We are looking at woodburning stoves, around max 5kw would suffice.
The guy who is going to fit it likes Esse and I quite like this,

Cheapest I can see it for is £670 quid.
I don't want to save money buying something cheap and naff but
don't want to spend more than necessary.
So general opinions would be appreciated on stoves and prices.
You may well find the chimney/flue arrangements costs more then the
stove.
Agreed. The cost of upgrading our chimney was so much that we didn't
install the woodburner.
What did they suggest you needed?!
normally double skinned insulated stainless steel Easily a grand,
installed.
Stoves are less.
Ah the mythical insulated stainless flue liner again
...;-)
Nothing mythical about it. That's what I installed. BCO insisted.
In an existing flue?
yes.
How did you install that into an existing flue?
(You didn't is the correct answer in case you've forgotten)
Dropped it down from the chimney. Was a right bugger as there was a dogleg.
You dropped a sectional flue from the top?
You are only allowed flexible flues for chimneys constructed IIRC before
1978.
Not read that, gorra link?
http://www.stovesonline.co.uk/existing-chimneys.html
"Lining existing chimneys
Flexible chimney liner may only be used to reline existing
chimneys, not for new chimneys. The chimney liner must be
suitable for the application and the manufacturer's fitting
instructions must be followed.
Chimney liner must be installed in one continuous length with no
joints within the chimney."
Your earlier link was to rigid sectional insulated flue pipe.
You sure you've not cooked your link (etc) up? Has been known ;-)
