Likes: Heats for a long time even after the fire has gone out


Dislikes: Logs set perpendicular to combustion air inlet and burn from the center out which provides for a slow startup. Creosote forms on glass, but not a problem.


Comments: Even though a challenge to start sometimes, I have had great success with this stove. No mechanical issues yet. Heats our 2nd floor well in conjunction with the Buck stove in the basement. Great stove and highly recommended. Very elegant design and works like it's name.
