How to Use a Wood Cook Stove 

I'm here because my neighbor went to the emergency room and I had no idea how to close this thing off as his wife requested, so thank you for this video. You never know how it's going to be used.

My grandparents used a large wood range when Iwas a kid. They lived in a small city. Eventually changed to gas. I'm 71. Grandparents were born in the late 1800s. We had a small woodstove In our living room when we lived in Denmark. It was great. It heated the whole farmhouse.

I bought one from you guys in 1989 and we love it. It has a water tank on the side for heating water. The ice storm of 2009 knocked out our power for 5 days. Our daughter-in-law still had power and she invited us to stay with her. We told her we were having fun heating the house with our wood cook stove so she sent our granddaughters to spend the 5 days with us. We had a lot of fun cooking and keeping warm with our Elmira Sweet Heart stove. Your Friend in Owensboro, Kentucky

We purchased this exact stove for our off grid home in November 2016. We love it. I went right to the factory and looked at them, then purchased the floor model from the nearby show room. Amazing company to deal with. I got the floor model, which included the rear water jacket and the heat shield. I payed $5200 bucks, taxes included. Amazing deal. I picked it up and made the long trek 5 hours to our cabin. I can not say enough about this stove. Heats up quick when you know what you are doing and always use DRY wood. The oven heats to 350 within 20 minutes. And I will be using it in the summer with the propane side burners. Oh, and just to let you all know, we are putting in WATER in floor heating and this stove will run that too because of its unique closed loop system water jacket on the back which will be in conjunction with a hot water tank. It is a whole house unit. Remarkable. Love it!

Finally someone who knows how to film a damn explanation video. Thank you sir for the info! 👍👍

AWSOME OVEN WISH MY MOM WAS ALIVE TO SEE THIS I WOULD HAVE BROUGHT THIS FOR HER FOR CHRISTMAS

Great design. Gets the most out of the combustion chamber. The warming oven up top is nice touch.

Makes me respect our ancestors even more knowing this was a real skill passed on generation to generation.

Good demonstration by the presenter 👍

This man went to work and he's in crutches. That's dedication. Kudos.

I had neighbors that cooked with wood. I imagine that stove was as old as they were. There was a little crack in the oven that leaked a little smoke. Everything had a smokey flavor. So good. Miss them a bunch.

Watching in from England, we use a Rayburn - runs on coal and that heats the oven and heats the hot water and seven radiators.

we just bought one yesterday cannot wait to use it Just would like to use a griddle on it and wish the top was black and cast iron like my mom's old stove

I am currently 48 years old. Growing up my family used these type of stove's and I aways wanted one. My great uncle still uses one to this day. When I am at his house in the winter and this stove is running, I am very jealous. His kitchen and living room are open and it creates enough heat for the 2 rooms.

What a beauty! I hope one day I can own a wood stove like this one.

It really is ....a beautiful stove...wish these were seen more often in homes.

Carlos, you are an excellent public speaker. And you sure know your line of goods. Next time maybe talk about use of cookstove wood, the small pieces of what looks like kindling that maintains the oven temperature without temperature flare ups. Soft maple or cottonwood fully dried lets the baker bring the temp up gradually and then maintain it during the entire bake cycle. P.S. Those are great ovens! Too many cheap ones have a thin firebox that can crack when burning Illinois oak. Your ovens look ready to stop that.

I think the Elmira used to be known as the "Queen of cookstoves" not sure where I heard that. This is one NICE unit. Love to have one myself :)

What a gorgeous unit!

In older times, the ashes were saved to use for something in the house or would be sold. Very nice stove .

The Elmira Fireview wood cook stove is definitely the best investment for off the grid or EMP Survival. Not only is it efficient, but my grandmother baked the most amazing fresh baked breads and roasts, not to mention pies & turkey.

Wood or coal cooking stove are reliable then fireplace cooking in 1840s, and they are safer, and cook the food evenly, and less work when stirring the soup in the pot, and no more heavy lifting for a woman who works in the kitchen. Some historical buildings at Greenfield Village in Dearborn Michigan does have either of these, depending what year they are in. In the 1600s, 1700s, and 1800s as late as 1840s they used hearth fireplace cooking. After the 1840s, they used wood (later coal) cooking stove for later historical buildings.

Re-burn technology is very clever! great video

I have a small scale firewood operations and will be building a camp net year which I will post on my channel. I am going to put a nice cook stove like yours in the camp. thanks for sharing.

Please contact our Stove department at 888-438-5346 or through info@lehmans.com to see what options are available for this stove!

This is a nice stove that remind us in the old day. It is useful in village area and holiday camp. I saw a simple stove in a BBC documentary program. I hope I can buy one in Hong Kong, if I got a big house.

SOLD I so want one!

Amazing! I love wood cook stove!

Great instructional video. Thanks for sharing! 😊 👍

Excellent demonstration ! For once people can see the actual sizes (heights and widths) in comparison to a person standing next to the stove; usually folks are surprised that the pots are at waist level but once they feel that heat they see why (but can always put the stove on a hearth if you wish ) and the food is so different in taste !

I love it i want that. It looks so beautiful it's a piece of art plus the more important thing for our good and tasty food.❤🥞🍪🥮

Beautiful stove, I want one of these! Don't need the gas burners though.

arrived on crutches still performed the demonstration

Real nice looking stove .

