I would recommend buying a stove from Direct Stoves. Having ummed and aaad about getting a more expensive model from a shop in town, I took the plunge on an Ekol 5K multifuel, based on one or two good reviews I could find online. The item arrived on time and is excellent quality, just what I was after. Unfortunatley some of the packaging had come lose and the paint was badly scratched down one edge. I logged this with the customer service who were so helpful and offered a gratuity for the trouble of repainting this section. A great demonstration of how to resolve a customer issue quickly and effectively.

When I was searching for my stove I came across this site. After reading some negative comments I was sceptical if I should trust them. But finally i decided to give them a go and I didn't regret it. the stove came on time and there was no issues with it.

in my opinion 10 out of 10 for delivery but made returns overly complicated and expensive.

My installer said he couldn't match Direct Stoves' price for his recommended Charnwood. The stove was delivered promptly to my front door. After installation, I needed help to complete the 10 years guarantee process: this was provided cheerfully, swiftly, and effectively by Mike Daly in the Customer Service team.

Never before have I experienced such poor service from a company.
I ordered a stove, selected the delivery date, arranged to be home for delivery. Waited all day and it failed to show. Called direct stoves customer service and was asked which company I was calling about. Left all the details and was assured someone would call me the following day. I waited till 9:30 am then decided I would call and try and find out what was happening as I needed work. Was told that they needed to contact Hunter to find out what had happened. (I was led to believe Hunter was the delivery company so questioned no further)
I did receive a call back to say the delivery would be with me that day between a specified time. Well, it never appeared. I called back, stating my disappointment and the fact I couldn’t just wait around for it show. I was told it would definitely arrive before another specified time and yes, you guessed it, it never showed up. When I called again she said the truck had broken down and honestly, she couldn’t have cared less how inconvenienced I had been. At this point I asked to cancel my order as I was going away shortly and didn’t want the delivery turning up when no one was home, at which she agreed to do. Amazingly, not 5 minutes later, she called me back and said they’d be able to deliver within half an hour, would that be ok. I agreed and low and behold it arrived, I guess they didn’t want to lose the sale. It’s worth mentioning that your order doesn’t initially come from Direct Stoves, in my case it was from a company called Hunter so they (DS) are little more than a middleman. Never again would I use this company nor recommend to anyone else. I appreciate issues arise but the way in which they are handled is everything.
The only reason I award 2 stars and not one is because the paint on the front of the slider plate was mottled and the resolution was swift, resulting in a replacement being sent to rectify the issue.

Many thanks to Mike in customer services for a service up and beyond anything I would have expected. Would recommend direct stoves to anyone who expects a better service

Brilliant service (from Lucy) from the chat on the website and the follow up phone call. Very helpful. Thank you

Clear and concise information followed up with top level customer service.

Many thanks to the lovely and helpful Lucy! This lady is clearly passionate about what she does. Keep up the the good work.

10/10 for the rock star service!

Couldn't be more impressed! After shopping around for our second wood burner for another room, we happened across Direct Stoves and our search stopped. Speaking to Lucy put our minds at rest, as she helped us to choose the right stove for us. Her knowledge, professionalism and humor was what gave us the confidence to buy. Like most people, buying a stove is a considered purchase but she made this very easy for us. The delivery was smooth and hassle free. We would have no hesitation in recommending Direct Stoves.

Absolutely brilliant service. This is the second time I’ve bought a log burner from this company. On my second order I mistakenly bought the wrong sized stove and called them to help me rectify my mistake. Lucy was so, so helpful and sorted it all out in minutes. She took the time to find me the right stove and gave me great advice. Having had lots of staff throughout my career I can say that she’s a real asset to Directstoves.

Lucy has been so very helpful, I had so many questions and she was able to answer them all! There are lots of products on the market … and without the right assistance I dare say it could be a nightmare, however, Lucy has provided all the info so we can make an informed decision, it’s given us confidence, she’s great and we’ve found some amazing products, all thanks to her.

Excellent customer service with swift resolution to an issue we had. We are very pleased with our new log burner.

Got my stove on time well packaged great comms, Excellent quality stove at a great price. My installer fitted it with no issues and commented on how amazing the quality was of the stove and was amazed at what i paid for it.
Driver was great, Very polite and super helpful. I was called day before and day of delivery to make sure we where in. All gone well. Few logs on and im toasty in my living room. Awesome. Thanks Loads

Helpful team when I had questions and a well designed website that makes it easy to compare different options. Pleased to have the stove delivered quickly too.

I bought a stove from Direct Stoves because my friend recommended them, and I am really happy with the service. The stove I wanted initially wasn't immediately available so Lucy helped pick out other stoves in a similar price range and size and style that were in stock and ready to be delivered - Lucy was really friendly and helpful and got me really excited about my second choice which in the end I think has turned out better than my original choice! It was delivered in the time window expected and it is really gorgeous! I am really pleased with the customer service and the stove. Thank you!

Having experienced bad customer service when looking to buy an electric log burning stove from out there in the high street I decided to go independent. Eventually I made the decision to go with Direct Stoves and I wasn't disappointed. Lucy was my first contact, and as I didn't have much idea as to where to start she guided me through the process of the changeover from a real logburner to an electric stove, also measurements and as the replacement was limited I made a choice of fire and the sale was completed. Delivery was 3 days and they were as good as their word. Always there at the end of the phone to help with any concerns and as I had my own installer organised I didn't need a recommendation which they also do. Its now installed and working beautifully, no wait for weeks to get the job done and the bonus is it turned out to be less expensive. Thankyou Lucy and colleagues. Irene

We are a stove installation company based in Norwich, we hold a trade account with direct stoves. Unfortunately due to no error of their own, we are unable to place orders with them online. When this happened I called to let the sales team know and place our order over the phone. I spoke to Lucy, who was extremely helpful. As we don't know what the issue is with ordering online, Lucy was able to give me her direct line of contact, for future orders. All of our order enquiries are answered strait away. We couldn't be happier with the customer service that Lucy as provided.

Just ordered a stovax Sheraton stove. They were happy to price match and when I had problems placing the order Lucy was excellent and sorted it immediately. It was incredibly easy and professional

Brilliant service. Very kindly forgiving of my bad day, Lucy (and others) were all exceptionally helpful on the phone when the following week I was ready to order my stove.
I ordered a stove but questioned my choice. Lucy gave me honest advice on which options would be best value for money, have large viewing panes and kick out enough heat, and was still an excellent stove. I saved £200 due to her advice and that's a lot of money. I look forward to its arrival and installation, and am truly very grateful for such wonderful and kind service. Thank you Lucy, and all on the phone lines and web chat at Direct Stoves. I can get excited about the house being warm now!

I am sorry to write this review as we were recommended to them, the install guy was very nice when came to visit, BUT!! when it came to the install. he had other jobs that were more important and then the job wasn't what he quoted for. then!! h he wanted £1K to be paid before he continued with the job! the stove was installed and the tiling did not match each side and one was 300 mm then the other 235mm the hearth doesn't sit even and his attitude is sooooo bad!!! when we spoke to Direct Stoves we were impressed with their reactions. and we had a visit and the person said he can see our issue and he would get one of the directors to contact me. it took three calls to chase them and then he called me when i was in a customer, i called back and no reply - my mobile may of been blocked! maybe worth spending money with someone that cares and doesn't have fitters that want there money and go. Promise thinks and don't receive. soo sad to have such bad service in time when i am willing to give a generous gift as a thank you for quality service. BAD REFLECTION ON THE COMPANY. Don't get Mark to fit your Stove!!!
