Not the stove for me, i got it to boil water. After a couple years burning good dry hard wood correctly I have never gotten a kettle to boil. I saw an obadiahs video showing the stove top at 500F. I cant get mine over 350F. Otherwise good stove. I can sustain the oven at 350F but you would need amazing draft to make this stove work right and i just cant get it.
