) but then the installer recommended Conture stoves (specifically the 810).

Has anyone had a Contura stove? Any opinions happily received!

We have a Contura 51L. Was fitted in the summer so we've been using it for the first time this winter.

I've never had one before so have nothing to compare it to, but it seems to work well. Throws out a lot of heat and not too much of a nightmare to clean out so far!

Thanks pistachio it’s good to hear that you’ve had a good experience with them. I’m very envious that yours is already installed - enjoy!!!

We have a Westfire uniq. Burning nicely right now. really pleased with it for 5 years
