I have had one most of the day in Greenville SC. I can't get over how much heat these new stoves put out and how little wood they use.

A fire already in Ga? It must be a little colder than normal, no?
Nice insert and surround.

I have 20 inches of snow coming tomorrow. I'll switch weather with you for 1 week. I love my winters...in WINTER. People's pumpkins are going to be buried.

They won't be alone:
"Significant snowfall amounts possibly reaching 30 to 50 centimetres are expected, especially over higher elevations. High northeasterly winds of up to 110 km/h are expected late in the day Sunday"

Woke up to a dusting of snow and a cold stove. Still learning on when to load for an over night burn. With this cold weather It has been the first time actually had to worry about a reload rather than a fire just to break the chill in the house.

It's been more than 20
below normal here the last couple days, and I've been loading the Dw and MIL's Buck 91 every 12 hrs.
I don't know what kind of wood you're burning, but the mighty Buck can go 12 hrs pretty easily for me even on a load of Black Cherry. Now that I've replaced all the gaskets and am able to cut the air further, I'm interested to see what it will do on loads of White Oak and Pignut Hickory. I may have to not fill the box full, just so I can load on a 12-hr schedule with enough room in the box for the next load.
BTW Jasper, feel free to post or PM me with any questions you may have about the Buck. It's an awesome, high-quality stove and will serve you well.

Thanks woody I need all the help I can get. I got a 7 hour burn on a load of sweetgum on a hot coal bed. I am saving the oak for when winter really shows up.

6 inches of snow greeted me at my "deer camp" this weekend. I have electricity and an outhouse but no water.

Neat looking heater. Any idea who made it? Looks like it could be a commercial product.
In PA,today it didn't get above 39 and big winds. I'm on top of a mountain, no leaves left on all.my oaks. Fire has been running on and off all weekend.
