Navajo Stove Project: Robert Owen Interview

This is a brief video interview with Navajo Beta tester Robert Owen from mid March, 2018. Robert is one of our Navajo Stove beta testers whose stove was installed this January, 2018. We also posted on his installation before (on our blog). It’s a little bit unclear in the video, but in the six weeks between his installation and this interview he saved two truckloads of wood, which means his fuel consumption was cut in half. This is what we like to hear. He also comments that the heat is more even, and his indoor air quality is better: “I can breathe.” We especially like his comment “I feel like the stove found me.”
Like all of our beta testers, Robert is a genuinely kind and considerate person, and we like him a lot. He has a great family. We keep in touch by phone and text message. When we were at the airport in March, waiting to board a plane to come back from NM, we received a text message from Robert asking us to text him when the plane landed in Boston so he would know we were home safe.

Wow the paint didn't last that long on the stove.

The stove is still fully painted (I was there in person). It does show signs of use, and most of what you see is ash marks on the front of the stove.

Okay I bumped the video resolution up and it looks better.
The lighting/angle probably isn't helping.
Looks grey/red new...and blue/red used.
