i'm sure it's a good stove, but i placed my chimney pipes in the corner of the house, and had to use offset pipes instead of straight through.....these caused some resistance to the flow, and creosote collected in the pipes, and in the initial burn, they often catch fire, which smells bad and soot blows out from the pipe joints...so when they start burning, i turn down the thermostat or draft ...Overall Performance:

Well, I read the reviews and har to believe so much disapointment. After 14 yrs of burning wood here in Alaska with a Napolean I switched to a Blaze King Princess. Wow, can't believe I waited so long. Not sure about the complaints, but mine is amazing. I burn spruce and it still does fantastic. at 15-25 fahrenheit it will easily burn for 12 hrs on medium setting and that is not even packed ...Overall Performance:

have used stove for 3 winters. overall its a good stove but here are the cons. no ash pan, getting ashes out is areal mess.i burn hickory.on a cold 10 degree night 8 hours is the burn time. after 3 days of burning you cant get enough wood in to get 8 hours. you constantly need to take out hot coals in order to get more wood in. the blower is a joke.i have to put a fan in front to get the heat ...Overall Performance:

Bought the damn thing according to reviews. The first stove rusted out in under one year. I mean like really rusted out. The warranty...forget it.Blaze King told me that it was an environmental issue...like I was using it under water. Likely cause was Blaze King using recyled metal. They wouldn't replace it. But Home Hardware did replace it at their cost and the new stove exhibits no signs of ...Overall Performance:

I have owned the Princess model for 5 years now and prior to the Princess went through 5 other brands of free standing stoves. The amount of heat per cord of wood, (birch, white ash, maple) is far more than any other brand stoves. I live on an island in northern Minnesota where -20* f is not uncommon in the winter.

Great stove, but for whatever reason after a year of good service suddenly the lever for the door lock hates to rotate, it takes most of my strenght to unlock and then relock it, pesky.

I have used wood stoves my whole life... the Blaze King Princess may not win the miss America contest for looks, but is it by far, the best wood stove I have ever used. Fill it full of wood, damper it down and it runs for 14 hours. This stove is my PRIMARY heat source for my house and we use three (count em... "3") cords of wood for an entire winter.

My Blaze kings smokes A LOT when trying to light a new fire or when getting it going again after a long day (8 - 10) hours away from home. I have read the manual and I think I'm doing things correctly but it smokes up my entire house until it is completely flame filled and producing a lot of heat! It is only 1 1/2 years old with brand new 6 inch pipe in May 2013. I just started it yesterday for ...Overall Performance:

either your wood isnt seasoned or your thermostat isnt working correctly. let it heat up real good before you engage cat and then adjust thermostat in small increments. These stoves are hard to figure out. Refer to manuel.Once you understand the operation there is nothing better.30 years of burning and I had to retrain myself when I got this one.Overall Performance:

This is a creosote monster. You can not turn this stove below 2 or it will creosote up. Yes, it has a longer burn time than some other stoves but it also burns more wood than other stoves. Going back to the Avalon Olympic. It only produced soot...no creosote. Besides, I do not have the time to babysit the stove for 45 minutes to get it up to the active range so i can close the bypass damper.Overall Performance:

Most expensive stove I've ever bought but well worth every penny! I live in interior Alaska and heat only with wood even at 40-50 below. Only problem is that when cleaning the chimney in the fall, the soot falls into the secondary combustion chamber which necessitates removing the catalytic converter (not hard) and getting the wifes skinny hands inside to clean it out.

from a chimney sweeps perspective this is a great stove, IF you take care of it. the catylist is fragile like they all are, and many people pull them out and "clean " them all the time, which the manufaqcturer does not reccomend. never run any kind of brush thru it, replace the little gasket around the catylist, and keep the flame guard in place, and it will serve you well. if you wonder if your ...Overall Performance:

Four years ago upon retiring to the west slope, Northern Sierra Nevada, we bought our last Lopi, the Endeavor. It did not live up to its former glory and we started shopping a new stove. It consumed 4-1/2 cords of wood during the winter, never heated well, and made mountains of ash. (we ...Overall Performance:
