Hi everyone,
New member here. I just purchased and installed the Napoleon 1400C. Just getting it broke in. We have no complaints so far. Once you get a good coal bed, it burns really nice. We almost went with the 1100C, but I am glad this one came along, as some posts I read here earlier gave rave reviews of the stove, they just wished for a larger firebox. We are heating nearly 1600 sq feet. The 1100C would have probably been fine, but I thought the flexibility of the larger box was better. Also, the 1400C has a lid to expose the top of the firebox for cooking if needed. I am also happy with the look of cast iron. It seemed like a good compromise between looks, efficiency and quality for the price. I looked hard at others too, by Pacifica and Jotul. Also, as an added bonus, Napoleon included the blower for free. I posted some pics. Enjoy.
