Esse Warmheart Deluxe

The compact Warmheart wood-fired cooking stove is a real ripper for heating a cosy country shack or a remote bush hut.

Don’t let its tough-as-nails cast-iron build and no-fuss look fool ya — the Warmheart might look old-school, but it’s actually a top-notch bit of British kit, packing over 160 years of stove and cooker know-how into one little beauty.

Built on the same smarts as our best-selling Ironheart, the Warmheart throws out plenty of heat to keep you snug as a bug, all while simmering a stew on the hob or cooking up a couple of juicy steaks right in the firebox.

No power? No worries. The Warmheart thrives off the grid, making it a top pick for heating your bush bolt-hole or a cabin out in woop woop.

While most of our cookers are built to keep the heat in, the Warmheart’s got convection panels that spread the warmth around the room — just like your classic wood-burner.

Thanks to ESSE’s clever heat transfer tech, it channels heat from the firebox straight into the graduated-temp hob, wringing every bit of goodness out of your firewood for proper wood-fired cook-ups.

The hob’s got a handy heat range too — piping hot at 300°C in the middle and easing down to 190°C at the edges, so you’ve got more control over your cooking.

It’s built to take seasoned logs up to 400mm (15 inches) long, and you can chuck it in just about anywhere for a solid, long-term off-grid heating solution.
