Comfort Glow CGWS900 Cast Iron Wood Stove review

A cast iron box stove that takes 22 inch logs and has a flat cooktop, with a poor 2.6 stars from 5 ratings.

What the listing commits to

Comfort Glow states cast iron construction, up to 900 square feet, 22 inch logs, EPA certification, a 6 inch flue and a flat cooking top. It measures 32.5 by 20 by 23.5 inches, a long and low shape.

Why the price is low

A plain box with few published figures can be cheap. There is no BTU rating, no weight and no warranty in what we read, so you have less to go on.

Buyer feedback

Five ratings at 2.6 out of 5 is too few to judge, and it is not encouraging. Read them before ordering.

Setup

Before ordering, download the manual and read the clearance table, then ask your local building department what it requires. Have the installation inspected, and put a CO alarm on the same level as the stove.

Questions this one prompts

Can I cook on it?

The listing describes a flat cooktop surface for boiling, frying and warming food.

How much heat does it make?

The listing gives up to 900 square feet but no BTU figure, so you cannot compare output with other stoves.

Our score

7.2/ 10

A low price for cast iron, but with little data and poor early reviews. Pay more if this will be a main heat source.
