[QUOTE="Chaparral, post: 3938231, member: 49817"] We are looking at two wood burning stoves for the house. Let us call price and installation and timeline equal as they are very, very close. In no order - Pacific Energy metal/cast iron hybrid. Prettiest, far and away nicer looking however it has porcelain on the cast iron which can be chipped and painted back Has movable privets on top to keep the top metal surface temp down and also provide a cooking surface when moved Appears to have slightly higher BTU rating and slightly better efficiency Limited lifetime warranty Made in Canada Lopi Endeavor Made in USA albeit Washington Large cooking surfaces but very direct heat in front which would severely burn anyone touching it while hot Machine formed and welded for fewer and more consistent weld, less to breakdown with heating cycles 60% fewer grams per hour emissions from similar size burn box which could mean less cleaning of the flue Seems easier to setup and go Seven year warranty Bigger ash tray easier to remove and may make less mess [/QUOTE]
