I am looking for "a deal" on a good used insert. They don't seem real easy to come by in these parts. We have a medium sized fireplace with real masonry chimney that is about 3/4 to one side in the center of a 1950s brick house. Because of where the fireplace is situated, with a door on the wall next to it and another not far to the right, I don't think a freestanding stove will do the trick, but kind of want an insert that will stick out a little bit for convection heat if the electricity went out and we couldn't rely on the blower.
I'm not seeing a whole lot out there that thrills me, new or used, and the new I definitely can't afford anyway.
Just saw this on craigslist, it looks nice but I have no idea of the age (and 400$ isn't such a deal if it's old as can be)
(broken link removed)
Anyone hear of this maker and are they decent? Is this an older stove? Do they have catalytic combustors and would that be a good thing in a stove the age of this one or not? Thanks for any info.
 
The only info I could dig up on manufactuerer of the Silent Flame insert.
