I have a chiminea and love it.It puts out plenty of heat(if you stand close to it) I only burn wood in mine(lump is too pricey).The only thing I've ever cooked on mine was marshmellows for smore's
-
thank you for your reply. what size nest is that? do the chiminea come in only 1 size?
-
The chiminea only comes in one size(that I'm aware of).You can use either a large nest or a mini stand for it.Obviously,my large nest is an older model,but the newer ones work also
-
I like the stops on the wheels. also what size wood do you put in it? 1 more thing what is that mat in front of it? is that for sparks? if so where do I get 1. (thanks)
-
HAHA,yea,I put new wheels on with brakes.I use 12"-14" wood that I cut myself.I have plenty of wood on my property,so I doubt that I'll run out any time soon That is a grill mat that I got from one of the big box home improvement stores.I keep it there just incase,but I also keep a fire extinguisher and water hose

my daughter and family use it in dead of winter - too cold for me

I bought my Cheminea 2 years ago for my wife after I had just got layed off work. My BGE dealer basically gave it to me and for that I will be eternally greatfull. To my knowladge I am the only person on the forum or else where that has piped mine up. For $60 buck I piped it up so the smoke goes up insead of running me out of the Shack. We love sitting around it during the winter down to the low 30's like a bunch of biker trash. Wait a minute I am biker trash!! :laugh: It's really nice for 4 people down to 30 as long as the wind is not blowing. As far as cooking hot dogs and marshmellows is about it.
