Hi Folks
Just for fun, I'm researching tiny, friendly stoves.

That's what piqued my interest. I really like those stoves--they are well built, tiny, pretty to me, and even EPA compliant.
That got me curious if there are any other stoves like that. Personally I'd prefer the looks of a cast iron or stone stove that burns well and easily, and a nice flame display. And EPA compliance would be nice, just because. I wouldn't want a lot of heat output, but a long burn would be nice, along with minimal clearance requirements.
Contradictory as it is, it would also be nice if the stove would take 16" splits, since that's the wood I have. I know the last kind of contradicts the whole thing, so it's not a firm requirement, but it would be nice.
My knowledge of stove brands and models is pretty limited, but I nosed around the sites of the brands I've noticed folks talk about here, and the best matches I've come up with are the Marine Stove's Dan mentioned, along with the Morso 1440:

Both those choices seem to meet my criteria, except for they take 12" logs, which isn't a show stopper.
Other tiny stoves didn't have good reviews, etc.
The Hearthstone Tribute is neat too, but maybe a bit bigger than I'd want.
Any comments on these stoves, and suggestions for others?
Happy New Year, and happy burning to all!
