Looks & sacrifice of fire view are big time negatives. However with our remote location combined with time away for work( pretty common 2 work 16hrs for me & 12hrs for the bed warmer along w/ an hour commute each way) I felt like blaze king was the best choice. If all else fails, I can put it out back & have warm barncats, they wouldn't give a darn about anything but hott air! Gotta recoup my investment first. All n all the stove is doing exactly what the manufacturer & dealer said it would & I am pleased with it.
While I am still n the "thank you" mode I would like to mention the place that sold me the stove, the fireplace center in bloomington in. They are down to earth reasonable fair "stove guys" that helped me in everyway they could. Without hesitation they offered advice on my install as opposed to turning away a do-it-yourselfer guy as many other businesses do. I would buy another stove from them today if I had need of it. Also webby3650 for his mentoring.
