Hello Everyone! New Member Here.
I read the following thread: https://www.hearth.com/econtent/index.php/forums/viewannounce/13750_2/ titled "Please read and understand before posting "Which stove should I buy" questions!"
Been reading a lot, everywhere I can find information. Looked at just about every manufacturer I could find (although I am sure I missed a few).
Seen many complaints, mostly dealing with seals breaking very quickly, and on almost newer units.
Which wood stove (for heat and cooking) would you guys recommend? Which is built like a tank, literally. That will last, a long long time. I am not overly concerned about a price at the moment (meaning that if it makes sense, spend it). This is for preparation, and I simply would not want one to wear out literally in a year from every day use. Now if people were to ask where I live, or how often I would be burning wood, assume it would be daily, this would essentially be the stove.
Truly open to your recommendations, as I am completely ignorant on which are "hype" and which are true quality I can depend on. I know that you get what you pay for.
Feel free to direct me. But yes, I do want to spend whats needed, not over, and not under. Essentially, we just want a wood stove that we can cook on daily, and heat the house a few months of the year.
Recommendations?
