Question:

My name is Dan Frank and I have a couple questions. My dad is looking for a new wood stove for our house. He was looking for magazines that gave ratings to the best wood stoves and/or reviews of the best ones, but he couldn't find any. He is also looking for a wood stove with 88,000 BTU's or about that. I was wondering if you could tell me or give me a link for ratings or reviews of the top 5 or 6 wood stoves. Thank you for your time.



Answer:

Wood stove peak ratings are highly inaccurate and have little to do with what the stove is putting out on an hourly basis. However, I will assume you are looking for a larger size unit. The Jotul Firelight, HearthStone Mansfield and Avalon (larger model) are just three of the larger stoves available at the manufacturers links at https://www.hearth.com/prod.html
