Anyone have experience with a Hearthstone I stove?

    My dad fell in love with my Woodstock Soapstone stove and now wants a Soapstone stove of his own.

    Found a Hearthstone I stove that looks to be in good condition. Based on my research, this stove could have been built anywhere between 1990-1998? Seems great shape for being as old as it is. Still trying to get better pictures but trying to get an idea of how this stove works.

    Right cheap Home Depot barrel style stove (No idea of the type) that burns would like it's going out of style. I think this would be a good pickup for him, but want to make sure before they make a 5 hour drive to get it.

    Guessing this isn't a Cat stove (although it seems like there MIGHT be a model that does have a cat? How would you know?)

    Any information you guys could give me would be awesome!

    Thanks!

    Model 1 are not cat stoves oh, some of the later ones had burn tubes over the top. Do you know how big the model ones are??? My great aunts was at least a 4.25 cu ft Firebox. Easily a 12 hour burn time. Check metal parts as soapstone does not wear much..

    Here are some pictures. The seller is saying its only 4-5 years old, but from what I can tell, it LOOKS like a Hearthstone I, so I am not sure.
