Big fireboxes are nice. They are easier to load, and can often accomodate those extra-long pieces that somehow find their way into the woodpile. When choosing your woodstove, however, keep in mind that stoves with large fireboxes tend to produce higher heat output, and easy fueling is a dear price to pay for being cooked out of the house. |

A larger firebox
holds more fuel, and will hold a fire longer
between refuelings. That can be a huge convenience if you occasionally sleep
late or get held up in traffic on the way home from work.
