I've burned for 2 days over the weekend in my new 30. I love it. Much easier to control than my defiant and it throws just as much heat. What I really like about the 30 is how the heat pours out the front of the stove. My rear block wall just stays warm with it running, whereas my defiant would pump heat into the block wall behind it. Also I haven' even run the blower yet. As of right now, I wish I would have got this thing years ago.
