Jotul F 3 CB opinions

I had an F500 for 1650 sq ft. 1.5 story. Only complaint I had was that the upstairs was always 10deg warmer than where we lived downstairs. If it had all been on one level, it would have been a better setup.

Yes, stay away from any advancement that burns cleaner and extracts more heat from the wood but requires a little larger stove to accommodate baffles and also requires that you plan a little and not cut your firewood the night before the weather turns cold. The paint issue I can see as a legit complaint.

Lets be clear I didn't accuse you of being a moron, i'd appreciate it if you didn't insinuate that I am one. I usually keep 3+ cords in 20' or so lengths, about the same split and piled, and again the same stacked on pallets covered. The covered seasoned stacks generally tend to be about 1-2 years old from the time they were split/stacked.
