It's one of those new EPA regulated secondary burn system set up deals that produces very little smoke at temp and gets the most out of the burn as far as heat transfer to the house. I can load it up with seasoned rounds at around 10pm and have heat all night with a good enough bed of coals to get going right back to speed in the morning.
I'm pretty impressed by the efficiency of the secondary burn setup too. About a dozen regular sized splits and a few rounds will get us through the night and into the AM no problem, with very little tending needed as well.
It will actually run you the hell out of the living room if you get it burning too hot. Out house isn't huge and the size stove we got was a little on the bigger than needed than the not enough range.
I know a couple folks that do firewood on the side so I gets my stash for the winter delivered and stacked too. All I gotta do is get it in the house after that.
hell, for a few more bucks they'll probably come over and load it for ya as well...lol
