    Maybe throw a few blocks under the stove so you don’t have to constantly bend down so low?

    Adding blocks under to raise it up in a basement or non "pretty" install is a big helper. Function over form, in this case

    It's actually aluminized bubble wrap. Just a little bit more insulation for the wall. And the aluminum side has a reflective quality to it.

    That is, if you drink.....or smoke cigars.....or sit and relax with yer feet up! :rofl: :lol:

    How is this jewel working out ? I am guessing it’s great since there haven’t been any follow ups talking about it being a turd.

    You'd definitely want to be wearing slippahs hanging out down there with the concrete floor.

    What kind of burn time are you getting from that dro-let?

    It's advertised as having a 10 hour burn time. Yesterday, after 24 hours I still had a few hot coals at the bottom of the ash pile. It even easy to re-light a fire after 12 hours
