Jotul F 602 CB - not worth it
I have owned two of these and made the mistake of buying one for a client. Because it's about the smallest nice looking stove you can easily find I got them. Big mistake.
1. it's not airtight - the inlet grate doesn't fully close. So an all night burn or heck even a 6 hour plus is impossible. I have to seal the cracks up with ceramic insulation to get a very long burn.
2. it's just too small- a stove 2" longer takes wood that is much much easier to cut and split and stack.
All in all get the Morso 2B or similar - it's still small but not too darn small and has an airtight construction.
This stove is beatiful but perfroms badly - i will be replacing mine with the morso 2b (i already have one) when I can.
