Likes: Huge heat. Very efficient heats my 1970's home without furnace even in sub zero temps looks good and uses 2/3 the wood my old smoke beast did.


Dislikes: Cat light off requires a lot of heat always have to build a fairly large fire it will maintain a small one after the cat reaches 1200 and stays there for a while not so great when it is cool enough for a fire but i don't need a big one. Ash pan dump is a waste easier to scoop.


Comments: Local dealer is great at selling but parts are marked up over 100% plus shipping vs buckstove directly U understand they need to make money but...Service is so so I called with a wiring question on my old Lopi three times and they never bothered to call back ect...
