The Jøtul F 373 V2 Advance wood burning stove combines a 6.5kW nominal heat output with 78% efficiency and a distinctive pedestal-mounted combustion chamber. Finished in black paint, this version places the stove body above a central pedestal, giving it a noticeably different stance from the open-base models within the F 370 Advance series.
The pedestal is the defining feature of the F 373 Advance. Rather than incorporating storage beneath the firebox, the combustion chamber is elevated on a narrower central support, creating a more sculptural freestanding appearance.
The stove measures 1155mm high, 443mm wide and 453mm deep, retaining the relatively narrow footprint shared across the standard-height F 370 Advance models. At 156kg, it is slightly lighter than the open-base F 371 configuration.
Jøtul’s Advance door system uses a magnetic locking mechanism designed to provide smooth opening and closing. An integrated stay function can hold the door open while logs are being placed onto the tinder bed; a small push on the handle then releases the mechanism so the door can close.
Performance is based around a 6.5kW nominal output with a stated efficiency of 78%. Jøtul gives the model a heating capacity of up to 100m², although the actual requirement will depend on the room, insulation level and wider property characteristics.
The F 373 Advance builds on a design associated with the international Red Dot Design Award: Best of the Best. The pedestal arrangement remains central to the model’s identity, distinguishing it clearly from the open-base, door-base and soapstone versions in the wider F 370 Advance family.

Expert Insight
The pedestal base is the main reason to choose the F 373 Advance over the open-base F 371. It gives the appliance a more concentrated support point beneath the combustion chamber and removes the visual weight of a full-width lower section, while keeping the same 443mm width and 453mm depth.
The magnetic door mechanism and stay function are also practical improvements within the Advance generation, making the door easier to manage while loading the fire.
Suitability
The Jøtul F 373 V2 Advance is suited to contemporary interiors where the stove will be seen as a freestanding object and a pedestal-mounted format is preferred over an open storage base. Its 6.5kW nominal output should be considered alongside the actual heat requirement of the room.
Installation/ Technical Notes
The stove measures 1155 x 443 x 453mm (H x W x D) and weighs 156kg. This version is the pedestal-base model in black paint, rather than the open-base or high-top configurations within the F 370 Advance range.
