Hi all
We purchased a small Soba last January and it is/ was great.
We could of got Cast Iron but instead bougt a modern model imported. It cost 600 L.
Great, living flame, only nicks on at night , whole house warm.
Downside. No matter what fuel u get ( I know the stories) you have to be ready to clean all the flu pipes at least once per month and this will be very dirty. Dont let it put you off, they are great.
Regards
Sorry tried to send a pic.
Tink if you dont mind will send to U and maybe you could post it( Please)
