Went in to our local PE dealer to buy a stove top thermometer, and fell in love with the T6. Are they really worth the money? Was going to use our old Heritage until we could afford a cook stove (stove is in kitchen naturally), but the salesman talked me out of it on the logic that we were using the stove primarily as a heat source not for cooking. The 12 hour burn times and it's diet suppressant like appetite for firewood really sold me. How suitable are the T6's for cooking on, and are they really that easy on wood. Unless someone can talk me out of it, I am going to order one next week with a blower. Just to stir things up...I will be keeping my key damper!