I wouldn't want to use them all the time but they are kind of fun to cook with. I was always fascinated with burning with wood. It's hard to get a consistent heat. You're stuff either cooks super fast or takes awhile. Lol. You really have to watch things in the oven.

Hey Carlos... Way Cool Stove... I learned alot....

Hearing the old saying of just how grandmother used to make it sounds funny coming from such a young man. I'm 56 and remember 'how my grandmother used to make it' as true. His grandmother was probably born in the 50's. But, on a more serious note, I would like to have one of these at our mountain house. It would likely go into the cellar because there just isn't any other place to put it. The upstairs is a modern electric stove. The place is too small to put one of these in on that floor. Oh, and its cost?

Pretty stove, very nice

That is a beautiful stove

Beautiful kitchen!!!!!

Oh it’s a beauty!

Wow. So interesting. 😊

If only ever I had the money to pay for such a fancy woodstove!

Nice video. Good job.

Great speaker

Does anyone know what the efficiency rating of this stove would be? Thank you for your help. Mike

Do wood cook stoves throw a lot of heat out into the room. Would you want to cook with one in the summer time? Thanks. Good video.

Truly beautiful and great

nice video one comment though the gas burners were added so you dont need the wood burner on in the hot summer weather ps lovely looking cooker

Wow, that's a Cadillac compared to my grandmothers. She had a Franklin with a water reservoir to keep ready hot water. Boy when she got LPgas I didn't like heating water on the stove.

I'd love to have something like this to cook on. However NO gas around a live flame. I'd stick with just a plain wood stove.

Very nice I wish I had one🌷🌷🌷🌷

Thank you

@milkbone1975, it does put off heat which is why many people used to have what they called a summer kitchen. If you live in a modern home with fans and air conditioning it wouldn't be a problem.

My abuela usaba estufas de lena, seria interesante ver como funciona una.

Thanks; for the memories !! ;) !!

こんなオーブンのあるお家に住みたい、、、❤️ 素敵〜！！

I flippin love these stoves. Don’t have one sadly.

nice cooker for sure

Takes around four hours to bring up to baking temperature. Less time for range-top cooking. In the old days housewives were busy stoking their ovens during their waking hours. If fire went out it was more work to restart.

I would love to get a wood cook stove but the cabin is quite small and I was wondering what the clearance if any has to be from the wall to the store?

question does anyone know if we can burn those echo friendly logs or if it's better to stick to wood we are getting our wood burning stove in 4 weeks we are new at this thanks

beautiful. I want one in 1/12 scale right like that.

I love it so muh

Does the Elmira heat the house water?

During the winter always SAVE the ashes, they make GREAT anti-skid for icy sidewalks and driveways WITHOUT using Salt,,which will in time destroy your lawn grass.

Looks like my Elmira but I have 6 gas burners and electric oven controls in the top for the gas oven conversion

I have one of these stoves, bought from Elmira, Ontario, and shipped to me here in BC, Canada, except I opted for the model without the gas burners. Instead, I have a workspace on that side, where I store a few pots, and park my cooking. Besides, I already have a gas range, so I don't need more burners - but since I got this stove, we never use the gas range. Maybe in summer we will. :) I see he mentioned something about "an overnight burn". I can't get mine to go more than about 4 hours, with all the dampers down and my best Douglas fir pieces. Is an overnight burn really possible?

Where can I find pRTS FOR MY OLD DIXIE FOUNDRY WOOD COOK STOVE?

Where can a buy one stove like that? I'm from Mexico

How much does that oven stove cost I want to buy that stove

Good Stove, I love mine; My channel has the review after a years use.

supééér!!! 👍👍👍

I love it. Wish I could afford one

How do you connect the propane tank.

Buenas tardes.Alguien me puede decir donde fabrican esa estufa gracias

I would like to buy one of these can you help me with the link please

I did not see that stove on your website

Reburn the smoke?

The gas burners would be fine for summer cooking so you wont heat up the house with a wood fire. I like that feature. However, I think the bottom warming oven is a waste of space with the wide one at the top. Why have two? I think I would rather have a hot water reservoir at the bottom instead like many other stoves have. That makes more sense to me. Can this stove come with a water reservoir instead of the lower warming oven and the gas burners?

Спасибо, печнику всё понятно без перевода... Ты рукой показал всё..

Everyone knows that your grandmama never made a pie in one of those ovens....lol

la comida seguramente con un sabor mas delicioso puesto que la lena es mas mejor que bonita estufa

is that available in india

Love this wood burning stove however don't think it's wise to pair such a high heat appliance with propane gas

They are very common use in Mexico.

How much wud the stove with a gas combo cost???

Great design but i couldnt find it on Philippines

This STOVE is VERY PRACTICAL specialty, with the GAS OPTION, the only thing MISSING is a HOT WATER STORAGE, under the GAS BURNER'S .....

Goodday how much your woodstove? Thank you

The gas burners are located in the place where the hot water tank would have been in antique stoves.

哇 這麼豪華

Bella, preciosa.

I would like to know what this model is im sure hes said it but i must keep missing it.

I am looking. For the stove that has water heater .or tank
