Purchased from: Fireplace Retail Store -


Likes: Extended hopper allows you to run the unit for several days. Can be wired to a thermostat so that it runs like a furnace. Autoigniter makes this unit fully automated.


Dislikes: Cheaply built unit and have had nothing but problems with the electronics after just 6 months of use. Have had to replace the combustion blower and control panel twice. Firebox already showing signs of warping. Glass gets dirty within a few hours.


Comments: We really wish we had gotten a different stove. We bought it because we had heard a lot of good things about this model, but we have had nothing but problems with ours. Now we are stuck with it so we're really just trying to get the most out of it until we can get another one. Breckwell's customer service is oustanding, it's too bad their product is such a piece of crap.
