Good, but needs some work on the design.
I bought my dad this for his birthday after a family friend brought their one over to use on our fire. He loved it, so I got him one for his birthday. Product works well, the only problem we have found is when you try and lift the lid with a hook, the top is heavier than the bottom so you can't lift it without spilling the food everywhere. Luckily my dad is a blacksmith, so he will be able to fix it so the problem no longer occurs.Read full review...

How Good ?
It works well but takes longer to cook, for me most of day, and turn potatoes once in that period. maybe my stove runs cooler than some as it’s just a little 5kw multifuel stove, i used salt first time too..BIG error !! ! it makes the iron rust so salt after they come out .... anyway i got away with it by using oil and ‘proving’ it . that means oiling and then burning it to a crisp when it’s empty. To clean just wipe with oiled sheet kitchen roll paper, Best thing is that it saves having a huge oven to run to bake two jacket potatoes so it’s green and energy saving. Yes it’s a good invention which i will keep on using from now on , grandchildren love it too !! It’s like bringing the potato in the bonfire indoors and it’s quirky..
It’s really worth oiling and baking it empty first time around as it’s then non stick there on in, just same as you are supposed to do with a wok for a waffle maker first time around. This is all explained in their enclosed leaflet but i was too gung ho and so too rushed to get on and i should have followed the instructions to the letter really.
All good now though. might try popcorn in it and roasted nuts too. Good FunRead full review...

Superb
Bought this for my father, he loves it.
In go the potatoes, onto the fire, off he goes shopping, comes back to a hot meal.
He thinks it's the bestest present ever, it is being used several times a week,
If you want a quick meal hen you will have to use a microwave as they aren't the best but if you want your jacket potatoe for tea then it is superb.Read full review...

use for bread instead
takes ages to cook a baked potato ,on the pluss side i have been cooking bread in this use grease proof paper in the base half fill with dough half an hour and you have a nice crusty loaf .

traditional cast iron baker.
just what I wanted. Looks good and works well, but be patient- takes longer than a conventional oven. great green alternative.

Just what we needed!
Fab little gadget for using on the woodburner. Perfect gift for the fire and stove lovers. A sensible person (not us!) would have measured the height to make sure there’s enough of a gap from top of stove that’s our only advice. Read full review...

Made for fire!
I have just fitted a multi-fuel stove and wanted it for many reasons including an alternative heating method. This product facilitates the cooking of baked potatoes on top of the stove. I haven't had the stove long enough to have tried it yet but was encouraged to buy it by someone who regularly used one. I am impressed by the design and quality of the product.Read full review...

Looks good but that's about it
Just had my kitchen ripped out and thought this would help me out whilst I am without a cooker. The cooker looks good but does not heat up enough and hasn't managed to cook a potato yet. Does not seem to be enough contact area between cooker and stoveRead full review...
