This week’s offering is a rather local stove to us, in the neighbouring village of Debden. The customer here recently changed from an antique Jotul stove that didn’t heat the room adequately, to this stylish, contemporary Hunter Allure 5 Wood-Burning Stove. The stove was installed by Cut Maple Stoves from New England near Sturmer. The customer is very happy with his new stove, and he told me that Cut Maple Stoves did an excellent job and that he is very happy with how his new stove operates. He was particularly pleased with how efficiently it heats the room and he likes the large piece of glass in the door so he can see the fire burning. I find the Hunter Allure 5 very similar in design to the Parkray Aspect 5, which is not surprising as Parkray are now part of the Hunter Group of stove manufacturing companies.

Hunter Stoves were founded in the West Country in 1970 and now manufacture their stoves at a site near Exeter. Hunter bought the Parkray company in 2003 and absorbed the brand into its product range. In 2008 Hunter Stoves bought a site a Camelford in Cornwall as a research and development department, but they now produce some stoves there as well. In 2015 the company rebranded as the Hunter Stoves Group and now produce such brands as; Herald, HS Gas, Di Lusso, Avalon, Cleanburn, Eco-ideal and Parkray.
