    Lehmans does have a lot of stuff, but very pricey.
    And true, you get what you pay for.........Just be sure to shop around.

    Only if you catch it and care about it. Sounds like Hunter does.

    I do try, but I am sure some syntax, punctuation and spelling errors get though on my posts.

    That Chubby stove does have some very good qualities.....I kind of had a bit of a sticker shock though.....I will be needing an extra stove for the garage workshop up at the cabin. I had a wood pellet stove there but really did not like it, noisy, only one shop near me had the pellets. I just need a small, simple stove to take the edge off the chill in the garage. I have enough wood scraps from the furniture making to keep it going all year. Very hard to get coal where I am at in NW PA, Crossingville / Edinboro area for a reasonable price. My fire wood is basically free, already there and I have enough expendable woods on the land to last more than 3 lifetimes.

    Sticker shock, yes but compared to the new ones. Must be nice to have three lifetimes of wood for free! Although I wouldn't want to live where that is!

    The Wife and I have been eyeballing one of these for a couple of years. Not cheap, but they work well, and You can cook with them. I like the soapstone, helps keep the house a bit warmer after the fire goes out in the night. You can also get a water back for them. Either set up a radiator in another room and circulate warm water to it. Or use for hot water in the house.

    Gosh, instead of paying that kind of money for a new wood stove why don't you invest in an original? You'll have a larger cooking surface and invest a lot less money in the process.

    Because I don't have the room for one. If I did, that would be my first choice. I learned to cook on an old Glenwood. Kind of surprised my Wife before we got married. I cooked her an entire Thanksgiving Dinner on the one I had at my old Cabin. Tried like heck to take that stove before I sold the place, but the purchaser insisted on the stove or no sale. Needed the money for my Grandparent's doctors bills, so it went in the sale.

    This one is the stove top, and low oven combined, but the one I have has the hot water service copper piped through the fire box.
