I know this is a loaded question and there are almost certainly vendors in this forum, but for the super knowledgable/honest/non-vendor catalytic stove/fireplace people: What is a reputable, good quality brand for a replacement cat? Best price too? I have an FPX36 and in the market for either a steel or ceramic replacement cat. Thanks...
 
I think there are only a couple of makers for cats, and a couple other places that slap their name on a cat made by the main makers. I'm not sure the details though, maybe an expert will chime in.
When you search for cats for your stove, what comes up?
