For those not familiar with my situation, there is another thread going into more detail here. Essentially I ordered a new Mini-A in September but due to a couple months backorder the local dealer offered to install their floor model that had never been fired but was only 2yr old. We agree to that but I quickly found out after they installed it that it is a Mini (non A) mfg in 2008! So for the last 2 months the stove has sat unused waiting for a new stove Mini-A to arrive..
Dealer has finally come back saying they can't get a -A until February and are making the following offers:
-We keep the old Mini from 2008 that is still installed at a discount
-We wait until the new Mini-As arrive in February (but that leaves us heating with 100% oil for the entire winter)
-They have offered us a steep discount on the new Enviro P3 that they actually have in stock. My main concern is this is a brand new stove and I can't find any feedback anywhere online from owners which kind of scares me. On the other hand he P3 is a much nicer looking stove and is worth an extra $1000 and as far as I understand is an upgraded mini.
Thoughts?
