Best combuster for replacement

[clemsonfor]

Ok there is probably a thread on this already, but i want a current one as sometimes quality and parts vary over time.
.


+First off who are the makers of combusters, i know Firecat and Condor.


What in your opinion is the beter one? Preference steel or ceramic, reasons and life of each.

No opinions?

I haven't replaced mine, but I have a Firecat on order for my sister's stove. The first one arrived broken, waiting on the replacement. The price was right, and BKVP suggested them for a BK replacement cat.

Sud-chemie was the manufacturer of the OEM cat in my stove.

Steel lights off at lower temps, but people that have tried them have gone back to ceramic due to quality issues.
