nectre mega
we brought the Nectre Mega with a water jacket the top plate inside the fire fell down into the fire happened twice emailed Nectre and they said that can't happen they said there is no vibration for that to happen well it did happen twice could not use it till we had it fixed they don't know there product because when the water heats up there is vibration they would not answer any more emails, for them to totally deny that it doesn't happen does not say much for the company, once it was fixed it worked o/k, so don't count on there after sales service .

7 years ... and still great!!
Had this model installed into our high split level home in 2010. We researched slow combustion heaters for months beforehand. The design brief - had to be Australian made, and it MUST NOT have a fan - these ALWAYS start to rattle/shake/vibrate enough to give you a breakdown - usually a month or two out of warranty!!
Finally settled on the Nectre, as it fulfilled both requirements, and had the added bonus of having a top which is rated for cooking ... you can actually fry your bacon and eggs directly on the cast iron top if you choose. As sel...Read more
f sufficient types this represents a GREAT backup in the event that all other cooking options become unavailable due to some calamity!! The firebox comes with heat resistant fire bricks, with its secondary air baffle at the top left. Its knob is round black heat resistant plastic. The primary baffles are located at the lower front. The door opens from the right. Its handle, and that of the primary baffle is enmeshed with a silver wire outer. All handles are able to be used even at high heat. The heat output is remarkable, even within our massive open planned living area. When we walk upstairs its like walking into a wall of heat that reminds us of an outback summer - a combination of the upward moving warmth and radiated heat from the exposed flue that runs straight up beside the stairs 5 metres to our ceiling. So to light the fire, all you need is good seasoned hardwood - we buy ours from wood mongers and allow it to season in a shed exposed to the northern sun for 12 months in addition to the time the wood man seasoned it for. Then a bed of Cypress pine (in our case) with either a fire lighter or newspaper. Open both baffles wide and away you go. The primary baffles at the front then get closed reasonably quickly as the fire takes ... until ultimately they get closed completely leaving just the upper secondary baffle to adjust gently more or less open to maintain a good flame at optimum wood consumption.Similar opinion?

Where should the top plate sit to maximise heat? All the way to the back or in the middle? We are trying to get more heat out of our stove.
