I like mine a lot but because I modified it a lot. Depending on how large of an area you want to heat, I would consider either hooking it to your main furnace or putting a larger blower on it from the start. I'm burning for my fourth year and have only had to replace one of the botom grates that warped. I think they are a good deal for the money. Here's my setup. www.hearth.com/econtent/index.php/forums/viewthread/24925/

i searched it again and found a lot of info on it, Thanks

Has anyone here tried to build their own wood furnace? It really doesn't look like it would be that hard if u made a simple loading door and left out the automatic damper and just added the screw damper below and the plug in the rear for cumbustion air
