Got my new stove today couldn't be happier with it now just need to wait for this fall so I can actually enjoy it's purpose as opposed to just staring at it. It's a timberwolf 2200 it replaced my godin coal stove and should make heating my place a little easier this year, major upgrade in size. I will review the stove later this season when I actually get to burning it!

HI C- Enjoy your new stove. Timberwolf is a division of Napoleon stoves, you'll like the ease of how it heats. Get your good dry wood ready now. Take care.

Thanks! Can't wait. Got a little over 4 chords of beech and oak that's been drying for about 2 years now been splitting all spring for 2 winters from now, wife thinks I'm crazy but when the oil bill is cut in half, who's the crazy one then. Yea hopefully this new stove is conservative on wood.
 
Congrats on your upgrade, install looks nice!
 
Congrats. The new stove looks great. What are your plans with the ol' stove ?.....very ornate, I'd repaint and use it as a conversation piece.

Actually the little godin worked very well, and I'm glad some friends of the family are actually going to take it to use the stove what it was for intended, which was to heat a small room, not a whole house. Plus side is I get to still use it when we visit the friends mountain house where the stove is going to be located. Which will be very gratifying when I show them how to heat a room with a stove that doesn't look like much more than a conversation piece. Can't wait to use my new stove!!
 
You going to love the new technology. I upgraded a few years ago from a old parlor stove. She was beautiful but quite the pig. I doubled my burn time and halved my wood usage.
 
Congratulations! That looks like it's going to put off some serious heat >>

That's awesome you found a function for the old stove! It's great when they can be used again in another setting instead of just being tossed :)

Yes, I am extremely happy that the old stove is going to a good home. It's well deserved it got me through my first week in my new home without power in the middle of the coldest winter the northeast has seen in years. She earned her keep for sure, all the new stove has to do is match that or do better which I'm sure won't be a tough feat!
 
Is it generally worth keeping old stoves in action given how much more efficient the new ones are? Whatever one saves by not purchasing one is traded in lost efficiency.
 
Nice upgrade, I am sure you will enjoy the difference this winter!
