I purchased a Flueless gas fire
I purchased a Flueless gas fire. Delivery was longer than advertised but not a big issue. This seems to be a drop ship operation - the fire came directly from another company. It was well packed against shipping damage. I had a lot of trouble finding a gas fitter to install it - there is a lot of negativity against gas fires in the industry. I turned to Direct Fireplaces for help and they referred me to their sister company "directheatingservices" who seem to act as a broker/agency to engage local installers. The price quoted by the local installer was unrealistically high so after many more phone calls I finally found a reputal local company who fitted the fire in an hour at their hourly rate (no fixed price offered). I have spoken to Direct Fireplaces and they acknowledge the difficulty of finding installers which is not their fault but something to bear in mind when buying a gas fire.

Hi Michael,
Thanks for taking the time to review your order.
We are sorry for any delay in the shipping and for any difficulty experienced in locating a fitter. Direct Heating Services as our installation team does vet and sub-contract gas installers throughout much of England and Wales; unfortunately, not every Gas Safe Registered engineer will provide flueless gas fitting services, which does mean some gaps in their coverage at present.
We are always looking to improve the level of service that we offer and appreciate your feedback regarding your experience. It's good to hear that the fire was well-packaged on receipt and we trust that you have been enjoying it now that it is installed.
If we can advise further then please don't hesitate to let us know.
Kind regards,
Direct Stoves & Fireplaces
Hot and Cold feeling
Great Show room and advice
However fires are not cheap for what they are
The size of some fire are large and will not fit in a car, to charge £75 delivery plus £250 for fitting which only took 2 hours is a bit much
Fir works great

Thanks for your review.
We're pleased to hear that you were impressed with the service received in our showroom.
We do offer a large range of appliances in varying sizes and price points. Naturally, the degree to which a courier and a qualified engineer may be required will very much depend upon what the customer chooses. We can only apologise for any disappointment relating to pricing but we appreciate your feedback.
If we can offer any other assistance or advice then please let us know.

The installation of the fire almost…
The installation of the fire almost stalled. The firebox is held in place by thin cables which are tightened using two 10mm nuts. One of the nuts did not have a thread and could not be used, stalling the installation.
Fortunately, I managed to find a replacement in my garage. However, without my nut the gas engineer would not have been able to complete the installation.

Hi Marcin,
Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear of any disappointment regarding your purchase.
To clarify, the e-Lectra C1 that you had ordered was in stock and listed as 5-7 working days' lead time online last week. As my colleague had explained to you over the phone, these sold out over the weekend before our team will have had the chance to update the website (this is now showing at availability from Mid Jan 2025 online).
We do appreciate the inconvenience and can only apologise to have not been of more assistance on this occasion. Please let us know if we can offer any other advice or assistance.

Extremely disappointed with the service…
Extremely disappointed with the service we are receiving from direct fireplaces. After paying in full for 3 fireplaces coming to over £8,000 !! We have been unhappy with the fitting of one of the Chesney fireplaces. It was fitted on the 2nd of October and still awaiting for it to be rectified. Have phoned the showroom numerous times and emailed but don’t often get any response back. We had to actually call into the showroom at the weekend to actually speak to someone. Very poor customer service which is very disappointing with the amount of money we have spent with you. it is now the 17th November and still waiting. Such a shame as we have recommended a lot of people to you and started off with a great experience. Shame once you have the money don’t seem to be bothered.

We purchased our fire from Stanley green, Cheadle hulme
We purchased our fire from your shop on Stanley green, Cheadle hulme. The shop was fantastic to visit, with a great section of fires on display.
The member of staff we dealt with was awful, rude and patronising!
We really loved the fire so we went ahead with the purchase, however, we really considered cancelling the order and shopping elsewhere.
When collecting the fire it was the same member of staff again and again was greeted with the same patronising and rude attitude, however, he did carry the fire out to the car for us.

Thank you for your feedback. It's good to hear that you were impressed with the fire received, and we are very sorry to hear of any negative experience in the showroom.
We can see that a member of the sales management team has requested some additional information from you (order details and contact information) so that they can investigate this matter further. Unfortunately, they have not had a customer response to provide these details.
If there is anything else that we can do to assist at this stage then please don't hesitate to let us know.

Really don't know how to start .Placed a order online with Direct fires ,order went through you are suppose to get email so that you pick your slot for delivery .
Had email from Moddelo but no time slot .I spoke to Direct Fires Victoria first thing Monday morning she spoke to Moddelo that fire was to be delivered the same day Monday which was not the case . I was on the phone nearly all day to get resolved staff at Direct fires hung up on me passed back to Victoria to try and get resolved .
I got InTouch with Moddelo they said that they didn't have my order it was a different model fire. I spoke to Victoria though out the day and asked as a goodwill to get a next delivery due to the complete mix up which she couldn't do.Victoria gave me Moddelo number me the customer to get resolved .I spoke to Will from Moddelo took on board got it resolved and personally delivered the fire on the Monday night .Will went above and beyond and cannot thank him enough .The complaint is for Direct Fires .I would expect some kind of goodwill credit as for the complete stressful situation I was put in

