Looks like thermostatic air control on the secondary. I've seen a couple videos and it seems to burn nicely. In both they were seeing 9-10 hr burns.

In that second video, the window seems really dirty when they are all done with it. Does that happen with all of the new stoves? Or do you need to clean the glass every day? I assumed the air wash was supposed to keep them clean...

Yeah the window is filthy! You’re right, the glass should stay clean on a decent stove burning dry wood, only needing an occasional wipe off of fly ash.

No wonder they had coals at the end in the video, it was smoldering quite a bit at some point... I also noticed smoke billowing out of the open door at the end which suggests super low draft as this style firebox rarely would spill out like that.

not a very helpful video in my opinion. Nice looking stove though.
 
Ever considered a wood cookstove?

We did think about one, and looked at some options based on other replies to this thread. But I think for the space we will have, we are looking for a small stove that is best for heating, and maybe has a spot to put a griddle on it when we get the urge....
