Hey guys,
Just wanted to get some opinions. I am upgrading from the worst pellet stove ever invented (The Whitfield/Lennox) Profile 30. Its 6 years old and has the biggest design flaw of all time. The photoeye which gets dirty and needs to be cleaned almost every other day. To get to it, you have to remove the pellets in the hopper, remove the housing, remove the lens, clean it, reinstall. Such a hassle. Anyway, I want a new stove that looks like a cast wood burning stove. After doing some research, I have narrowed my selection to these two stoves. I am leaning towards to M55, because of looks, design and reviews. The prices are pretty much the same. About $4,000. $3900 plus tax. for the stove with black enamel. The Harmon salesman said the bottom pellet feed is the best design in the business for ease of clean and ash build up. Does anyone have some insight on these stoves? I realize they are both good stoves. Just wondering about the agitator feed system on the M55 as opposed to the Harmon bottom feed. Thanks for any insight.
Chris
