We ended up buying the Pacific Energy Super 27. It is still on the trailer in the driveway in its crate. I will try to post up some pictures after I wrestle it in the house a little later on.
Got the new stove today.

Where can a person buy this stove? Dealer?

Go to Pacific Energys website and they have a dealer search function.

I paid $1800.. minus $75 store rebate and minus $75 mail in manufacturer rebate. You also get the $300 tax credit.
Sounds good - Thanks for the info - Gives me something to go by when I talk with the dealer.
I am thinking about replacing an old Vermont Casting Defiant Encore instead of buying a new cat and refractory rebuild kit, about 500 bucks by the time I am said and done, then I would have to buy the 230.00 cat every couple three years the way I understand it...

The Pacific Energy Spectrum I built the "stovace" from has the same "super series" firebox... that thing is built to withstand a nuclear blast!! I yanked the fire brick from the sides and back, then abused the crap out'a it last year... and the firebox is still arrow straight. I did manage to warp the flame shield in the top though... but the way I was running it, ya' sure can't fault PE for that.
Enjoy.
Enjoy.

how do you guys get insured with stoves like that? Two insurances companys i talked to won't even look at me if i have a free standing stove anywhere in my house. A wood furnace,wood insert or fireplace is fine tho.
its called,,too much over edumacaaaation in the ins co offices...and people not putting tile in front of the loading door,,to keep the carpet from lighting from sparks..

I have the PE Spectrum and I love it. Only money I've had to put in it is to replace the gasket where the baffle and the air intake meet. A little pricey ($2500) but the wife had to have the custom color and custom door. If I remember right I think the base price was $1700. Great stove though.

I trashed my friggin gasket already and haven't even had a fire in it yet. I removed the baffle along with the door and firebricks to lighten it up a bit to move it in the house and on to the hearth. The gasket tore when I tried to put the baffle back in the stove. I called the dealer today and left him a message to order me a few.
