Does anyone have a Napoleon 1400 freestanding?

I would do a search on the site. Quite a few past threads about the 1400

I have a 1450 which is the basic black version, same firebox, controls, blower etc.

It's a good stove and for a 1000 sqft would probably do great. Only thing I disliked is the firebox is a little small to try to get really long overnight burns. It would have a good amount of coals and get the morning ad going, but there wasn't much heat coming off it by morning.

Other than that, no issues whatsoever.

I burned a nap 1450 for a few years at my old house. We liked the stove and often cooked on top. It burns hot and likes good wood. Be careful not to lift the baffles when loading overnight loads. It will give tons of heat if you use good wood.

I apologize as it appears that I was only using the top search bar-which gave me too many variable threads. Using the forum specific search bar and the title check box made searching much easier. Please bear with me as I get accustomed to the site! I'm quite torn between jotul f500 and the Nap 1400C. I'm used to steel stoves, so the Nap is an easier choice.

have had a 1400 Pedestal for 20 yrs and 2 different homes. 3yrs in a 1500 sq ft with a full insulated basement well insulated house
would heat the whole house fine 17 yrs in a 1800 sq ft with full insulated basement medium quality insulation heats house 80% of winter, below -10F needs a little assistance both homes in Northern Ontario winter temps could reach -40F
should heat your 1000 sq ft no problem may even blow you right out clean burning might want to consider the optional fan good luck

Hi Bostongal- the Napoleon steel stoves are a well performing bunch. The 1400 series has grown expensive over the years though. If you're looking for value, consider Osburn and Enviro, even PE- all offer great value for the money spent. All are superb, clean burning stoves. Hard to beat the Jotul Oslo for its looks and great performance. Jotul is running a 200.00 off coupon till the end of March. Good luck with your search.

We have a 1400P and love it. It does more then what it was designed to do. We did replace the fiber baffles with fire brick. With good wood, I would image a 1400P would heat 1000 sqft in the coldest climate with ease.

I had the 1400c our previous 1600 sq ft home, put out allot of heat. If I could do it over I would have went with something smaller though. This house was very insulated, so we always seemed to be running it 1/2 throttle. Great stove, easy to operate, and looked just beautiful in the living room.
