As far as using the cat - they are drop dead simple. If a person can't run one, they ought to stick to pellet stoves or something else.
Good luck!

No problem. The cat dw is very easy to use and low maintenance, not to mention controlable during the shoulder season. But if you are buying new there are so many options! BTW the wife and kids loved it too! I had to sell mine because of a move, new rental has no chimney.neumsky said:Just outa curiousity...Chris...what does 5 boys & a wife have to do with not having a wood stove???

maybe you should talk about facts, and not what you have read. I think crap is a little rude, as there are people that have them and like them. remember I said that they need average intellegence to operate

I really do want to consider my wife tho...and I think this info helps, so I might just get one than. I am noticing that some of you guys don't own one yourself tho...any reason for that? Thanx so much Jeff
