We where givin this stove. We have no idea on manufacturing/ how old all I have to go on is the door is cast and says VFC on the top and Orion on the bottom. It has a blower it works. It's a little rusty on top but the rest of it is in great shape as far as cosmetics go, any info would be great before we hook this up for the cabin!! Thank You in advance I can get better pics if needed but I can't find not one that looks like this anyplace!
