Please list inserts that extend onto hearth for more radiant heat

Napoleon 1402. That's what I have. Very happy with it. Also think that the PE inserts stick out some as well

I notice Napoleons are not necessarily available just through dealers as many of the others are, and can be priced online kind of like the hardware store kind can. This looks like a nice stove, is this a good price for it as far as you can tell too?

I can't figure out what is up with the clearances very easily from their manual online. It doesn't need a hearth extension in front?

I am looking at some "hardware store" stoves, century, Englander, etc. But it doesn't look like many of them have inserts that actually stick out like all of these here listed. Napoleon and Osburn do, however. Haven't seen much on here from Osburn owners though so I will have to do some searching!

We have a free standing Osburn and it puts out nice even heat. It is noisy but only stove we have had so anything might seem noisy sitting next to the TV!

The Buck 91 sticks out 10 inches onto the hearth so much so that I have to make an extension for it.

this has been the object of my search as well. I have a very old Arrow wood insert and wanted to upgrade to an insert that could be used to cook on or keep a kettle on. I found the Lennox Country Performer insert and i think it will work the way i want. I'll let you know when it's installed in next week or so.

Liked the buck 91 and there's even a very nice close to new one for sale with a good price on CL near me, but sadly it's too much stove for my little house - there were clearance issues but more than that it is just a bigger heater than I think we can handle in our house! Nice stove though.

Let us know! I think Lennox bought some other well known brand, but I can't remember which one it was, maybe somebody here remembers! Is it Country? (in the name, duh!)...
I settled on a used Englander 24 JC, which I think will work out just fine too! When I finally get her up and going I am sure I will be coming in with some updates too.

Inserts don't put a ton of heat unless the blower's going. I can cook on mine (lopi freedom) but ony a small pan will fit, and there's a bypass lever in the middle of the "cooktop".
