If you could replace your stove what would you replace with?

I'm liking our Liberty more every day. The huge glass in front is one of the reasons. I really wanted to be able to watch the fire cause stove's in the basement... there's not much I wanna look at down there, just... wood burnin'...

We found a good local dealer too.

 

I had a Lopi Endeavor before my Blaze King. I looked at the Liberty but I didn't like the firebox design. I wanted a square firebox for n/s loading which can't be done with normal length wood(16-18 inches) with the Liberty.

 

The house I rent was built for a wood cookstove, long gone. Wish I could get one of these:

We recently installed a hydronic woodstove in a customer's house and she hasn't heard her propane boiler kick on since. If she's home to feed the fire, the wood is heating the space, the baseboard to the far rooms, and the domestic hot water too. Her house is recently built, so it is hardly a chore to keep it comfortable. The design she bought is a bit too Euro for me, but what a cool idea. In my place, it would take the 75k BTU cookstove model, I think, but man would it be useful! They're spendy, no doubt.
