Pete, there is a non-TL version of the Rangeley, the F 55 Carrabasset. Without the TL mechanism, the firebox is taller. Holds more wood.

Yup it's so hard trying to choose between all the amazing stoves.
I was trying to decide so much that I was sticking my head in the stoves and having
them move them around so I could see them from every angle.
My sales lady was starting to loose her mind and asked if I wanted time alone with the stoves
to interview them hahahh. We are set for sure this time my wife
will make sure as I asked her to tell me NO LOL

Is the firebox taller and is the stove as tall as the Rangeley? Because the 2ndaries seem to be the same height as ours.

We heat 1300 sq ft poorly insulated 1800 built 2 story house.We ran the stove at 400 during 0 °F weather and ran at 300 the rest of the year.You'll have plenty of heat.I believe they list the Oslo and Rangeley heating 2000 sg ft.

Bub381, if you are asking about the F 55 firebox, I was assuming that the lncreased capacity comes in the form of height after deleting the TL. . .maybe a Jotul guy can tell us for sure. Looks like the overall dimensions for the F 55 are 1" wider and 3" deeper. Both are 30" tall. (broken link removed to http://www.jotul.com/en-US/wwwjotulus/Main-menu/Products/Wood/Wood-stoves/Jotul-F-55/)
I'm now holding off on congratulating you for buying Stove Brand ___________ (fill in the blank) . . . until I see an actual photo of the stove hooked up in your house.

That makes sense Jake
lol I will post it this weekend I hope ;-) I am very impressed with all the technology in new stoves when I grew up we had a steal box boiler that had to be fed logs constantly. Now I look and every brand has a ridiculously awesome advantage over the other brand so now choosing is based on what advantage you would prefer more lol. Its like hell because we find the one and we are set then somebody says did you see___________ Stove and I go damn!! lolPete
Come to think of it maybe we should melt down all the choices and then make a stove out of the molten metal and have a super stove to replace it !! :lol: :lol: :lol: I hate researching things lol

No they are the same dimensions on the outside.They list the 55 as 27" deep and the 50 24" but with the ashlip the 50 is 27 5/8 so thinking they were measured using the lip on 55 and without the lip on the 50.They're both 27 1/4 wide,30 5/8 high 27 5/8 (lip inc) deep.

Most people stayed at the Baymont Inn less than 1/2 mile from Woodstock (WS).. If virtual Bart could make it then so can you! I wear my Hearth.com hat often and the WS T-shirt is very nice too! Craig supplied some good draft beer and hard cider too and Pen guzzled most of it lol along with Yeungling beer from Pa.
