My PE dealer is the only one for about 200 miles, but he can get you a stove in 3 days, not too shabby in my book. I have only had my PE stove for a very short time but I can say I am very happy with this. The large firebox, good long burn, stay clean and clear glass (unlike my Avalon, very dissapointed with that glass......), and large ash pan. The only thing I am a little worried about is the blower so far, very strong but it is vibrating and I don't think it is from attaching it to the stove, must be something inside the blower unit itself. Either way it is not acceptable and I will be returning it shortly. Otherwise the stove rocks!
Once again I can only compare my PE to my Avalon (now sold) and Quad 5100 (in my Living Room). Both of these stove were good but I am still giving the advantage to the PE Summit. To boot, I am short 3 to 4 feet of Class A chimney pipe recommended by PE and it still burns great (still planning on buying that additional 3 feet and brace).
