    Wanted to sell my Napoleon and replace with something less picky, but then we have plans to perhaps move to FL next year, so decided to put up one more season with the Napoleon...:hair::hair:

    I was looking at the reviews and it seems like the Therma Glo have better heat than Stove Chows?

    Hi Geek
    I see you still have your Napoleon. Good stove, but for me, too picky. Also not enough heat. I switched over to the Harman p68. Not fussy, heats the house just fine. Automatic, and very very easy to clean. So many positives about this stove. I gave my Napoleon to my oldest son. He loves it. Who wouldn't for free!
    Welcome to FHC. Nice group of men and woman here. Fun loving and no condescending politics. This site has grown a lot in two years. I am seeing you are #2903. I'm shown as #11.
    We had a lot of good buddy s who have yet to find their way here. We have also made a lot of new friends who never were on another forum. So come back often, sit a spell. Look around. I think you will like what you see.

    Welcome Geek!!! I think based on past experience, I would probably go with the Chow's. Most other people's reports on the Therma-Glo didn't seem that great. Maybe grab a couple bags to try before pulling the trigger.

    Were you able to get any Platinum's(silver bag) from BT?? At only $11 more a ton, Might be a better option. ;)

    Of coarse oil is pretty cheap too! :whistle:
