Looking for a new Stove - Observations and Questions

Oh yeah that`s right ! The Englander would also have been another choice I would have made , but at the moment they are not available in any of the big box stores that normally carry them during the heating season. I might have went for an Englander instead of the Harman myself.

sounds like you are off to a great start, just remember , good service is rewarding, compliments are nice (thanks by the way) but that smug feeling of "i got that sucker nailed" when you fix a tough one is almost a narcotic. its FUN dammit!! as long as you keep it fun , you will do an excellent job at it.
