i was looking at the wood stove from princess auto a while back and for $100 it seemed like a great deal then recently i went back and was surprized to find the price jumped up to $150 even though they told me the $100 was the regular price. the one i was looking at looked like a cylinder laying horizontal with a flat top area for cooking. the cooking area folded down to be somewhat compact. this is the one i looked at and liked but didnt like the sudden price change.

Default cast iron..

i beleive hes looking for a cast stove not a tin one. my experience with the above listed stoves is that for what they are worth they definatly arent much of a stove. check out alaska tent and tarp, or cylinderstoves.com. if your gonna spend 150$ on a wood stove, may as well spend a bit more and get one that will last you a life time.

I ordered mine from Home Hardware. Its plain-jane rectanglular. Perfect for cooking on and plenty warm for a big shack. Just have to make sure the pipe is out of the wind or it blows back inside. The only negative point about it is that we have to keep the door open a crack as it doesnt get near enough air through the tiny vents on the door. Im happy with it though.

Wood is by far a superior heat for this, propane carries a lot of moisture from it too, nice thing about the stove is you have the option to cook on it, to keep a kettle on, as well as dry some clothing all without altering the heat source, imo cannot replace the heat etc of wood. I have a "tin" heater and donlike it, its too hot and can't carry a coal for long thru the night. I am also interested in cast options.
