Is there anything to not like about a Kuuma?

[Xc1974]

I'm getting pretty close to buying a Kuuma and I'm just wondering if there is anything someone doesn't like about their Kuuma. I've read plenty of good comments about them and am just curious to make sure I wouldn't have any disappointments.

I was in your same boat last year. I searched here and everywhere else for an issue. I think they are few and far between, at least I hope. Only issue is you should order quick to give them time to build it for you. This will be my first winter with one, but I think they fall into "you get what you pay for."

No glass door. you miss out on constantly adjusting it, and it does not load itself. Damn it...

I suppose the wood doesn't cut and split itself either?

Nope, I may need a new unit this one seems a bit lazy now that I think about it.

Mine is coming in a few weeks! Pretty excited about it. I researched it to death before pulling the trigger.

Will do! It'll be a learning xperience for sure. Might hire a pro for the ductwork. Don't really understand it fully yet.
