Had an acquaintance pitch this exact stove to me for 100 dollars. It had been sitting outside in the rain and the glass was broken. Been doing the finishing of the paint and getting it set up. My other one was too big for the house. The replacement glass is about 150 dollars. It was manufactured in July of 2023. Not sure if I'll go with that glass or take a piece off a kitchen range and weld a metal guard on the inside. I also have the fan for the six inch black pipe that worked well with the other stove. Looks like I will pass on putting that on. Secondary burn was cool. Thanks for posting. Helped me.
My stove is basically the same design. Almsot identical. Except my air inlet control is opposite of yours. Pulled out its as closed as it can be. Pushed in is wide open. I also opened up the small inlet hole that is on the underside of the firebox in the front of the unit. Not sure if yours is the same. And with new stoves you need to burn a hot fires to cook the paint. With windows open. Not during the night
Inside your stove in the top you will find a board pull forward half way open front and back this will take care of the smoke coming in the room will be better had the same problem with my stove Do this only with no fire hope this helped you also always open damper when opening door They tell you to leave the board to the back in the instructions this will not work thats why it smokes.
You made the comment you might return it if you don't like it but I don't think you can return it after you burn in it. 11-hour burn time is impressive though. They advertised only eight.
Well.... you won't get 11 hours of flames, but with the nice coals left, you will get 11 hours of heating. I'm not sure about the return on wood stoves. Power tools can't be returned, the policy says "any item".
Very nice, thanks for video.
Glad we could help!

Yes. That sounds like the same design.
As for burning at night... you are correct we learned this lesson the hard way. Hopefully others will not make our same mistake. 😁

Thanks. I'll take a look at that.

Is your wood dry?
Yes. Less than 20% moisture. It burns faster now with the wood stove hot and coals. The first slow burn was the first fire inside the house.
Stay away from your big boxes stores for wood stoves they are junk.
Time will tell. I'm happy with this one so far.
Is the air intake hooked up
