Why so? I figured the air blowing across the top would be more effective since the top of the stove is always a lot hotter than the sides.

Couple reasons to me. Better combustion because the stove top isn't being artificially cooled and also if they moved the secondary air riser the blower won't be cooling the secondary air on its way into the firebox.

im expecting it will be before the next "selling" season, not sure as of yet. the sales guys will be back in the office soon i'll be able to get more info out of them and when I know you guys will very soon after (one of the "fringe bennies' of being a hearth.com member is you can sometimes get the scoop before it hits the general public)

bad news BB is she aint gonna fit in your fireplace (and you wouldn't be able to get the ash drawer out) im thinking this unit is a bit taller than the 30 mostly due to the taller pedestal to house that ash drawer and the firebox is taller as well.
im thinking about dropping one in myself this fall but it means I have to put a pellet vent in my study as the wife wont let me go back to strictly wood (she's a devout pellethead now , my fault I brought one home and let her see it work)

I think the blower and side panels are optional, no leg option. Release will be soon. I think they were shooting for May, but don't hold me to it. Mike is that correct?
Ok BG you got me all excited what about the new news for the Alderleas?
It's nothing major and not official, more cosmetic. They asked us not to talk about it until it is for real on the market. I did see a white enameled Neo 2.5 that looked quite sharp. But the porcelain build up made the air control grate annoyingly as it rubbed up against the finish under the ash lip. The painted version didn't have this problem.
I am thinking about just cutting the base off of the 25-PDVC and putting it in the fireplace.

to be honest BG , if that's what our guys said then that's the target. usually may is the "traditional" month for new product release from us , its enough time to get settled in after the trade show seasons and line reviews so we have a feel for products which are well liked by the vendors (and should sell well).
as for the side panels , I had assumed they were going to be standard with the blower , but I might need to confirm that. isn't my call to make. I'll know a lot more within a week or so when the gang gets back in town where I can "interrogate" them fully

okies, just send me a video of you trying to load it
All standard but no legs according to the handout in DC. 17 1/2 X 13 door glass. Bigger than the 13 X 10 in the door of the 30. But I could not see one thing about that stove that I liked.

The reason for cutting the welds and removing the base. It would work. Measured sixteen ways from Sunday.

well, if you have enough room to open the hopper and get the fuel in there it would work. would void the listing obviously but functionally its do-able. might be awkward to load though
It is that or hold an early estate sale. Two ESW wood stoves. One ESW pellet stove. Two Jotul wood stoves and a Jotul gas stove still in the crate. An EP insert would be great but not without clearing out some of this inventory.

Whether it is true or not, I'd like to think some of these changes are due to our whining. They used the drop down style side door from the biggest hearthstone.

In the picture , looks like the firebrick in the Englander goes higher up the side walls , this should make the stove more efficient.
I can't find anything on this except on the BakerStone site. And they only show one size, for $170.
I'm interested. I've thought about building something for the grill. I make a decent pie in the oven, but pizza year 'round would be nice. Don't make much in the summer. Pizza season?
A wood fired brick oven isn't in the cards right now, but it's on the list.

They must be having some issues with it. It has been at the show for 3 years I think, I saw it last year. Maybe warping parts or failed casting? Just a guess.
Thanks. A simple search on something like this usually comes up with amazon right away, but not for me. $129 sounds a lot better.
Good eye. Yes, there is an extra, horizontal row of firebrick. It's a tall firebox.
