i got a wood stocker stove (really cheap) thought it looked great and would heat my house built in heater stove looked huge i only have a 1000 square foot ranch, i used it for a week with a ton of problems i cut my own wood a mix of hard woods and some burch. 1 problem i cut my wood to 18" lengths and the stove burn aera was too small, 2 cause it didnt hold much wood it wouldnt go more than 4-5 hours even with the stove full, 3 it didnt make much heat going threw wood alot it would only make my house 70, its in the basement but i vented it, lastly and the reason i un hooked and sold it it made alot of smoke and build up in the chiminy made me nervous with a non epa stove so i found a deal on a newer stove it looked small but cheap so i grabbed it its a england stove works 18-tr it uses half the wood and im still at 70 in the house, my only issue now is i need a trick to get the stove to go all night. fully packed with wood it will go 5-6 hours. it has no adjustment for the air vent just has a damper i close it up all the time i love this stove just wish i could it it to stay lite 8 hours any ideas
