There seems to be a lot of variation in price, for the same

range? What is the Miele of multifuel stoves?

We have a Super Demon Boiler from the Hellfire Combustion Company.It
produces 60,000 BTU/hr on wood and 75,000 BTU/hr on solid fuels. It
has a back boiler and will heat up to 15 (I think) radiators.
Excellent machine.

If someone asks for a recommendation for a small runabout car for
urban commuting and shopping, please bear in mind that it's not
going to help the enquirer much if you tell them how happy you are
with your 4x4 with a tow hook that will take a trailer in which you
can carry 15 weeks' worth of shopping.

So here we have someone asking about stoves in the 5-8kW range,
and you wax lyrical about a stove which gives 60-75 kBTU/h, which
is around 20 kW. Duh.

Someone else mentioned Morso, which I would endorse. They make a
range of multifuel stoves from just under 5 to just over 10 kW.
Many of their models are named after animals, and I used to have
a Squirrel, which is the baby of the range. Very happy with it.
They make a variant of this which is approved for the burning of
wood in smoke control areas.

Don't know about the "Miele" aspect, but they're pretty rugged.
