Description
The Thorma Bilbao UNI is a wide freestanding wood burning stove from Thorma, and this version comes mounted on a box stand. The Bilbao UNI module is a stove body with a large glass door, made to be paired with a base. Here the box stand lifts the fire up so you can enjoy it from the couch without crouching down.
Thorma Bilbao UNI on Box Stand Features
A broad view of the fire
The wide body and glass door give a landscape flame picture that suits modern and classic lounges alike. Raised on the stand, the fire sits closer to eye level when you are seated.
A tidy, solid base
The box stand gives the stove a clean, boxy profile right down to the floor. It also keeps the hot firebox further from small hands and pets than a low leg stand would.
Burns wood or briquettes
Thorma rates the Bilbao UNI for wood and wood briquettes. Briquettes are handy in winter when dry firewood runs short, and they give a steady, even burn.
Top flue outlet
The flue leaves from the top, so the pipe can rise straight up through the ceiling and roof. That is the simplest and most reliable route for a good draw.

Thorma Bilbao UNI FAQs
What is the box stand on the Bilbao UNI?
It is a closed base that the stove sits on. It raises the fire to a better viewing height and gives the unit a solid, built-up look compared with a stove on short legs.
Can the Thorma Bilbao UNI burn coal?
Thorma lists it for wood and wood briquettes. We advise sticking to those fuels to protect the firebox and keep any warranty valid.
