Jotul is a very good stove Larry. Russo is a real work horse also but for larger spaces. Russo's are not as efficient/air tight as Jotuls'. I have a pro-former coal wood stove upstairs that I hope to replce with Jotul or Vermont Castings in the next year or so. Pro Former will then be put in cellar to be used when the temp really gets low. I have been burning wood for twenty-five years. Buy log length wood then cut and split myself. It is not as maintainance free like pellets or corn but its about a third of the cost of pellets. When you can score a Jotul for free you've had a good day.
