This is the one I installed in our house what do y’all use
Was it a tall round stove? Wondering if it was a Godin, we had one in our house when we bought in in 1989 and it was a few feet tall and round and was a top loader and had the shaker grate on the bottom and you could see a little bit of the coals through Mica plastic. It also was a wood/coal burner. Darn good steel stove.....Old school,
My Grandfather had a long narrow circulator style stove in the kitchen. It must have been wood/coal because it had a shaker grate. He'd feed it small chunks of wood through the top burner cook plates. I thought is was so cool using the tool to lift off the plates, feeding the fire and adjusting the burn. Even though a regular kitchen range sat along side, Gram would use this stove to slow cook magical meals, roasts, soups, boiled dinners, all winter long. Oh, the smell of food and wood smoke.
Very nice, what brand is it?This is the one I installed in our house what do y’all use
It’s a Englander my dad bought it new probably in 1985Very nice, what brand is it?
Mine is a 1993 Dovre Aurora, made in Ilinois, company is long gone here in the US but it is still around in the UK. Very good stove, very happy with it after 27 years!!
Very nice, thanks, enjoy it! If I may be so bold as to suggest using some Rutland glass cleaner and conditioner on the glass if you want to keep it clean and enjoy seeing the fire, I have used it for years and it seems to be the best I have found. Again, just throwing that out there, you may already be happy with another product.It’s a Englander my dad bought it new probably in 1985
No, not round. Narrow rectangular with white enamel case. Nearly the same height as the kitchen stove IIRC.The top had two large removable burner plates, disks.Was it a tall round stove?

The Godin was a very good stove, heated up fast and did a great job. I then won an Efel Symphony cat stove in a raffle at a local wood stove shop but wasn't happy with it, sold it and bought the Dovre Aurora that I still use today. But the Godin was really good, only drawback is you couldn't see the fire but heat wise it kicked ass!!No, not round. Narrow rectangular with white enamel case.

I've read about the Godin, almost bought a petite Godin once. Very efficient from what I understand.
Mine is a old school Englander. Bought it new in 1981. That will be 40 years and counting this year. I felt like I spent a lot of money for it back then. It has saved me thousands of dollars since 81. Alotta wood has gone thru there. It's still as good as new. I made deal on the side of it to heat my water, which is a good move if you are in it for the long haul.
Not a tank on the stove. It’s a 1 1/2” thick chamber with a 60’ coil of copper tube in it. Water circulates thru and heats up the water in a 50 gallon storage tank. I did weld it up. Works like a charm. It’s a real moneysaver. I’m pretty tight/thrifty.Nice little water tank there. I like it. You weld it up? Any leaks [emoji1787]
