Ok a friend needs my help picking one of two stoves and I will no doubt be a principle wrench in its care.
Both are Whitfields, mid nineties Quest or the newer Cascade. Both look good but I like the Quest for the simpler controls but the Cascade for igniter.
 
The igniter does it for me. I like setting the thermostat and letting the stove turn itself on and off on it's own as needed.
 
I don't know of any Cascade owners or any reviews of the stove. Lennox buying Whit worries me with quality on newer models. Theres a local Auburn for sale for $900 that looks real nice too now:). It may not eat pellets as well as corn but with last seasons pellet crunch the multifuel is nice.
