The Nordpeis ME Wood Burning Stove is a distinctive contemporary wood burner built around a circular firebox and cylindrical body, creating a striking alternative to conventional rectangular stove designs. Developed with Scandinavian styling at its core, the ME is designed to become an architectural feature as much as a practical source of heat.
One of the biggest advantages of the Nordpeis ME is the extensive choice of installation styles. The firebox can be combined with a pedestal, steel stand, log store, glass stand, bench installation or wall mounting system, allowing the appearance of the stove to be adapted considerably to suit the room.
A version with additional side windows is also available, providing a wider view of the flames from different positions within the room. This works particularly well in open-plan interiors or installations where the stove can be viewed from several angles.
The ME provides a nominal heat output of 5.8kW, with a stated operating range of approximately 3kW to 6kW. With an efficiency of approximately 79% and an A energy efficiency rating, it combines its unusual design with modern wood-burning performance.
Nordpeis incorporates Airwash and Cleanburn technology to support efficient combustion and help maintain a clearer view through the stove glass. An optional external air kit is also available, allowing combustion air to be supplied directly to the appliance where appropriate for the installation.
The stove uses a 150mm / 6″ flue connection, with both top and rear flue outlet options available. This gives the installer additional flexibility when designing the chimney or flue arrangement.
A wide range of complementary accessories is available, including bench systems, storage boxes and alternative supports. Each configuration changes the character of the appliance, from a minimal wall-mounted installation to a larger freestanding statement piece.
With its circular firebox, flexible mounting choices and Scandinavian styling, the Nordpeis ME Wood Burning Stove is particularly suited to design-led interiors where a conventional stove shape would feel too traditional.

Expert Insight
The ME is unusual because the firebox is only part of the design. Changing the support from a pedestal to a bench, wall mount or glass stand can completely alter the appearance of the stove, making it particularly useful for architectural projects where the fireplace needs to integrate closely with the interior design.
Suitability
The Nordpeis ME Wood Burning Stove is well suited to contemporary homes, open-plan spaces, modern extensions and design-led interiors requiring a wood burner with a more sculptural appearance. The range of mounting options also makes it suitable for projects where a standard freestanding stove installation is not desired.
