It is soapstone so it really holds the heat and is great to burn 24/7. You see the fire thru the glass and the glass stays nice and clean. It takes longer to heat up than a steel or cast iron stove but once it's warmed up it lasts much longer. I load it up before I go to bed (around 11:00 PM) and in the morning (9 or 10 AM) I just load regular sized splits and it starts up again. No need for kindling since the ashes are still so hot. It heats my 1600 sq ft house with no problem and no oil. You can't buy these in a store, you must go directly to the manufacturer. It seems to use about a third less wood than my previous woodstove. Can you tell I really like it?

Looks like a nice stove but it's tiny and would not be enough to heat my house. Please report back in March once you've had all winter to try it. We really haven't had extended cold yet.
