For covering CH and HW as well - which mine doesn't - have a look at
the solid fuel Rayburns (http://www.rayburn-web.co.uk/57_198.htm). I'm
very impressed with how well a friends old Rayburn Royale stays in for
many hours - and can burn most solid fuels I believe.

Rayburns are OK if you want to burn coal or manufactured coal type
fuel, but they're useless for wood. The fire box is much too small,
you'ld be feeding it every ten miutes.
