I have been researching modern free-standing stoves for a while now and keep going back and forth.
We live in the Hudson Valley in NY just north of NYC. I'm coming from a historic house that I heated with an outside wood boiler as well as 2 older vermont castings. House is a split ranch and location of the stove would be centered in the house on one of the exterior walls (vented up and through attic to roof). Main floor is just shy of 1400sqft. Basement is somewhat below-grade and not too worried about...not that I have a choice either .
Suggestions and research have pointed me towards the following: Stuv 16, Neo 2.5, Osburn Matrix or Inspire, MF Nova, Invicta Kazan.
My wife is stuck on modern looking so it is what it is. Curious what everyone thinks is the best match of modern and most efficient
THANK YOU!
