I bought the hampton insert HI300. You can find them at hampton-fire.com Its really on what you want to spend and the look. Mine is cast enamel for the face. Others are plate steel. Steel can be repainted to a different color. As for the quote isn't it "eye of the beer holder???"

Well, I'm partial to the Osburn. Best fire view in the business, and since that's 99% of what your looking at with an insert...

I also like the Hearthstone, Hampton, and Lopi's. If I didn't buy an Osburn 1800i, I'd have a Lopi Revere.

I know people who have had Lopi's for a lot of years, and they are performing well after 10 years

I burn ~ 5 cords /yr. in it.

There are colder places, but Winnipeg is the coldest city over 500,000.

We heat a 1000 sq. ft. bungalow from the basement, so I guess you could say 2000 sq.ft.
With the fan system I installed, the basement is only a couple of degrees warmer than the main floor.
This takes care of most of our heating needs, electric baseboard heaters take care of the rest.
