Like any owf you should look at firebox condition.
Is there heavy creosote buildup in firebox?
Is there any heavy corrosion due to poor maintenance or burning practices?
Check to see if damper in door opens freely.
Door condition.
If looks clean and well maintained, could be a great buy.
Good luck!
