Englander NC 30

I'm really interested in buying an Englander 30. Can someone post some good pictures of the firebox, ash tray, door handle latch assembly, door hinges etc...... ???? Keep in mind what you would like to see if considering a purchase when taking the pictures. As popular as stove as the Englander is, It surprise's me there isn't alot of good pictures of them on the net.

I wish I could help. I have a few, but they aren't what you are looking for. Maybe when I'm home and have the time.

First 3 with wood. then there are two more on the tiled hearth. The one with the stove pipe just setting in it is of the small 12, just ignore that.

Front of stove:


Door handle latch:


Firebox (with upright 2 liter bottle to show size) NOTE: Fire brick has been removed, keep that in mind:


Stove collar showing the baffle boards:

And still room for ice....

<<<<waits for all the natty light haters to show up!

The 30 burns unseasoned wood terribly. I shut her down for last winter because it was too frustrating. I know better now and am a year ahead on seasoning wood. Another thing to add is buy gloves that cover your whole arm. You will understand what I mean if you buy a 30.

Pretty much any modern stove burns green wood terribly. Do you think that the 30 has some sort of extra cripple in this regard?

I've learned not to mess with BB when it comes to his beer.

That's some really bad taste in beer.

You must be a "quantity" guy and not a "quality" guy.

Bart hooked one!

Every year with the Natty Light. It's like telling a smoker that they shouldn't. Why do y'all even bother. Everybody knows it's nasty and that Pabst is where it's at

Annnnnd........it begins.
BB,...pot stir-er.

Refer to my signature.

That latch is gonna getcha !! I have a mark ! It's the same on the 13

for the record, im an IPA fan but ive honestly never turned down an offered natty light

as for the 30, its a beast, she aint meant to be pretty though i think it looks pretty good. good sized firebox at 3.5CF as for the latch, its solid its a 1 piece 1/2"rod with a bend put in it pre-weld we pass the rod through the cast iron door set the depth weld in the washers inside and out of the door, then heat the rod with a torch and slip on a pipe and bend it to its end position. in 19 years working at ESW ive never once replaced a door because the handle failed, not once.

true unseasoned wood doent do wellin it ,but thats pretty much the same industry wide, as for heat there are very few if any stoves in its class i would hesitate to put it up against. like i said, its simply a beast of a stove.

Thanks for the heads up on the door latch. Didn't even think of that until you two mentioned it.

Yep...... Nuff said.

Got it twice in my 1st year. Open the door! ALL THE WAY!!

Yeah, that latch is deadly. It is the only complaint I have about the stove. I have a scar on my arm from it and the doctor wanted to know how the heck I got it.
