I just ordered a new fireview while it is on sale. I am selling my house and in the negotiations my VC Encore is staying. Contrary to what everyone says about the VC it has been a workhorse and has served me very well.
The soapstone stoves have always interested me and I figure this is prime time to check them out. I will be moving to a small cottage in the country and it is 1100sqft. Cathedral ceiling in main room, original log room is fairly insulated and the enclosed porch has been made into a year round room but is always cool in winter. There is a Resolute Acclaim in the cottage now and I know it struggles for long burn times when temps hit the 20's. The long burn times and even heat is what pushed me to the fireview.
Once I get it installed I will take pics and try to post them. I just cant wait to get out of the city and back to the country where I came from.
