Hello All, Just stumbled upon your site while crawling the web for info, And it looks like this is the place to get my question answered, so thank-you.
I want to get a Wood Insert to supplement my oil, My fireplace is centrally located in a series of 4 rooms that are all open to each other and consist of 1500 sq. ft.
The only reason I am looking at the VC stoves is because I know someone selling a brand new, never used CW2500x insert, for 1400$ includes blower and surround, bought last year he said for 1700$
I noticed VC has a CJW2500X, anyone tell me what the difference is?
Also VC has DW2500X listed in their catalog, which I called a dealer and they gave me the price of 1099$ new today. (includes blower and surround)
What I can't get for info from any dealer is the difference between the 3 stoves and why the price difference is so big between the CW and DW
Well I just got off the phone with a dealer and was told the CW isn't made anymore and they have a "winter warm series" But from what I noticed from VC's catalog, the Winter Warm series is a different animal than the DW2500. He also tried to tell me the CW and DW are the same except the CW had a cast iron front where the DW doesn't, Does that warrant a 700$ difference?
I am looking for a basic insert (no frills) Is the DW2500 going to do the job? If the front on the CW is cast iron, should i spend a extra 400$ for it.
Also every store I have gone into that sells all the other brands all start at 2000$ and go up, What is the big difference?
Thanks all, Rick
