    Even oil fired ranges are a bit shit, but coal fired? Fuck that noise.

  • Having lived with a coal fired Rayburn in the past, I can tell you that you do not want it. Getting up at 6.30 daily to get coal in from under a layer of snow so there was heat in the house + ability to cook was a low point of country living. (Though separate heating and a coal room mitigate that somewhat).
