Good Deal on Used Fireview?

Price is very good
Thoughts?
Not sure what a baffle would run
Not sure if this is the catalytic converter model but if so would assume that is not working as well?

In it's current state you would have no secondary combustion - just a box for pre-EPA burning. Good price, even without the cat/baffle. I wonder if a 1995 model is before the stove was redesigned to have a good airwash, for clean glass? Call Woodstock, ask them what they think - they could do the rebuild for you, as well. if you want to drive the stove up there. That's the way I would go, to be sure the stove is in top shape to run, if the price of an overhaul from them was not too steep. Worth asking.

Looks like it's missing the bypass plate, cat housing and cat. I wonder what it looks like inside the fire box? $350 still sounds like a good deal even if you need to replace some parts. Woodstock can help you rebuild that stove if your a little handy.

Definitely call Woodstock as they can help.

Looks like a complete baffle kit for the model 201 is $270 on the Woodstock web site. Not to bad if that's all you need.

I looked at buying a stove like this one time and one of the things that swayed my decision not to buy was that it didn't have an airwash system to keep the glass clear like the newer models.
