It's a US Stove.

Amazing how it's 1/2 the price at Costco compared to the US Stove price of $1699 ON SALE.

I think I could fit that stove in my hopper. jk

I saw one last season at TSC and it was going for about $1200. I gave it a good look over, to small for me. I think a member here did buy one.

Just found out something interesting during a search on Froogle.com for this stove....it's also now being sold by Home Depot for $999.00! Englander has some competition in the big box stores it seems.

I saw the stove 2 yrs ago in Tractor Supply for around $1200 . It`s quite attractive but basically made of thin and tinny sheet metal and I was less than impressed with the heat exchanger or what I thought to be a heat exchanger.
But for all I know it could very well be a good heater. Anyone want to be a beta tester?

What blows my mind - the stove at Costco is $899.00 out the door and the dealer cost for the same stove in the best column is + $200.00 more. I guess the stove shop dealers should go to Costco to supply the shop.

pete, I wonder if the unit qualifies for the Costco "extended" warranty (not the 90 days like electronics...) so you can use for a few months and then bring it back as you didn't like it ......

I didn't know Costco had any kind of "extended warranty", since I don't go there to shop....nearest one to me is about 35 miles.

Only "warehouse club" that is fairly close is BJ's, and even that is 15 miles. I guess I'm in the "no man's land" of warehouse clubs.

basically they don't give you any hassle when you return stuff...

I think it doesn't have electronic ignition.

Costco's has a LIFETIME return policy....except electronic's, 90 days, TV's were lifetime before 2007, how i know?, i've returned a few things over the years, think about this, if it breaks in 5-10 yers return it for a FULL refund including tax
If i was in need of a freestanding stove i'd buy it in a heartbeat!
