Dutchwest Federal Convection Stove by Vermont Castings - this name says it all about consolidation of various wood stove companies of the past. But it is a great stove and at the time of purchase was the cleanest wood burning stove on the market (in the U.S. at any rate). It uses a catalytic combustor (smoke burner) - which same has to be replaced about every four to five years - and a refractory chamber through which the smoke is routed before it goes up the chimney. Both the combustor and the refractory unit are very fragile. Newer versions of this stove do not use these accessories and through inlet air design are very similar in their low particulate output. I am thinking about selling this stove next fall and putting in the newer stove. Stay tuned.
p.s. the glass doors stay clean from carbon build-up for a relatively long time due to inlet down drafting air design.
