Up in the air between the Enviro Cabello 1200 (wife likes flush mount, Cabello 1700 is too big) and the Boston 1700 (my preference). Previously considered a Regency HI400 and PE T5.
I'm in a ~2400 sq ft side split that has good insulation, approx 1800 sq ft would be heated by the insert.
I feel very comfortable with my experienced installer/sweep who says we may feel as if we are getting cooked out of our main living space by the 1700, but that entire floor and room is actually quite cold from being on slab. He doesn't want us to feel stuck with a stove that is too big. I'm concerned the 1200 may be too small.
Go bigger or go smaller?
