The new quad has 3 different stated efficiency ratings as shown in the attached .pdf of the paperwork that came with the stove. I wonder what it really is.

One says about 63%, another 90.6%, and yet another 79.82%

We can safely assume that it is not 63% since that number wouldn't satisfy the EPA folks. 90.6% seems to me to be an outrageous claim for efficiency of a wood stove. 79.8% seems to be a pretty reasonable number for a modern EPA woodstove. Go with that. I hope this helps :)
