MORSø STOvE!

Morsø,  the  largest  stove  manufacturer  in  Denmark, 
has  been  making  cast-iron  stoves  of  the  highest  qual-
ity  since  1853.  By  carefully  following  the  instructions 
below, we are certain that you will enjoy many years of 
comfortable warmth from your new Morsø stove.

Additional accessories

Morsø also offers a comprehensive line of floor plates and accessory products that can facilitate 
the safe and efficient operation and maintenance of your Morsø stove.

Cast iron 
Cast iron is a live material. There are no two ovens that are identical. This is partly due to the 
tolerances of the casting process, partly because the ovens are a work of craftsmanship.
