So far all of two small fires has been through the side door. Never used one before and thought it would be awkward, such as the woodstock stoves side load only, but i must say i love it. I will say nice to have the option of the front door but its side load only. Tools are there so they are right at hand. Dog bed gone anyhow.
Ill need another day to pull it all together, but i plan on showing some before during and whatnot pics, as i know they are loved.
By the way if i would have known i was going this route...i would have just ripped the fire place out and replaced with a true hearth, but i do like the look of a hearth mount.
Found out i didnt have enough thinset so no more fires till hearth pads done. Okay since mild temps here now.
