Country Flame Harvester

on Mar 28, 2009
- UpDate - All is well, Control Panel was bad and in a comedy of errors the tech mistakenly replaced my good motor with a defunct used one. New control panel came in, motor exchanged and we are burning corn again, warm and toasty.

- Auger motor on my Harvester also went out. I am disappointed in the stove and in the company I bought it from. After 6 weeks, I don't have the part I need and the people at Fireplaces Unlimited in Lubbock, TX won't return my calls.
