The rats chewed up the original when the stove was stored in the basement last month.

I bought it at the local wood stove store for about 45 bucks. Opened the front door and tucked it in on top of that top shelf. Took about a minute.

I have run the stove for about 20 hours without the blanket, it seemed to run fine, I never got it above 550 stove top. We shall see how it runs with the blanket installed.
 
$45? Yikes! Hopefully you will not need one for a long time, but in the future to save money there are some much cheaper alternatives . . . in my own case, the local shop selling Jotuls gave me the cheaper option of buying the same material by the foot . . . with a couple of gaskets, tube of cement and three feet of blanket I think I paid $35 in total.
