we will probably buy used, so what do we need to look for in the stove?
also, how much wood does it take for a winter in maine?
what is seasoned wood?

I like Pellet and Corn burning stoves. They are designed specifically to heat large areas and burn manufactured wood or corn fuel.

It's been since the 1930s for me, but that takes a lot of wood/trees.
Even coal back then was no small amount. It took about a ton of coal for winter, in a pot belly stove. WVA.
Bedrooms were closed and cold.
Seasond fire wood is usually dried about a year, with no sap remaining in the wood.
