Im new to the pellet stove however i love the idea. I purchased one this year and the one i bought sucks. No ash pan or auto. start. I have been looking at a few newer models the st. croix hasting 1800sq ft, the mt vernon 3300 sq ft, and i just saw the lennox bella 2300sq ft today. I like the bella because i think the size is perfect. with cold temp. and the size of my house 1650sq ft i think this one would be the best one for my house, but i cant find any reviews. the mt vernon is the same price and looks to be a great stove, but im worried about the size of the unit 60200 btu. I need about 42000 btu to heat my house on a cold day. I also like the st croix and have heard good things i just think that it would be under powered. Also what would happen if i got the mt vernon could it be to big? someone please help?
