potbelly stove

Answer 2

Open fires, then pots in fireplaces, then cast iron wood stoves, then coal or oil fired stoves, then gas or electric stoves, then microwaves, then convection ovens - but not many people actually cook in microwaves.

Answer 3

it a wood burning stove. I've used one before. they're really cool to use. in the summer it would get kinda warm though.
