I was afraid of that. I dont have very good lighting in the room it is in so this will have to do for now until I get home from work prior to dark....

I had just vaccumed it out really good tonight when I got home too but forgot to clean the glass before starting it back up. You can see the marks on the glass where I ran the shop vac tool across it.
 
Just a quick note about my $100 stove. Now that its nearly the end of the heating season (hopefully) here in Ohio I feel comfortable bragging about it.....I only burned approximately 2 tons of pellets this winter in this stove. Thats only $400 total and we like it nice and toasty (75+) in the house. I didnt even crank up the FOB this winter since this stove heats the entire house. I would say $100 was quite a steal on the 5500XL (:
 
WHY CAN'T I EVER WALK INTO A FIND LIKE THIS???? Tell you what, I'll give you $200 for it, no questions asked. Deal????? %-P

I got $300 here.... And I live right around the corner from you. (Could actually be 4 hrs depending on where you live in Ohio)
 
You guys are funny. I know its not the best stove in the world but man it sure heats my little place cheap. The price of pellets around here helps alot too. They havent went above $190/ton all year and Menards had the somersets for $160-175/ton off and on all winter.
 
just an update on my $100 stove. I hit the ON button a couple nites ago when it got down in the low 40's and she lit up like a Christmas tree just like she should :) I was afraid I would be having trouble with the igniter like alot of others have.
