So what did they change on the new greenwood.Their website doesn't show anything to convince me that they have changed. No Only two pictures or no diagrams. Tough way to sell a new stove considering its past shortcomings. I still like the fact that you don't have to split your wood down to kindling, if they can get the other bugs out.
 
I bet those are "last years models". I heard from a bud that Pro-Fab in Manitoba was stuck with 150 of them and was trying to get rid of them anyway they could.
 
I just looked at there web site and the "New" Greenwood is different that the old one as far as their pictures go. It also says it drafts through the front door to eliminate the smoking problem when the door is open. I emailed them and asked if it was an open or closed system. I'm curious what the changes are.

The issues I know about are with the indoor units. They had to do with servicability mainly cleaning the tubes, it's a completely different style of boiler than what you are looking at.
 
When they built the seton design at the plant in ohio? they redesigned it with a bypass damper to keep the smoke out of your face.Ihave never heard how well it works. It looked like a good design as long as it did not get all mucked up from creosote.
