looking at a used stove with this description:

Up for auction is a beautiful enamel ivory Jotul #12 Firelight Wood Stove. This is a double door front or top loading stove with a foot pedal. It has a large ash pan for easy clean out. All burn plates are in good condition. The rear burn plate had a small crack in it and was cemented with high heat furnace cement. The enamel is in excellent condition but has a water stain on top from a kettle (pic #3) and small hairline crack (about an inch or so) on side in enamel not very noticeable (pic #5). This is a really gorgeous stove that looks great anywhere it sits. This is one of the biggest Jotuls you can buy with a weight of 475 lbs. (so if you buy, bring a friend along, I can help load but will require 3 people). 60,000 BTUs and takes a 24" log. The burn box is 2.8 cubic ft. and with catalytic technology it allows for a longer burn time so that means less reloads for you burn time is about 9-12 hrs. Overall dimensions of the stove are 31 1/2" tall X 29 1/2" wide X 26 1/2" deep. Also comes with the tool for the front doors, ash pan door, and damper. Any other info you need can be found at http://www.jotul.com/FileArchive/Files/USA/Old products/Old Stoves and inserts manuals/Jotul_12_Firelight_0910.PDF And if you have any additional questions please feel free to ask. Thanks for looking. Also have metalbestos through the roof kit, hooked up but never used for an additional $200.00 if needed.
 
I would want to know more about the 1" crack. Just the enamel or the stove too? Other than that, it sounds awesome, depending on the price.
