Default Wall Mounted Oil Fired Boliers

Hi,

Anyone any experience of wall mounted oil fired boilers? So far I have
found these:

HRM Wallstar
Trianco Eurostar
Worcester Danemoor
Boulter Camray

But which is best? Factors like how noisy are they, inside and out,
reliability, etc. Anyone anything good or bad to say about these?

BTW the figures for oil consumption are all very similar so nothing to
choose between them there.

The Danemoor is the most compact and the cheapest, and probably the
easiest to fit in my house. But it only has a 2yr warranty where as
some of the others have a 2yr plus 3yr on the heat exchanger (5yrs in
all on HE). Is this significant?

BTW I should say this is a replacement for coal fired room heater so
not an easy installation. A wall mount is easier since it won't mess
the kitchen up as much as a floor mount. I've also looked at external
boilers and I know about the change in the law come April 2005 (so I
might be changing my heating in March b*^%%$% government!).
