My wife helps stack wood and will start and keep stove going. The only stove related thing she will not do is load the weekly supply wood rack, clean the ash or clean the liner. She's into it for the heat, not the joy of owning a wood stove

I on the other hand like the house very warm around 80 is just perfect. He does not like the mess from the wood or the ash. I love the stove and would never live in a house without one.
I love the heat, the flames, the wood all of it. Of course I grew up with a father who cut his own wood and always had a fire going and my husband grew up with parents who never touched a piece of wood in their lives.

How all did you sell your wife on the woodstove idea?
The current impasse is I did the math on basement VS living room install and abandoned the basement idea. However my wife refuses to have "bugs, ash and soot" in the living room.
