We had put this stove in our workshop as an alternative fuel source because of the rising propane costs for heating. It has worked out great and lowered our costs tremendously. We also purchased the Hopper Extension so we could get a longer run time. Next year we will purchase another one for our house to replace our traditional wood-burning stove that wood prices have more than doubled over the last year. The only drawback for some customers would be is that you need a power source to run it but we are covered because we have a solar with battery back up. Great product. Thanks
