Hello and thanks in advance. We bought a house with a Countryside pellet stove a few months ago and we decided it's time it gets retired as we're having board issues where it randomly doesn't work and needs cleaning very often.

So from what I can tell the Harman P is very liked here and is on our list of finalist. But we were looking to get some input on the Iron Strike Winslow and Quadra Fire Classic Bay 1200. All stoves are sold by the same dealer who has a great track record in our area. He initially pointed us to the Harman P and Accentra but we didn't care for the look of the Accentra. We really liked how the Winslow and 1200 looked (both look fairly similar) but I'm hoping to find some owners and get there thoughts on them.

Our house is a very open ranch layout with a 19x22 living room on the east end (which is where pellet stove will sit) that has a 12' archway that goes into our 24x22 kitchen/dining room. Then there's the typical ranch hallway with bathroom and bedrooms on the west end.
 
17season with the quad cb1200, heating a1600sf ranch with vaulted ceilings. Replaced 2 snap disc’s and a convection blower in that time. Easy to clean and the warden likes it. When she’s cold she turns up the tstat.
