Likes: Overnight burns. Can t think off anything else.


Dislikes: NOT MUCH HEAT OUTPUT. Very hard cold start, smokes +++. Dealer would not give me my money back, blamed my wood first, then my chimney, then my isolation, then the location of the house, then the neighboors house location, then.... That stove is rated for 3000 sq foot. Thats probably true for Florida or California in August, but forget it for cold weather.


Comments: I wouldn t recommend this stove for northern region. Very useless stove when temperature below 0 celcius. You have to burn that stove 24/7 none stop to feel a slight heat.
