We recently picked up a hearth wood stove for our primary living space coz after years of using an older catalytic unit that finally gave up, we (I, actually) wanted something low maintenance, my husband wanted EPA certified, and budget friendly and after some research pleasant hearth ticked a lot of boxes, especially since we heat primarily with wood once winter sets i, its been good but the burn time feels shorter than advertised unless I'm really careful with the wood size and load, been using a mix of seasoned oak and cherry, split small to medium, and still refueling every 4 to 5 hours on colder nights
Who else uses a pleasant hearth?, what'd you think about yours, lets talk
 
I've been running one the past two winters and yeah, the burn time's shorter than I hoped too. It does crank out heat though if you're on top of the loading.
