    They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but everyone knows "Butt Ugly."
    Here are some "uglys" that take the cake.

    Interestingly, these stoves are manufactured in Japan and are marketed as being "more pleasent" to the eyes than the traditional North American stoves that resemble "Grandma's Wood Stove" rather than a modern day urban appliance.

    "pellet stoves are hot. Unfortunately in North America they are also ugly, looking like olde-fashioned wood stoves that would fit in grandma's house but not in any self-respecting modernist's. In Japan, Satoshi Seki designed this modern and colourful unit for Shimotani. Now why can't North American manufacturers do this?"

    Not surprisingly, their spokesman for advertising happens to be North America's own Tucan Sam.

    US stoves - chinese window stove should be on the top of the list. Must be properly displayed in the window with charred, melted siding for maximum impact.

    Well I was expecting a thanks for all of the fish, followed by the I'll be here until Thursday response from you to Eaton's post.

    We know that the world ends on Friday because of this post, http://www.hearth.com/talk/threads/mayian-weather-forecast.101394/ so I was curious if Eaton's entertainment was leaving early to avoid the rush.
