Hi we live in the midwest, where the winters get pretty cold. We recently purchased a corn stove, which we heat our house with corn. Yes, shelled corn. We have had our stove for 8 days now and the furnace hasn't ran once. I do understand it hasn't been real cold, but so far our house has been staying between 71-73. OUr night have been getting down to around 30 and days in the 50's. We were tired of the high gas bills. Our home is around 2400 square feet. We are able to heat our home for the price of a a bushel of corn a day, which right now is around 1.70 a bushel, which is around 60.00 a month. It sure beats the 200.00 gas bills. The money we are saving on our gas bill will be put away for our next vacation. Hopefully the stove will pay for itself in a couple of yrs. If anyone is interested in purchasing a stove like this I would highly recommend buying one. We are very happy with it. I am curious to see what it does when it is -20 degrees out, ok not that I want it that cold.
