72 bags since December 1. Stove has not run over medium overnight, and only very little assist in the furthest bedroom from the unit. Even with a semi mild winter here, I have another setting if needed in an extreme winter. Best of all, no propane heat, and no cold girls.

Around 75 bags here.
50 bags (1 Ton) of Maine's Choice.
25 or so bags of Okanagan's
I bought 2 tons for this year so far.
1 each MC and Okies.
Gonna pick up a 3rd ton this week.
For the warm winter we have had that will carry me into next season no problem.

Assuming you're asking me, the ~2k sq ft. first floor of a solid but uninsulated 19th Century building with uninsulated heating ducts, boatloads of huge windows and 10' ceilings. The 130K+ BTU oil furnace struggles with it (both floors), the 60K tops Revolution is way underpowered for the task, but adequate for the first floor since it's been a mild winter.

142 bags since install of stove in Sept 2011 thru Jan 31. Not a drop of propane used so far during this heating season. Why, why, why did I not install a stove years ago......

Hey Guys:
I have burned 2 1/2tons & 0 propane. Down here in Southern Ohio, the winter has been mild,
40's during the day & 20's at nite. I started with 5 tons of American Wood Fiber, so I have more
than enough to last this winter. Mama likes it warm & the house has been 72-73F.

110 Bags since Mid-October and 150 Gallons of HHO since Aug. 8th. Not bad for a 3200 sqft House (@ 70+ Degrees most of the time)

52 used so far since mid Oct. Thermostat set on 71. My average is 0.44 bags a day. I am heating 2200 Sq ft. Upstairs heatpump thermo set on 69 and usually comes on at night a little bit.
If the mild weather keeps up I will use less than two tons!
Loving my electric and gas bills! + keeping my house at a much warmer temp than I used too!
