What to look for when buying a wood burning stove...

[FyreBug]

Most of points are good, but need a lot more detailing and in some cases like soapstone stoves, a whole lot more information. There are also some bad assumptions or just plain errors.For example, I have not heard Lopi owners complaining about frequent replacement of baffle bricks. As written it feels more like an insight into how a steel stove salesperson sees the customer, but with some tweaking, it could prove useful to some folks.

On that point it should have stated pumice bricks not refractory. If the point about bricks is made before the baffle it will be less confusing.

Would you mind pointing out any other 'bad assumptions or errors'? While many of us may be from the industry it is always better to refine the message accurately and for the benefit of the consumer.
