Good things do come in smaller packages – meet the Esse Lightheart, a compact wood burning cook stove that brings an exciting immersive experience to any living space. The new miniature version of the all conquering Esse Ironheart, the Lightheart offers a reduced footprint and moderate output, making it easy to plan into ‘off the grid’ locations or equally it will be warm and inviting in a fireplace without overpowering a centrally heated room.

At 700mm wide by 654mm tall and 500mm deep it provides 4.6kW of radiant heat. A sturdy steel body embellished with cast iron detailing enables it to heat quickly and cook food effectively, and its portrait firebox, with a picture frame surround, allows for a beautiful view of the fire. It includes a graduated temperature hotplate for boiling to simmering and a 47 litre oven with three shelf positions.

Easily controlled, the super efficient firebox delivers modern Ecodesign performance with great fuel economy. Air is added to the firebox to make the stove burn more cleanly and to keep the glass window fully transparent.

A stunning piece of heritage British built design with signature Ironheart looks, the Lightheart adds a striking statement to your home.
