I am glad a end is in sight. although not a good end. I would be filing a complaint with both places again against Harman. It is retarded that you are going to have to put out another $450 to correct a problem with their stove. I would not be satisfied with any resolution that would have me paying anything to repair the stove. You bought it from a Harman dealer and the Harman stove company should make it right. A BBB complaint against Harman would be the way I would go. Company's don't want a BBB complaint against them and will do most anything to make it go away. You have been put through the ringer and been without heat for way to long. It is not your fault that the next nearest dealer, and their service company, is so far away.
