Did you talk with Christy? Did you get the new SPC50 or one of the last 207's? Both are similar designs and look almost identical. The newer SPC50 come out of our Alabama factory. looking forward to pics and thoughts.

Guess I got the newer model made by Breckwell.....but not sure 100% sure..???..I guess it is the same stove. My wife got the call back from Christy from USSC and placed the order...I did find out they have trimmed down the hopper from the squared sides(on the Nu-tec Upland 207) to a tapered design on the sides..I think it was a good choice..it gives the stove a better looks and it hides the sides from sticking out beyond the stove. Only downside is that I lost about 10 lbs of pellet space on the Breckwell..it now holds 65 lbs of pellets...compaired to 75 lbs on the Upland..The stove should be here in a week or so. Shipping was $385.00 to my door...with tailgate service...not bad...:) .On the stove weight the Breckwell weighs 385lbs...so they lost around 15 lbs by trimming the hopper down...I also see that Reading has a coal stove that is using the same stove....must be a good stove design...see below..

Ok..hi Owen.....you work for a great company....very friendly and helpful...also great conacts!!!...Christy send me my shipping info yesterday late in the day....got one of the Uplands 207....sounds good will be able to put the extra pellets in it...it will position it in a corner at a 45...I will keep in touch and let others know about the stove!!!...wondering I am installing in the brick house chimney...what size flue should I use..I have a tall chimney with a good draft...4" or 6"..??
 
If it's a tall chimney I would say a 6". You would install as you would any natural draft solid fuel appliance. Remember to follow NFPA211 and any other local codes that may apply. The 2-10-3 rule applies on this unit. Here's a link to the OM for you to peruse. Any questions just ask you have all my contact info. I'm always around. (although I'll be on Vacation next week.... :cool: )

Ok..so would I still need the double lined vent pipes..???...I think the stove has the 4" outlet on the top.....but not sure...I have the stove in my driveway...it came today...it was sure packed well...the guy that delivered it told me it weighs 515 lbs...the stove topped off at 400 lbs....so the extra weight would be the box and pallet.. Not sure how I will get it in the house...I guess I will leave in on the pallet and unbox it at the place you are installing it...lots of warnings on the box to pick it up with straps around the bottom...???

It is an Upland stove...I guess the Breckwell SPC 50 unit are not available yet......looks like this one is manufactured in China...it is on the front of the box...oh well..guess I will have to enjoy it as is.....anyways I do have a Thelin...made in the USA..will report back on the unboxing later next week..

I looked around - didn't see any updates on this new stove. Hope all is well. Looking forward to any first impressions etc. Although I despise the hand firing requirement - I love the looks of this stove - possible the best looking pellet stove out there...IMHO.

Thought I would let people know that the stove has been working great..no issues at all last winter. Easy to clean and puts out great heat..I keep my stove running 24-7. I found a great deal on the web for this stove..might what to check it out...

http://www.alpinehomeair.com/viewproduct.cfm?productID=453069974

$2495.00 with free shipping...



UPDATE..the price is now $4000.00...guess Breckwell up the price since they put the Breckwell name on it..You might be able to find the older Upland stoves around..the stoves are the same..only the hopper was made smaller when Breckwell got it..

Well I'm back......the stove has been great for 4 years...no issue at all.....I do get some black pellets showing up after they fall out of the bowl...not sure if it's the brand or the fan speed...so I did adjusted the fan this morning up to the mid point bar on the menu board. Beside this the only thing I do to this stove is to clean it every 4-5 weeks...I keep it lit 24-7. Been a great basic running stove...the heat output has been great..
 
Well I'm back...the Upland pellet stove has been great..been running strong every winter since 2014....so for 5 years I have had no major issues. I replaced the door gasket and this season I had to fix the air down pipe nozzle...the edges of the pipe nozzle were burnt ...so I had to add some metal to extend it back to it's original length. I m still getting a lot of black pellets after the burn......not sure if it is the pellet I'm burning or the air adjustment is off...been dealing with this for several years...I do get a ton of heat from the stove..the flame looks good...nice and blue in color around the pellet pot area. I do burn TSC pellets and I'm running a 6" pipe into my main brick chimney.
 
Just another update…stove has been strong for 9 years….only had to replace one auger motor on it….and the pot nozzle…ISSUES…several burn backs into the auger feeding tube only happens when the power has gone out…so I bought a generator to restart it.. I did get hold of the original builder of the stove…Peter Albertsen…he was very happy to hear from me…and was surprised that the auger motor lasted for 7 years! Anyways…thought I would update the stove…got to clean it out and get ready for the spring annual cleaning very soon.

I still have this stove.…I lost the auger motor last year….as mentioned above…so I got 9 years out of it…not bad. Only issue…burnback…have to get power to it when we lose the power…that has been the issues with it…
