Some background information on this Copper Clad stove

[Kingpin26]

Hello,
New poster here. I have inherited this Copper Clad stove from my parents and it’s in the basement of their house that I now own. I have a few questions about the stove , I have done a google image search on it and haven’t found any answers.Would anyone have an estimate of the value ? Also the stove is in the basement under the steps . It seen very heavy, if it could be sold could it be disassembled into parts and taken out of the house?

Thanks for the help in advance

Copper Clad is a fairly well known name. Try a basic Google search instead of an image search. The stove looks to be in fairly good condition. If the firebox looks as good as the exterior then the stove could sell in the $1500-$2000 range to the right buyer. But there is the catch. As a general rule, cookstoves sell for around $500 to $1000 when priced for a relatively quick sale. The stove can be disassemble to reduce weight and make it easier to move. It may be best to let the buy do this so that they can document the disassembly for easier reassembly.

If the “stove” next to it is connected to a chimney; Replace that terrible Franklin type Fireplace with this one!

What would be my best option to sell this online . E- Bay ?

It may take listing in multiple venues like eBay, craigslist, and Facebook Marketplace.

IMO I don't think there is a best option; the largest problem will be to find someone willing to take this large stove. Not many folks want an old cook stove.

Of course there are those who want them, but the point is getting your ad in front of their eyes. Hence the "all of the above" advice. The more places you advertise the higher the probability that someone who is interested will see it within a reasonable time.

Marketplace has been pretty good for me the last couple years, for both selling and buying. It's free so listing on it is a no brainer. Ebay might be ok too.

Checked this stove company out on line, kinda a cool history. We grew up with an old Birmingham cook stove from Atlanta stove works, wished I had it today. Was a nice heater, and my Mother cooked many a biscuits/cornbread muffins in it. I cut a lot of "stovewood" back then too, smaller pieces to fit the small firebox on the left side of it. She had the full model too, pie warmers on top and the water tank on the right side. Getting it out of there will be the real challenge, I hope it survives the move, its really a nice piece.
