clearview vision 500 smoke control zone approved

After searching review sites for feedback on stoves and asking friends and people who had stoves, Clearview seemed to come out on top. Expensive purchase as we had to buy a smoke controlled unit for ours which also makes the fire box smaller. Overall very pleased with the product. Simple to light, the heat it produces is great, everyone comments on the style. One downside is the price but you have to pay for quality they are built to last. Have just purchased a pionneer 400 for our new house.
