Ironheart
Wood fired cook stove
Originally launched in 2004 to celebrate 150 years of ESSE Ironheart is a stove and a range cooker in one, combining the best of our two main product ranges.
Enjoy watching the flames leap and flicker through the large clear glass window while it heats and cooks.
Ironheart has convection panels that radiate warmth like a wood-burning stove. The oven has an almost 50 litre capacity, and you can also cook directly in the firebox. With the “dog bone” hotplate comfortably able to take up to six pans, the Ironheart is equipped to bring out the very best in creative cooks – so no wonder it’s become a firm favourite at Park Farm, River Cottage HQ.

- Hotplate up to 6 pans
- Suitable for continuous operation
- Heat output to room up to EW 9.7kW / EWB 10.5kW

What ESSE owners are saying about their Ironheart
I just wanted to say how much we love our Ironheart, we have had it almost a year now and it is amazing. So easy and efficient to cook on and it’s heating power is fantastic, we leave all the room doors open and it takes the chill off the whole house, we’ve not had our central heating on yet! So thank you for producing such a great stove.
