I guess it really depends on what you want. I wanted to be able to see
the fire like a fireplace, but the benefits of a stove. I wasn't
looking for a show piece.

Our stove has a screen that hooks over the door hinges when the door is open. Of course, for efficiency, it's not a great idea, but early and late in the season, when it's not too cold, it gives that fireplace feeling for a few. Also, using the screen is a great way to cool the stove down rapidly when there are no more windows to open...the fire inside burns out much faster.
