My girlfriend purchased a $1, 600 stove med size woodstove. It didn't make it one winter and the flue assembly crumbled. When openning the stove properly to load wood there's a back blast of flames and heat that reach the ceiling. The service techs looked at the stove and said they would be to fix the problem.They haven't been since or called. I guess they don't back Vt Castings.We spent good money on what we thought was a good product. Now we realize that Vt Castings can't back up there own product. We were duped and have 500 lbs of useless cast iron in our house. NOT HAPPY WITH PRODUCT OR SEVICE!!! BEWARE CONSUMERS!! read full review »
