Likes: The best little stove i ever experienced. Burns well, heats well, easy to handle. When ordering it i first was concerned about that it hasn´t an ash pan. But then i learned it is an advantage. Just scoop out the ash into a metal bucket and don´t mind about ash pans and how to get it out of the stove and the house into the garbage. Looks excellent and fits perfectly into historic houses.

Dislikes: It has a cooking plate....i dont know for what. It is not build for cooking. But maybe You can keep warm a pot of tea on it.

Comments: We searched long for stoves which fit into our 300 yrs old house. Jotul is a first choice. And the F 602 is really a strike. We also have the F 500, which is double the size of the F 602. It is not the best choice, i dont know why the samwe company produces such different products. See my rating.
