New Insert Owner

[Wilt12]

Hi everyone!

1st post but have been reading this site for sometime now trying to gain more and more information on different stoves.

I've run across a fisher insert, not sure which model it is. I'm thinking the grandma? (Pictures attached) Would like more information on it. We are getting ready to move and would like to put an insert in an existing masonry chimney to cut down on propane costs. We currently run a regency medium insert (I2400) and it does well for our house now, at 1200sq ft with very very poor insulation and windows. But our new home will be 2400 sq ft.

Have been considering putting in a new stove (blaze king or buck 91) but ran across the fisher and thought it might be worth trying for a winter or two for the price. The seller is asking 500$

Any information or tips would be GREATLY appreciated.

Welcome to the forum;
If the Insert measures 21 across the front, and 32 1/2 deep without ash fender, it's a full size "Fireplace Insert" with no bear name given. This model uses Grandma size doors and screen.
