About Us

When some people look at a crackling fire, they see more than a cozy atmosphere. They see freedom. Freedom from dependence on energy they can’t get, or don’t want. Freedom from modern life’s uncertainties. Freedom to live in the way they choose, in homes that are more truly their own.

That’s what we see, too. For 150 years, US Stove has been empowering that spirit of freedom with heating appliances that keep Americans warm and self-reliant. As America’s hearths transformed from nation-building necessity to proud symbol of independence, we’ve remained obsessed with inventing and building the heating appliances that make it possible.

As we look forward to our next 150 years, that’s one thing that won’t change. US Stove will continue to perfect biomass heating so that it has a clean, safe, renewable role in the energy-secure future we all want. Because we know what keeps America’s home fires burning.

This is what I was looking for to heat my 40 / 56 ft shop. It keeps it around 65 to 70 deg. F. It is a bit light duty but, for 100 bucks it is a good deal. Easy to install. I made a heat exchanger around the barrel and with a blower underneath pushing outside air around the Hot barrel inside. The heat blowing in my shop gets around 150 deg. f. One bit of Caution. HOT!!! It works great for a man cave but keep children and drunk buddies away from it. You will want a pair of welding gloves when operating. I already burnt myself on the door. A steel or wire fence around would be good if you use the barrel only.

    One of my favorite amazon purchases to date. Converting an old barrel into a camp stove was made easy with this kit. Its very well made and anyone with some basic skills can knock out a barrel stove quickly. It has been in used now for quite a while and looks like the day it was unboxed. Not related to the product but always a good suggestion is to use a few inches of sand in the bottom of your barrel to keep hot coals elevated and off the bottom of the barrel. It will make it last much longer. Love this kit.

    Overall the kit is well made and easy to assemble. I am happy with the finished result.

    However the kit is not well packaged. No packaging protection what so ever, just a cardboard box. None of the pieces in the box were protected in any way. I ordered 2 kits so far with one having a broken foot assembly.

    I do however recommend the kit.

    Fun little kit. All the bits you need minus the barrel, 6" stove pipe and rain cap.
    I put 6' of 6" solid dryer vent with a rain cap as my stovepipe. It works for a year of weekly use until the rust and wind take it out.
    I replaced it the chimney with thicker gauge stove pipe. Hoping to get a couple years out of it.
    Be sure to bolt the stove down to a concrete block or wide-base wooden stand or else high winds can knock it over.
    As a burn barrel, the damper is a pointless air restriction.

    Great kit for making barrel stoves. I've been using mine for 2 years now and the only issue is that the surface is completely rusted - which I have no problem with since its cast iron. Very easy to install and everything fits well (like the front vent and door).