Hi Elizabeth,
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear of the issues experienced with the delivery.
To clarify, the fire selected has an expected lead time of approximately 3-5 working days at present, and we advise that the courier will contact the customer directly for a book-in.
As our Dispatch team has confirmed over the phone with yourself and the courier, they sent you a text and email notification to advise of expected delivery on the 17/10. We understand that this was attempted and then marked as a failed delivery, for which we can only apologise on the courier's behalf.
It was after Victoria and the Dispatch team contacted our delivery partner that they themselves requested that you ring them to make a further booking. We are pleased to hear that this was resolved when Will agreed to make the delivery personally.
We do, for any delivery consignment, advise that any delivery times are estimates and not by any means guaranteed. While delays are thankfully infrequent, they can and do happen on occasion due to factors that are ultimately outside of our control.
We would however stress that our Dispatch team worked hard to get this matter resolved on the same day that it was brought to our attention, and that they coordinated as best as they could with the courier to this effect.
Our apologies again for any inconvenience. Please do let us know if we can offer any further advice or assistance.
Kind regards,
Direct Stoves & Fireplaces

Hi Christine,
Thanks for your review. It's good to hear that you were impressed with the fire upon receipt and that delivery was prompt.
We are sorry for any inconvenience relating to the ignition. We can see from notes on the order that the supplier has offered to arrange a service engineer to replace the spark generator and has just asked that you complete the warranty registration for the fire so that they can action this.
If you need any further advice or assistance then please don't hesitate to let us know.

Incompetent and inadequate service
This review is on behalf of my elderly parents who paid direct fireplace Bromsgrove to survey their existing fireplace with the intention to replace it, they were advised the new fire they wanted would fit, the installer decommissioned their existing fireplace for the new installation to then be told the fire they had ordered wouldn’t fit. When contacted they refused to recommission the existing fire as doesn’t meet modern regs regardless of their incompetence and inadequate service. My parent have now been left without a fire, even though the existing was in good working order. This company should be ashamed of their treatment of their customers! Do not use!

Appalling customer service - AVOID
Appalling customer service - avoid this company under all circumstances. I ordered a £1,500 pizza oven which weighs half a tonne, and they only offer kerbside delivery. In order to transport it to my garden I needed to order a crane from a separate company at a cost of £300. When I was called at 4pm the day prior to delivery to confirm it was arriving the following day, I explained that I’d had to book a crane and were they certain the oven would arrive, and I was told “yes, it will definitely arrive so you are good to book the crane”. The following day I get an email saying their delivery company had dropped the pizza oven and cracked so it would be another 2 weeks for a new one to be delivered. Meanwhile I have a £300 crane sat on my drive which now cannot be used. I appreciate that dropping the oven was an unfortunate mistake, but this disgrace of a company have accepted no liability at all for their mistake, and have essentially said all they can do is cancel the order in full, or redeliver in 2 weeks. I’m now left £300 out of pocket for their mistake. Their customer service is a disgrace, and these sorts of companies shouldn’t be trading. I’ve submitted a claim through the small claims court to force them to pay for their mistake. Their default position is “the manufacturer arranges delivery so it isnt our problem”. What they don’t realise is they are responsible for the end to end service, so the manufacturers mistake is their mistake to resolve.
I’ve reordered the oven from a different retailer - don’t make the same mistake I did, because if you expect any kind of after sales service this company will leave you high and dry.
UPDATE: I’ve noticed direct stoves response below - unfortunately this is a flat out LIE. They didn’t advise me the delivery was cancelled the day before, they advised me the morning of the delivery. Once the crane was already on my property. So I was left £300 out of pocket, and direct stoves accepted no liability for this. They also claim someone on their management team “offered me a contribution as a gesture of goodwill. Again, this is a LIE. No such offer was made. It’s clear from these lies that direct stoves can’t be trusted, so further reason to avoid them. I’ve also not even received my refund yet. So at present I am £300 down for the crane and £1,500 down on the pizza oven.

Hi Andrew,
Thank you for your feedback regarding your purchase.
We are sorry for any inconvenience and we do understand your frustration regarding the damaged item. As you mention, we received word from the delivery company that the pizza oven had been broken in transit and our Dispatch team let you as soon as we were informed, which was the day prior to the scheduled delivery. This effectively gave you a day's notice to make alternative arrangements.
While such instances are thankfully very rare, such accidents can and do happen on occasion and (as was the case in this instance) our team can only do what they can to try and arrange a replacement ASAP.
Regarding crane hire and similar arrangements, and as per the delivery information on our website, "we strongly advise that you do not book any contractors, plumbers or fitters until you have received your good as unexpected delays can occur". A member of the Direct Stoves/Fireplaces management team had in fact offered you a contribution towards the £300 crane hire charge as a gesture of goodwill prior to cancellation of the order. Ultimately however, we cannot be held responsible for the crane hire as this was arranged at your discretion.
As per your review, we had offered the choice of either a full refund of the order total or a replacement oven to resolve the matter. The supplier has actually mentioned that they had to refuse a replacement item due to the aggressive language that you had used on the phone when speaking to their director. This left us with no choice but to arrange a full refund back to your original payment method.
Again, we do appreciate your disappointment in the service received and can only apologise that we were unable to be of more assistance.
Kind regards,
Direct Stoves & Fireplaces
