This is my first post to the site, although i have been hanging around for about 6 months. I finally decided to sell the Fisher Papa Bear. After reading all the great info for the past 6 months i bought the Englander 30 NCH. Last night was the first burn and i have to say the stove is fantastic, it will really pump out some heat and the secondary burns are very nice. I am also very impressed with the burn time, went to bed around 9 and only put two pieces of cherry on as i am still getting used to how it burns (stove top was around 575) woke up around 5:30 raked it around and still had hot coals. Great site with lots of useful info and so far it seems to be a great stove.
