New Stoves

A Familiar Shape, Reimagined

The Austroflamm Cloudi is the latest addition to the Clou stove family — and at first glance, it feels instantly familiar. That’s no accident. Cloudi clearly takes design cues from the now‑discontinued Austroflamm G1, a cult favourite known for its compact footprint, characterful stance and no‑nonsense heat delivery. Cloudi doesn’t try to reinvent that formula — it refines it.

With its soft organic form, iconic round fire viewing window and gently elevated legs, Cloudi feels both contemporary and reassuringly traditional. It’s small, but not apologetic about it. This is a stove designed to sit confidently in modern living spaces, period homes, and everything in between. Cloudi offers a round fire view, optional side shelves, external air compatibility and subtle cooking functionality — all wrapped in a beautifully refined, space-conscious stove.

Built Like a Proper Stove (Because It Is One)

Cloudi is fully cast‑iron construction — solid, heavy, and engineered for longevity. Austroflamm haven’t cut corners here. The body is mass‑produced with precision casting, giving the stove excellent thermal stability and a reassuringly premium feel.

The circular glass door draws your eye straight to the flame picture, which is very much the star of the show. Inside, the firebox is lined with Keramott — Austroflamm’s proprietary refractory material designed to boost combustion temperatures, improve efficiency, and keep emissions clean. In short: hotter fire, cleaner burn, happier flue.

Subtle wooden accents add warmth to the otherwise industrial aesthetic, softening the look without tipping it into gimmick territory.

More Than Just a Woodburner

One of Cloudi’s standout tricks is what’s happening on top. An integrated cooking plate provides usable surface space — ideal for warming drinks, simmering food, or generally pretending you live in a Scandinavian design catalogue.

Side shelves can be added or removed depending on your setup, offering practical everyday usability without permanently committing to extra bulk. It’s thoughtful design, not feature‑creep.

Cloudi proves that a compact stove doesn’t have to be single‑purpose.

Key Specifications (That we Know So Far)

At launch, the Austroflamm Cloudi is expected to sit firmly in the sweet spot for UK living spaces:

Nominal heat output: 6kW
Dimensions: 760mm (H) × 436mm (W) × 671mm (D)
Width with optional side shelves: 883mm
External air option: Yes

That makes Cloudi a strong candidate for modern, well-insulated homes, as well as renovation projects where space is tight but performance still matters.

Where Cloudi Sits in the Clou Family

Cloudi joins an already extensive Clou range, which includes:

Conventional woodburners
Cook Top and bake oven models
Pellet stoves
Hybrid wood & pellet stoves

That matters, because it means Cloudi isn’t a one‑off experiment — it’s part of a long‑term platform. Design language, spare parts, accessories and technical philosophy are shared across the family, which is always good news for owners and installers alike.

If you like the Clou aesthetic but want the simplest, most compact expression of it — Cloudi is the entry point.

A Nod to the Austroflamm G1

If you owned, sold, or installed the original Austroflamm G1, Cloudi will feel like a respectful successor rather than a replacement. The stance, proportions and character are clearly inherited — but everything has been updated for modern expectations around efficiency, emissions and usability.

Think of Cloudi as the G1 after a decade of refinement, not a nostalgia act.

Early Take: Who Is Cloudi For?

Cloudi makes sense if you want:

A compact, high‑quality cast iron stove
Character without bulk
A proper flame picture in a small footprint
Optional cooking functionality
A stove that feels built to last, not just to sell

This is a stove for people who care about design but still want something that behaves like a serious heat source — not a decorative accessory pretending to be one.

Final Thoughts

Austroflamm have played this one smart. Cloudi doesn’t shout. It doesn’t chase trends. It quietly slots into the Clou family and does exactly what it should — offer a beautifully built, compact woodburner with genuine heritage and modern performance.

We’ll be keeping a close eye on UK availability, specifications and pricing as more information lands.
