5 Reasons to Get a Four Dog Steel Stove:
1. MORE EFFICIENT HEAT: True airtight door with a high temp gasket for a air tight seal makes for a superior stove! You also get a baffled fire box that makes the stove 20-30% more efficient then other stoves, by forcing flames to go around the baffle before exiting the firebox. This means more heat and comfort to you, and it keeps the heat in the fire box--not up the pipe!
All Four Dog stoves allow you to burn less wood, have more heat with less work
(Meaning: you have more time to relax and enjoy yourself on the trial).
2. SAFER: The airtight door allows complete control of your burn. Close the air intake, and the fire is out--no run away fires. Baffle makes the stove safer by forcing flame and sparks to go around the baffle instead of straight up the stove pipe. Reduces chances of hot sparks or embers getting sucked up the pipe causing a fire or burn holes in the tent.
3. GREAT FOR COOKING: The baffle creates a hot spot on top of stove for cooking or boiling water. Without the hot spot made by the baffle, most of the heat would go up the stove pipe, forcing the stove operator to run the stove much hotter--which results in burning more wood, making more work, overheating the tent and increasing cooking times.
4. DURABILITY : The Four Dog Steel Stove shell is 13 gauge steel, with reinforced top and door opening. Door is 10 gauge steel. This stove is meant to take heavy use for years to come, and is built "mule tough" through and through.

I bought this stove several years ago and have not regretted it. It is used year after year in a hunting and trapping cook shack here in SC. The stove is the easiest lighting, handiest stove I've ever used. It keeps us warm at night, cooks by day. The water jacket is a must have just for convenience. The coolest thing about the stove is it's performance. I have gone from a cold stove to fully cooked pork chop breakfast with grits, eggs and coffee in about 25 minutes. We even figured out how to do pizza. I can't remember what year we got it but it's been out on at least 6 years of hunts. It has a bit of patina but overall is in perfect shape. My gas cooker pretty much stays home. It just can't do what the 4 dog stove is able to do.

I recently purchased this stove for my small yurt I stay in. Although I have had limited use so far it has far outperformed the other stoves I have tried.
It frequently gets well below zero here in the winter. In fact our January high was 5 degree farenheit.
The stove does an excellent job with creating modest heat for extended periods of time with limited wood useage. I also find that it is extremely easy to control compared to other stoves. There is very precise air control.
I would highly recommend this stove to anyone who absolutely needs their stove to perform efficiently and effectively to live comfortably. I'm sure there are many other stoves that will be adequate for a short hunting trip. But I believe this stove excels for the consistent and modest heat output that is needed with the yurt living I do.
