Snadger - my OH has one of these in his workshop and although the stove was cheap, the flue has cost us a bomb! (four times as much as the stove) and its still not working properly. He burns the wood from the woodturning and everything else we put by (cardboard etc.) and he has to keep it fed all the time.

I have just bought a paraffin heater for the greenhouse and am still having to feed that with paraffin every other day. Turning it down is the main problem, I turn it down to a light glow and then it goes out (too far), turn it it up and it burns blooming quickly!

So if you are not able to get to the lottie every day even that might be a problem.
