American Energy Systems Magnum Countryside
I have the Magnum Countryside, this stove is wonderful, I live in an older drafty house and this stove set at 2 keeps it more than warm ... it is hot, last week it was 9 degrees outside, I ran the stove on 3 in the evenings then turned it to 2 for overnight and daytime when everyone was gone, it kept the house at 75 degrees. I burn a mixture of corn and pellets and use the sturr. I have NO clinkers and NO problems so far.. the sturr fingers look to be getting a thick coating on them but they still work fine. I can say nothing negative about this stove, I LOVE it.
