- In this video I talk about my experiences with the Tiny Woodstove 3000kw Dwarf woodstove in our small 200 square foot cabin. I give my opinions with regard to lighting and maintaining a fire, specifically a top-down burn. I also cover things such as type of wood, general woodstove usage, creosote issues, overnight burns, and more.

This video turned out to be way more instructive that I was expecting. Thank you.
Thanks for the tinywoodstove link and review.
You’re welcome! I hope it was helpful and informative
Great video, just right zone. Tiny Stoves should sponsor you.
I have friends with a saw mill - lots of available wood for free. And shopping for a tiny stove. My gosh - expensive! We have "take off"! Whatever works for a person and their stove. :-) No use for coal here. I used wood burner to heat home for 40-50 years. Miss it and now I am in teensy tiny "cottage" and going back to wood for heat.
I picked up a Hobbit tiny cast iron wood stove a few years ago & it's been great - a tiny lttle tank which takes 6-7" wood & weighs in at an astronishing 110 ibs. Problem is, there is only one North American distributor, and they are in the Northwest, & supply is very limited (stoves made in Southeast England). It's perfect for my well insulated 200 sq. ft. cabin. Thanks for the video.
I heard that they stink. Even after 40hrs of burning and after 40hrs they stink if burning at high temperature.
@@iamnothingwithouthim That's not been my experience. I fired it up outdoors first - being careful to slowly increase temp. & then burn it hot for a few hours. Burned lots of diff. woodstoves since college & our double barrel - Jotul to Chappee (coal/wood) to catalytic American ones, & can appreciate this Hobbit. Cast iron grate means it's easy to remove ashes, even when running, & easy to start a fire. And being so heavy = extended release of heat after fire is out.
None of these tiny cheap stoves seem to dampen the air well, or you guys just don't know how nor realize the benefit. I like the look of this Dwarf, seems a proper cold air intake and good design. But can you actually turn it down to a dull roar? That is the burning question ;)
This is definitely not a cheap stove. Extremely well-made and the air controls are awesome. You can dampen it down to the point where you kill the fire no problem. The unit is very well sealed. But I wouldn’t recommend dampening it too far because then you’re giving prime conditions for creosote.
@@GarmiOffgridNice! Thanks for that. I've got an email into 'tiny wood stoves' asking what the difference is between the 3k and the lite. I don't need all the makeup air and glass vent gizmos. There's a 20lb difference which is significant. I'm wanting one on my sailboat in the PNW, cheers
@Cacheola Killer, I’m glad if I could help in any way. If you decide to purchase from them I would appreciate it greatly if you use my affiliate link to visit their site. 🙏 Unfortunately I can’t give you a discount but I get a small kickback from them for spreading the word about their awesome product.
@@GarmiOffgrid100%. You've been the only sane person that's reviewed a small stove out of the dozen plus I've watched, lol. I like the heat shields you've got. Hoping the lite model isn't a thinner gauge steel and I'll most likely pull the trigger
@@GarmiOffgrid toss the useless thermostats, burn good quality seasoned wood and dampen away. Get a good ripper going in the morning to burn off any creosote. Clean your chimney at least once a year.
Thanks! Learned a lot. But awwww. You missed the opportunity to say “and just slide the bin back in to the ash hole”….
Seems like something to optimize the airflow for burning would be a fun arduino based project.
I agree. It would be quite interesting.
Would this stove be sufficient for smaller camper van in minus 30 degree weather? Can the flue freeze? How can you prevent pipe from freezing?
Cheers!
Should be more than sufficient. And I believe the smallest dwarf stove comes in a variant that a lot of people put in camper vans. I think it has less weight or something. Regarding flue freezing, can you elaborate?.
If you decide to buy please use one of my affiliate links 🙏. It would be greatly appreciated 😊
I looking for pricing
Did you figure this out based on using it and experimenting, or research and tiny stove instructions?
All of the above
