   Only get it if it is free, I am the poster who describes the Canadian built   
   Timberline stove. After almost 30 years of use, my house insurance company   
   wanted a Certificate that it met current regulations. Which it did not. So I   
   had to replace it. I bought a Jotul stove. It lights easier than the   
   Timberline, burns better even with only one log in it (the Timberline   
   refused to burn unless there were two logs almost touching), and uses about   
   half the amount of wood that the Timberline used to use for the same heat.   
   Things have improved in wood burning. I can't even give the old stove away,   
   so we are going to install it on the patio as an outdoor fireplace.
