We went down to Amherst, NH to look at the new pellet stoves intending to add a second one in the dining room. Sticker shock took care of that pretty fast though. We purchased our first pellet stove a Whitfield Traditions stove about 6 years ago for ~$2,200 with the custom green enamel finish the wife wanted. The new Harmon stoves started at ~$3,150 and they cannot even take pellet orders until after August, so you could have a situation where you have a stove and no pellets to burn in it for the season.
So we decided that we'll wait on the pellet stove, get a couple cords of wood in and maybe look elsewhere for a stove, either that or we'll put in a Monitor propane heater I've been looking into, time will tell. Monitor Heaters
The wood situation in the Northeast is getting bad fast. I've seen wood trucks almost daily delivering wood and two of the local dealers have sold out of green wood already for the season. $245 green, $365 seasoned per cord.
The situation is going to get bad fast with the pellet and wood situations.
