We replaced our freestanding stove with a ci2700 due to safety reasons. We have had the stove 13 months and it has not performed AT ALL as stated. Our home is only 1200 sqft, states it will warm up to a 2600 sqft home, and with mild weather, we may be able to get the home up to 70 degrees where with the free standing stove it was 80 and above degrees. Burn time is stated to be up to 14 hrs. We are feeding it every 1.5 hrs to be sure it's burning hot enough. At night if it goes unattended for too long, it's at least 30 mins to get it going again along with the house filling with smoke. We have gone through double the wood and we have had a very mild New England winter so far. When it's really cold, our furnace kicks on cause the stove can't heat as it's stated to do so. We use oak wood that has been dried for 2 years, and we've been burning for over 20 years with no issue; till now. This stove is incredibly disappointing and completely inefficient. I will never recommend this stove.
