Hello,
I bought this stove for about 100 dollars when I bought my house and hooked it up. It heats my house very well and holds a decent overnight burn. I am really tempted to buy the englander 30 from overstock stoves.com for 980 dollars since this is the last year they have the tax credits. I am thinking there are a couple advantages. One is I would actually like to see the fire with a glass door. Another is the three screw air controls are incredibly annoying to adjust. Also, how much more efficient is the Englander going to be since it is an EPA stove. I measured this firebox it is something like 23 inches by 14 inches by 12 inches something close to 3 cubic feet I am guessing. Does anyone know about this stove? It is a hunstman by Atlanta Stove works, if you can see the pics it looks like they may have tried to make some more efficient burns with the secondary part on top, not really sure. Also, I live in a neighborhood with new neighbors and while my chimney and everything is up to code, I would like to burn more cleanly to not tick them off. Also, I cannot really afford more than the 30, thanks.
