Well guys I finally made my decision on what stove to get! I was between the Woodstock Fireview, PE Alderlea T5 and a Jotul 500 Oslo. And the winner is..... the Jotul!. I think that with some really cold weather and low wind chills the Fireview would struggle a bit at times. The T5 is a great stove and is somewhat comparable to the Jotul 500 Oslo. The price difference between the T5 and the Oslo were about $100 difference. This is $300 cheaper than the Fireview and it has more firepower. For me personally I think the Oslo has the edge on appearance although the PE is a great stove. Even though I am going with the Oslo I would still recommend any of the three stoves I mentioned.
The dealer I went to sells, Harman, Jotul, PE, and St. Croix stoves. He seems to be very honest and talked about the pros and cons of both the Jotul and the PE. He also told me to get my pipe measurements and he would help me design my chimney. His prices for a chimney sounded reasonable as well.
