The app is very large, but loaded OK. Putting the "tag" (visual representation of a fireplace with a sitting dog either side - available from the website or back of the brochure) is also easy enough. As is selecting one's chosen model of stove. However the "visualisation" is quite frankly rubbish. You need to keep your camera aimed at the tag otherwise the visualisation stops. As soon as you move more than 3m or so from the tag, the app stops again. You cannot look at the stove face on.

Not great. Tried on moto g 2nd gen and Ipad 2 but in both cases the stove was tilted right over so bit of a chocolate t pot. Maybe it works better on higher spec devices?

With a lot of work, this could be useful. After several attempts, I got the stove displayed upright and in the right location (the initial instructions aren't particularly clear), but on my Samsung Galaxy Tab A the surroundings were so dark that it didn't help visualise it much (although this is a problem I've had with other AR apps). For those struggling to get this stove to display the right way up, place the tag image flat on the floor where you want the stove, stand over it (or near it) so the camera can pick it up, once the stove appears, slowly move away, always keeping the tag in shot and if the stove disappears move towards the tag until it shows up again. With any luck you'll get it displayed properly before you've deleted the app or destroyed your device in frustration...

Doesn't work very well on Moto X. Stoves just randomly hover around the room

Slight over kill and only a small range of their stoves. We are looking at the Skye but half the stoves they do aren't on the app.
