Likes: Very nicely built unit. The glass remains extremely clean. Very easy to maintain secondary burn. Incredible amount of heat generated, and I'm not using the optional fan (dealer stated that they're noisy and not needed). Overnight burns (7+ hours) have been attained using birch and aspen. Very easy to regulate fire with flue and air dampers.


Dislikes: It uses 8" solid pack chimney which is a little pricey.


Comments: One of my few purchases where my expectations were exceeded.
