I started burning corn with a Harman PC45 the first year they came out Then switched to a Quadra Fire AE as it was bigger and supposedly produced more heat. This was a big mistake since it has to shut down in order to dump the pot then restart so the house is cooling off during that time. I had looked at a Bixby as they were a top of the line outfit but was priced over 4,000.00 and that was over my budget. Then someone told me they were selling them on E-Bay for 1900.00. I bought one and after I learned how well they worked I bought a second for my basement when we hit the -20 temps. I also got one for my shop. The owner of the company got into legal trouble and they quit making stoves. But parts are readily available if needed. The common weak point was the convection fan had cheap bearings and would go bad in a couple years. They can be bought for less then 10.00 so are a cheap fix. You can run this stove with a thermostat or 8 different heat settings. It can deliver 50,000 btu all the time and is automatic as it dumps the pot as needed and saves the fire so it doesn't have to re light itself. It has a large fuel hopper 110lbs and good sized ash bucket. I can run it 30 days nonstop before cleaning it. It takes a little reading the instruction manual to figure it out and sometimes a e-mail to a Bixby owner with a question will help. Every dealer will brag their brand up but I have found if I can find parts elsewhere it will be cheaper
