This page uses stoves in the nominal 5kW band (4.75kW to 5.25kW) that the retailer marks as DEFRA approved and as wood burning.
Median £1,944 (IQR £1,391, from £399 to £4,445, n=157, 1 outlier removed).
The median is the middle sale price after extreme prices are removed with a 1.5×IQR fence. It is not an RRP and it is not a fitted price.
A 5kW nominal output is a common shortlist for a modest living room. The room calculator on the heat-output guide is a volume estimate, not a heat-loss calculation.
What is not included
Flue liners, twin-wall systems, hearths and installation are separate. A low stove price can sit next to a larger flue bill.
DEFRA approval is about smoke-control areas. EcoDesign is a different mark. A stove can carry one, both, or neither in the retailer title.
Prices are the retailers' was/now figures on the checked date. The shop page can change after that.
