Q: We have had our stove for a few years and after doing some research, are supposed to have a baffle for the stove itself. Was the Defender II supposed to have that included in the stove?

Q: can u cook on top

4 months ago
1 Answer
  • A: Yes, you can cook on the flat top of the US Stove Wood-Burning Defender Stove on Legs. The surface becomes hot enough to place pots and pans directly on it for heating water, simmering stews, or frying food. However, you must control the cooking temperature by managing the size of the fire and the stove's air inlets, as there are no traditional heat adjustment knobs. This feature makes it a highly versatile and practical appliance, particularly useful during power outages.

Q: Is the blower behind the stove and pushes air up over and out the front..? And are there adjustable speed settings

5 months ago
1 Answer
  • A: The blower is located on the back of the stove. It pulls in cool air from behind the unit. It pushes that air around the hot firebox and sends it out through the front of the stove (above the door) to heat the room. The compatible blower kit (Model CB36) has a variable speed knob (rheostat). This lets the customer adjust the fan from low to high or turn it off entirely.

Q: Can the flue vent be moved to the back ?

6 months ago
1 Answer
  • A: According to the manufacturer's official website and manual No., the flue vent on the US Stove 1200 sq. ft. Defender Wood Stove on Legs (model US1100E-L) cannot be moved to the back. Modifying the stove to create a rear vent would void the EPA certification and manufacturer's warranty, which can also affect insurance coverage and building code compliance.

Good enough for me

11 days ago
I do like this stove. It’s not perfect, the ash drawer is not connected to the burn chamber so you can not easily empty ashes into it so what’s the point. I have ash bucket for ashes. My biggest complaint is the sloped top. I wish it was flat. No room for a humidifier kettle. But it definitely heats the space it’s in. I wouldn’t need anything bigger.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Good little stuff but don't expect too much.

a month ago
As stated in the title It is a good little stove. I especially like that it's made in USA. It's good for a small spaces but that's about it. It's also good if you only plan to have a fire every now and then. If you want to burn each day and maintain all day long fires this stove would become very frustrating for you. The firebox is rather small and it will fill up with ash pretty quickly by the second day. It does come with an ash drawer but it's completely useless. There's no access in the belly of the firebox to allow Ash to dump into the ash drawer. I'm a little confused as to why they have the ash drawer and/or advertise it within the ad. The bottom of the firebox is one solid piece of metal. Then they have the fire brick stacked over the top of that. Like I stated before, there is zero access to allow the ash to empty into the ash drawer. I'm not sure if The manufacture is completely unaware of it or they are just using it as a marketing ploy. The only way you're going to clean out the firebox is with an ash shovel and pan (which gets potentially messy) or a good quality ash vacuum intended for wood stoves. It also has a one lever damper to control the air flow but The control is very very limited. First off it's almost impossible to slide the lever (in and out) to begin with because it's full of cast (hundreds of small metal balls each about the size of a chia seed) from the welding process. You have to put a lot of effort into moving it in order to control the air flow to the firebox. Once the fire is going I would recommend wearing an oven mitt to try to move the lever or you could significantly burn yourself on the side of the stove. (If it wasn't clogged with 'cast' this wouldn't be so difficult.) To sum everything up, this stove is good for a small garage, or maybe a cabin somewhere for occasional fires. With the lack of an ash drawer and very unreliable control of the air flow system You will get frustrated quickly if wanting to use this stove on a day-to-day basis.

No, I do not recommend this product.
