OK Heritage users - I have been meaning to ask this of all of you for some time and forgot - until last night. Do your stoves' ash pan doors need extra-human strength to close? My wife was trying to close it for the first time last nigh, and she didn't have the strength. When you open mine, it pops open, and then to close it, it almost like it's spring loaded - I have to get on my knees and push as hard as I can on the handle. Then, while still pushing as hard as I can, turn the handle to lock it. Sometimes, I have to try 2-3 times if the latch doesn't catch. I bought this stove slightly used, and haven't had a chance to go back to the dealer to check out floor models. I'm wondering if maybe this one was put together wrong or somehow adjusted wrong.
Let me know if you get blisters on your hands when you try to shut it...
