Hi to All -
I'm happy to have surfed into this forum. It seems to be filled with good advice and knowledgeable users.
I'm ready to buy my first (EVER) wood stove. I'm leaning heavily towards the Hampton H300 with the beautiful brown ceramic finish. There are numerous older posts about it.
I would like to hear from folks who have been using their stove for years. Does the ceramic finish "hold up" to years of use? Are you happy with your purchase?
Is the 2-speed fan a great idea or a great profit item for Hampton?
We have a dealer in my town, but can better deals be shopped elsewhere?
How much (roughly) should installation cost? and is professional installation imperative?
SORRY about having so many questions - but I'm starting from scratch... Thanks in advance!
