| Did you buy this as a decoration or to use? I'd be VERY cautious about firing it up and using it. It may have missing pieces, cracks or other problems and need to be vented into a chimney designed for a wood stove if you use it. Frankly, as a heating device it a losewr --- modern wood stove are FAR more efficient at heating. And as cooking equipment it is obsolete and hugely inefficient. It's best use is almost certainly as a decoration, if you have use for that. |
