Hit our local Rural King store for an oil sale tonight...went by the wood and pellet heaters and saw a new model...a Newmac...I didn't even remember that they were still in the game...but then on the way home I remembered that they were bought by USSC.
Didn't spend too long, but took a quick look in and around it...firebox reminds me a bit of what I recall @Mrpelletburner posting of one of his HYC Fire Chief bombs...the thing that caught my eye was the price....$599, and not a sale price either! Heck, I doubt that would even cover @lampmfg metal COST for a Kuuma! It appears to be set up for a full size supply and return plenum...has a 20" x 20" (?) filter above the blower in the return side.
Snapped some pics for y'all to drool over...
I should have gotten one of the inside of the firebox too, but I don't think everything was in place, and there were a bunch of misc parts and boxes in there so...

Oops
I think that cat is already out of the bag though...do you still have your YouTube vids posted?
I dunno on the profit...I was thinking the same thing...mfg profit...then pay to ship it to the stores...then the store makes some $ on it...must cost them $150 to make it!
Half makes me wonder if somebody marked the price wrong...hey maybe I should buy what they have in stock...might be able to make a killing on them in January after the price gets fixed!
OK, never mind...I see what's going on here...this is not a new model...and its not 2020 certified...I bet they are blowing these things out to dump them before they can't sell them anymore.
