Napoleon npi45 insert. The stove works great but hopper only holds a bag which is okay but its a pain to even to get that in, you have to keep pushing the pellets back and up just get a full bag in. Has anyone made there own hopper extension.
I hate my hopper...

My hopper is easy to load. The only thing that sucks is the bags are getting heavy. 1st one isn't too bad, Second my back starts yackin at me and the third is almost painful. But I only need to do this every few days.
Tell me whats this hoppa thing you all speak of? I am a DTV guy.

I've been spoiled by the 145 lb hopper in my Austroflamm Integra. It was the primary reason my wife suggested the Integra over smaller models.. Good call on her part ~ having burned seventeen tons over the years, dear wifey has dumped just one bag on the hopper (I was out of town for the week)..
Better to fill the hopper than the oil tank~!

That looks fun. Risky at my age though!

I will say I have a Harman insert, and the hopper opening is the perfect size (and it's the first stove I owned) - so when my parents just rented a house with the same Napoleon insert and I went to put pellets in, I was shocked. Especially since there's another 6 inches of clearance behind the hopper opening that could have been used to make the opening bigger.
