They cook the best roasts and the best scones ever.

Lamb roast that tastes so damn good, you don’t get this good in gas/ electric ovens.

Somewhat amazingly, the most modern oven struggles to produce results as good as the wood stove does everyday!

I loved my wood stove, everything came out lovely, it kept us warm in winter, dried baby clothes on a rack, and had a kettle ready for any visitors that might drop in. l miss those early years.

What a amazing memory. Coming home from school to nice warm dry clothes & slippers on the oven door after walking home in the rain. Or the smell of cupcakes or rock buns coming out of the oven. Enough to bring a tear to my eyes. Thanks

Nothing nicer than a nice wood stove going in the kitchen with a big iron kettle boiling away ready for a cuppa. Who needs electric or gas heaters when you have this.

Newly married at 20 with no clue about cooking, the Metters is what I learnt to cook on . I soon learnt the metters cooked the best of everything.

Lots a great meals…mutton roasts, lambs fry, steak & kidney pies, stews, pea & Ham soup, bread & butter puddings, rice puddings and cakes came out of my wood stove…even dry our clothes & shoes on the oven door.

Everything that goes into the oven comes out perfect from pumpkin scones, pies and of course roast turkey and ham for Xmas.

The wood stoves do the best baked potatoes. It also does the best crispy salmon with skin. Because the ovens retain the moisture, also the best cakes. In cold weather I always have soup cooking.
