Only really have a couple of small complaints about this stove. I bought it with the Flashing kit and tripple wall extra pipe for safety and to seal out the weather. All in all it is made well, has a good size firebox, seems to draw pretty good too. I’ve used it now since 2022 and would probably try a different one for the next purchase and here is why. With the removable “cooking” port on top it makes it pretty tough to have a tight seal on the stove you can actually see in space in between the removable plate into the fire box allowing some smoke to seep through, although it isn’t a lot of smoke and it is intermittent depending on how far back your fire is burning, it’s still enough to notice. I would love this stove and give it 5 stars if it didn’t have the removable cooking plate and had a baffle in it allowing the wood to burn longer and possibly distribute the heat better along the stove, I tend to make my fire farther back into the box due to this happening and with that I can get red pipes easier as the flames are closer to them and the draw. Sturdy, beautiful stove in all but for my liking I could do without the removable plate as I do not remove it to cook anyway. Cooks fine with it on.
