Excellent Stove. Well constructed. Easy installation.

From start to finish.......a top shelf experience. My stove arrived on time, undamaged and well packed. I checked the bends, welds, overall fitment, etc and was highly impressed. Base was level within 1/64 of an inch! That's amazing construction!! Installed this myself. The instructions and measurements were easy to follow . Once a bed of coals is established, it heats evenly and with good duration - especially after dampening it down at night. The stove drafts well with no blowback, and is so much more efficient and effective than the open hearth fireplace it replaced. We opted for the optional blower/ thermodisc. Well worth the investment and improves performance waaay more than the 2% the literature indicates. (IMHO). Finally, this stove looks elegant and modern when in use.....and "nope" no one paid me for my review.
