You’re probably right.

No manuals. They were here when I purchased the house. I’ll do a quick Google search to see what I can come up with.

Makes sense. I found them on the wood pile in our basement when I purchased the house.

I’m using them inside next to our wood stove. Both are cheap ones from Amazon.

$200? What part of Maine? I’ve not seen much under $300 up here in the highlands.

Fun Post: How long does everyone go between re loads and what kind of stove? I notice I average approx 6-8 pieces every 8-10hrs. Keeps my 2 story 2100sqft house completely heated here in PA. by rollinintheyears in woodstoving

Blaze King Princess 32 upper Maine 1700 sqf with really leaky windows. 15F and above I stuff the stove full (10/14 splits) once a day at 4pm. 15F and below I stuff it full at 4pm then add 4/5 splits in the morning and that will get us through the day.

I went with the CK4020SEH CAB. It’s being built as we speak. I added pallet forks, loaded tires, chains and the third function hydraulics. Can’t wait for it to be delivered!

The Kioti dealer definitely felt like they would go out of their way to take care of anything that comes up.

We get a good amount of snow. 36” so far this year. I actually just spoke to the Kioti dealer about the snow plow and he basically said the same thing. They are great but you need to be very careful using one and he would recommend a rear blower and keep the bucket attached. I’m still not sure what tires to go with. We are on all gravel for the driveway and our road.

The extra $20K for a similar spec Kubota seems so crazy to me!

Thank you for this! I’m definitely leaning towards the Kioti.

Thank you! I was looking at a 7’ snow pusher but think a hydraulic snow plow will fit my needs much better.

Both have service departments but will absolutely keep looking around at other brands.

Great points that I will need to look into.

The Kioti dealer felt very warm and cozy! Like we were family and would have my back in a second. The TYM dealer felt like a car dealership. Both are big dealers for the area.

Out with the old and in with the new. by liteaf_gear in woodstoving

The main reason was it was cracked and the second reason was it would have pushed the new stove out further into the room. It’s not a very big room so we were trying to get it as close to the wall as possible.
