This stove rocks. Growing up on supplemental wood heat, it was so much fun as a kid. After months of research we landed on the Drolet Bistro. Ordered through fyredirect. Couldn’t be happier. Beautiful stove. Puts out heat really well. Looking forward to saving on power bills.

For the money, can’t beat it. I shopped around for a long time, no regrets at all. I have a very heavy stove (575 lb) and this pad holds up fine. Took me a second to understand how to connect the four pieces but it’s actually pretty easy. I’d buy it again. Recommend.

We got our Blackcomb II wood stove installed and are very pleased with it. Our architect recommended a Drolet Deco II. I did extensive online research and settled on this stove because it was my wife's preference over the Deco II (she likes the more traditional look of the Blackcomb over the Deco's modern look - personal preference, they are essentially equivalent). Shipping was timely; delivery was competent and professional, with a helpful driver and no issues. We had a professional install it, and he was complimentary of the stove's quality. We had fires over several days to temper the paint—being able to open the windows is a good thing. Getting a fire going had a learning curve the first few times, but once I got it, I had a nice fire in no time (crack the door until it is burning well). I am used to a north/south-loading stove and was a little apprehensive about the E/W loading, but it works well — no issues, takes a long log, and provides a nice view of the fire. It has a nice, cheery fire and keeps the house warm. I have an HVAC, so it is supplemental heat, but it keeps the place warm as long as it is burning. Fyre Direct is a great vendor. I highly recommend them.

Hey , it’s a fire screen and to be honest I never used it yet ,still working on installing the insert and liner ( waiting for my permit ), but what I can say it fits well and there is not many units you can buy that is screen is an option But my drolet 1500I did !

Just finished my third burn to wrap up the break in period. So far so good! I held it at 600* for a couple hours and then pushed it to 700* to make sure the burn off was mostly done. I like the minimalist aesthetics. The guy I used to install it pointed out that the guts looked like a higher end stove called Osburn. Turns out both brands are made by the same parent company. Basically, Drolet is a dressed down version of Osburn stoves, with basic finish details, but the guts like baffles etc are the same. I’m a value shopper and I’m very happy with the quality relative to price point on this unit. Time will tell but I suspect this stove will outlive me. Highly recommend the stove and very happy with Fyredirect.com - two thumbs up!

I installed this myself in an open fireplace that we wanted to make more efficient. I just did the first fire in it yesterday, and it was really nice to not waste all the heat up the chimney. The kit came with almost everything I needed. I also added insulation to the liner (a seperate kit) before installing it. The shipping through Fyre Direct was prompt, and it all arrived in great shape. It’s incredibly heavy, even with fire bricks and door removed, so plan to have help if you’re doing it yourself.

Arrived on time, one brick was broken, took photos, sent an email. Two new bricks arrived in a week. No complaints, very happy.

Great wood stove heats up our house wonderfully

Great experience from start to finish don't worry about damaged product the way they package the stove with basically a wooden box on a pallette securely nailed down takes longer to unpackage than to install.

The Drolet Bistro is just what I've been searching for. It's the perfect combination of wood stove look/feel and cooktop/oven capabilities. Living in an off grid cabin setting in the mountains for the last 15 years, I've relied heavily on cooking on the woodstove during the winter months. This stove will make life way better! The entire ordering process from Fyredirect was flawless. I had the stove within 7 days of ordering it and the communication regarding all the delivery logistics was awesome. It shipped by FedEx Freight and they worked directly with me and kept me updated every step of it's journey. I have worked on many projects in my lifetime (64 years) and I can honestly say I have never had anything run as smoothly as this order has. Five stars Fyredirect!

What a great stove and business! fyredirects shipping is fast, and free! They are the best to deal with and very informative when it comes to any of their products, looking forward to doing more business with them in the future, thanks again fyredirect!

Stove delivered on time and as promised. Easy transaction and great customer service glad i went with Fyre and not the big box store. Have not been able to use it yet still a little warm to do so. Will use this American based family business again because when you call you get a person who cares about you and your needs.

We are in the middle of a new build so we have not installed yet and certainly have not used yet in central Texas

We had never heard of fyre direct. We were a little apprehensive about ordering something so big and expensive online, however, they made it so easy and were in touch with us the whole time. The delivery was easy too. We will be telling all our friends.

I purchased the Drolet 1800 insert. The unit came quickly and was well packaged. It took my some time to install, but when finally done I am very pleased. I had a few questions that I directed to Fyredirect and they promptly replied with what I needed. The stove looks great in my opening. I was able to have my first fire today and this thing is putting out a lot of heat. I was worried that the fan that comes with it would be annoying and loud but it is not. At its lowest setting you barely notice it. At the highest you hear it but it is not obnoxious. I look forward to using this a lot this and future winters.
