I was impressed with the quality of the metal and the parts in general. It was easy to install and once you’re ready to camp with it you can fold up the flues and put them in the stove body. Also I recommend burning some papers or cardboard when you first get it just to burn out any kind of chemicals used in manufacturing. I can’t wait to really put it to the test on a backpacking trip

I thought this was a pretty good deal. I'va had the stove now for 3 months. I'll sum up my experience with Pro's and Con's. My stove did not come with all the screws required to assemble, requiring a trip to the hardware store. If I had it to do over, I would pay attention to the chimney design, and pay a little more for a stove that would weather better than this one has. Pro's * Small foot print * easy to assemble (if you get all the parts) * Easy to light * Throws off great heat, escpecially if you have a fan to sit on top Con's * Chimney assembly leaks creosote all over as result of very poor design. * Completely rusted even though I followed the instructions meticuliously to cure the paint * If you close the door all the way, it will starve the fire. The vent holes on the door are too small or there are not enough of them to keep the fire lit with the door closed and sealed. You need to keep it open a crack at a minimum. * The seal on the door is poorly applied and has gaps I would consider to be unsafe if you are using inside a tent.Read full review

If I made any changes to this, it would be to have a 6 inch flange on it and omit the stovepipe. The pipe is odd sized and fits upside down. Which is probably ok for a temporary tent setup but for a permanent stove, it needed a regular chimney setup. The door seal will need to be redone, and it could benefit from adding a baffle plate. But for the price, this stove is amazing and really throws the heat. I am impressed with it for 1/4 the price of another stove. I would recommend it. Especially for people using it in a canvas wall tent or for a shop. The little nitpicks are minimal issue and easily resolved. It's well worth it. Make sure you burn it hot outside before brining it in to heat anything because the paint really does need to burn off.

The advertised use of the stove isn’t very practical here in the US. When it’s cold enough to need a wood burning stove outside is not where people usually want to sit. But with some modifications the little stove lends itself to work well in a small tent as long as there is stove pipe outlet. It needs a door seal and longer legs to get it up from combustables underneath. It could also use a damper. I modified mine to use in a small wall tent for winter hunting.

It does the trick on keeping you warm, it'll cook food, has a damper in the front to regulate Heat. I'm actually happy the paint Burns off in a short amount of time, because I can put my steaks right on top of the grill,which is a flat surface. Portable and will fit inside of a 90 gallon backpack. Potatoes can go directly inside the oven, with the burning wood, wrapped up in aluminum foil. My seller was a dropshipper, and he only made approximately $10, so he must be moving a lot of them to stay in business. Thanks eBay!!!

Stove is good quality. Chimney pipes are also excellent quality. Make sure you burn a hot fire in it outside the first couple times to burn off all the toxic oil and paints. Works great in my deer hunting stand.

Door gasket fall out after five hours of use and this is not one time used. I prefer wider size than too deep. It's hard too keep wood burning in the back. I have to keep the door a little open because not enough air. To away from smoke too much need completely dry wood. Stove need at least three hours of cure. I modified this Stove for outdoor tea house in the winter using 4-INX24-IN ALUMINUM PIPE and 4-IN ELBOW 90-DEG 26-GA no problem with the smoke back in. Overall this is good buy for me and will last a while.

For its size it made of a pretty heavy gage steel, the pipe is also nice and thick. Got it to heat my wood shop and I expect this will give me years of service. I plan on putting some fire brick in it also just to extend its life.

Its a nice stove, Well built. Only a couple mods needed. The door gasket is put on with poor glue. Needed to re-glue with good strong high temp glue. The door latch spring is too strong. Needed to shorten the spring so you don't move the stove around when you latch the door. Needed to grind down the tab on the back of the door latch so it clears the adjacent wall. The stove should come with an ash grate because without one its difficult to keep going until you have a good coal base. I added one made from an old cast iron grill grate and it now works great. With that said, its a good stove and priced right. Only minor mods needed to make it as good as stoves 3 times the price.

No issues with the product yet. I’ve used it several times. The main use of this is for a sauna I built. It works well. The sauna got up 140 degrees in just 30 minutes. It’s not the BEST quality. But good for the price.
