I've got both a free standing and an insert.
Insert is from Earth Stove, now owed by Lennox. The free standing is a Whitfield.
Both are awesome and reduce my winter heating by better then half. I wouldn't trade them for anything, hope that pellets continue to be widely available, and would replace one if it needed replacement.
I spent four years splitting trees to burn in a wood stove, and that experience under my belt, I am happy to evolve to the pellet stove.
One draw back people often over look is that a pellet stove WILL NOT work during a power outage. They need electricity to operate the blower and feed auger. Any emergency type generator will do the trick in a pinch.
I am a big fan, have a bunch of experience, having burned, fixed and installed many different types of pellet stoves, and HIGHLY recommend them to anyone considering it.
