again im reseaching i got likes and not likes but im looking for a person that has one , just like legend owbs something else i found ..

[tulenutn2o]

Again, I would probably look in the Shaver thread? Contact the company for references. Get a list of dealers from the company, etc. Contact the Better Business Bureau where they are located. That's about all I can think of at the moment. One thing to remember, companies are not going to send you to an unhappy customer.

I have also been researching the earth owb, and am very interested in it. Would really like to find someone who has one though.

I have one.  Just got it at the end of last year .  Went and picked it up where it was made.  I'm new to all this so I really can't compare it to others since this is the first one I've owned.  If you have specific questions that I can answer I'll try to help.

Found this video.  Maybe it will help in the decision making process.  Does this stove have a round or square/rectangular fire box?   I can't tell by the video.  It looks like it is circular at the back but square on the sides.  Maybe it is just my poor vision.

Good video, nice looking stove

Oldsamdog, just wondering how you like it, anything you don't like? Which model did you get, how much are you heating with it, did you hook it up yourself. Thanks for any help

I have the mountain man 500. The burn chamber is round with the lower portion housing the ash grates.  It has done fine for me.  I'm just heating a mobile home a little under 1000 feet right now.  I used a 12x12 heat exchanger that I put in the duckwork because I didn't want to mess with lifting up the furnace since my system is temporary and hope to be pulling it soon for the new house I'm building.  It heats up quick and holds temperature well.  Yesterday I shutdown the pump and blower in the morning and around 12 hours later turned it on and had only lost one degree.  I bought it as a refurb from the factory and there was a few bugs that I had to fix but nothing I couldn't handle.  The people at there shop were helpful.  I picked the unit up myself and installed it myself.  I made the mistake of trying to feed two lines of one inch pex pipe with insulation through a four inch pvc pipe in cold weather.  Not that easy to do and I don't think it is that efficient.  The factory or shop is located way out in the country and a little hard to find.  I don't think they have been in business that long but when I was there they appeared to have several orders.  As of now I don't regret buying it.  It has saved me a lot of money on propane and when I move I will use it for hot water as well.

Thanks for the info. just wanted to hear from someone that had one. I am probably gonna get the woodsman 405 here in the next couple of months. Do wish I lived close to the factory, but I do have a dealer close. Keep us posted if any problems arise
