Lopi Leyden ver VT Encore

[Karin61]

I am very new to wood stoves and have some what narrowed my choices to Lopi Leyden or VT Encore. I'm heating 1500sq ft, want at lease put in a 18" log, like the top loading and two front doors (looks are very important to me-- I am a women after all) and burning time. I have found demos for sale on both, $1750 for VT Encore and $1500 for Lopi Leyden, not sure those are great deals. Cost is a real issue for me. Can anyone give me advice and maybe there's more stoves I should be thinking about. Thank you very much for your help

If you're buying new, I'd go Lopi over VC anyday.. that's easy.
