...I think the ash and rust comes FREE!!
....but I guess it does not come with the Impingement plate

That looks rough......I spend another 250.00 and get the same stove on Craigslist......

guys im gonna tell ya , that stove looks like a train wreck! was abused very badly. i'd wave you off on that stove unless you want to put a lot of work into it. even then im not sure , could be some warpage in the heat exchangers couldnt tell for sure from the pictures but i do see signs that it could be there. i'd advise against buying that stove unless possibly for spare parts and even then who knows what works in it.

Good advice, Mike.

Looks like $250.00 worth of TROUBLE!!

 

[stoveguy2esw]

yeah , i showed the pictures of the poor thing around here at the office and got a chorous of OMG!!

guy says it "runs great" too , theres enough ash in that stove to plant an acre of corn in it, naaaah , its not worth messing with.

I'd listen to Mr.Holton on this one.
All I can say is WOW!

does craigslist not have pictures? im not that familiar with craigslist. would be nice to see what the stove looks like without having to go look at it. stove might be in pristine shape , might look like that other one , cant tell without seeing. if anyone is interested in that stove and can get the serial number i can look in our database and see if we have anything on it, if it was registered i can see if there is any history on the stove. no big deal for me to do it, just pm the info to me and i'll look it up when im in the office. almost like having "carfax" for a stove i guess.

The seller can put up to 4 pictures on Craigslist, if they want to....

Apparently my saracsm did not come through the computer screen

I Especially like the "works Great" part. It looks like he rode 'er hard and left 'er wet, so to speak!

That has got to be one of the worst I have ever seen.

 

[stoveguy2esw]

[camdids]

Mike, I'm sure a lot of people on this forum would LOVE looking over the pics you have of the "basket case" stoves...have any that are on your computer that you can post....maybe a couple a day?

 

[stoveguy2esw]

alas they are at work , i cant get to them from here , might can dig a few out and sneak em up from there one day

 

[InsaneWayne]

That's what happens when you burn corn in a pellet only stove.

YES!

I cant resist looking at the new englanders at HD or Lowes, opening them up and gawking at how clean they are!
This stove pains me! Im so annal about cleaning my stove!
Mike, you must hate seeing this!
