Hi all,
New to this forum and just wanted to say thanks for all the help if gotten from trolling around. lol I have a Countryside Magnum in my finished basement. We are looking for a nice stove for upsatirs living/dining room area. We have an open floor plan and about a 1,000 sqft to heat. My wife and I are really leaning toward the Cumberland MF3800. We have a log cabin and she really likes the look of it. Anyone that knows anything about these stoves or any tips with venting or running I would really appreciate your input.
Thanks

!!. I bought mine from OSJ...but i researched a lot of stoves. I bought it for 1400.00, figured wth, if I don't like it i can sell it for the same price right? Mine has burned the worst and the best pellets, sure I get more ash with the worst (NEWP) heat somewhat less. Burned corn, no issues, lots of heat. easy to operate, easy to clean, I clean it once a week, and dump the burn pot on every pellet load. So far 2 years into this pellet world, no problems. It has paid for itself already for the lack of oil I buy! So at this point I am making money..I installed it myself, I can work on it myself if that time comes, dealer support where I live is pretty far away, but if you call them direct, which I have, only for questions in regards to operation,they are very nice. They have a great warranty and seem willing to stand behind it. There are a lot of heat exchange tubes in the box which I believe contribute to getting the heat out and a huge ash drawer which I dump about every two weeks, I have used 2 ton of pellets already this year, with that so called polar vortex, 2 bags a day, typically it is one bag or less a day . just as an FYI, I have 1700 foot, ranch...no additional heat necessary, bedrooms do remain a little cooler, but I appreciate that. you will find a whole bunch of opinions here, we seem to be bias towards the stove we have because we all feel we did our due diligence on whats best for us....I have ZERO regrets with this stove. Yo, 1520.00 installed how could I go wrong? But in the end, the choice (there are a lot of them) is all yours. Do your research, go look at the ones on your short list, make up your mind and start saving money on heating your home.
