• Are they New Zealand made and owned? – Metro is proud to be 100% New Zealand made and owned, supporting local industry and New Zealand’s future.

• How thick is the firebox? – All Metro’s are 6mm, even the “Tiny” models. You will find some brands use 3mm, possibly because 3mm costs 50% less than 6mm!

• Will they burn overnight? – A major feature of LTD Model Metro’s is their responsive control of burn rate for overnight burning.

• How much room do they take up? – Compactness is a Metro feature, all models have minimal clearances and the “Tiny” models have the smallest floor protector of any NZ wood fire.

• What about the Guarantee? – Metro has an “unconditional” 12 month guarantee (yes unconditional) with a 5 year firebox guarantee which you can extend to 10 years for a small fee.

• Can I have a Wetback? – Most Metro’s can run wetbacks which will heat all your hot water needs. Surprisingly most other brands don’t!

• What do people say about them? – You won’t have to look far to find a Metro owner! Metro is NZ’s No. 1 selling wood fire for lots of reasons, and Metro owners love them.

• What about the price? – That’s the really pleasant bit….Metro has style with quality, performance and features at prices that make the other brands shiver!
