I have a model 1975 flexburn defiant that I bought 2 years ago and it does not really convect heat out into the room.
I previously had a model 1910 defiant that I bought in 2001 and it heated very well. It was 75 degrees in my house at all times. With this new flexburn it doesn't even come close...
I was thinking of changing out the stove. Has anyone else had this same issue?
