I personally passed on this unit because of the catilyst system. In the past, I had heard many stories about them in the woodstoves. Other than that, I was really impressed with the unit.

the catalyst system works fine as long as you burn properly seasoned wood.  they add  a bit more efficiency and tests have shown each disk should last 6 years.  theyare fairly cheap to replace as well.
