Best Pellet Stoves, Tested and Reviewed

Pellet stoves are a cozy way to add some extra heat (and ambience) to your home. These popular units, which burn compressed wood pellets, can be more convenient and efficient than conventional wood-burning stoves.

With pellet stoves, there’s no need to split logs or continuously fuss over the fire. Instead, you pour ready-to-use pellets into the stove’s hopper, which automatically feeds them into the stove to maintain a steady temperature throughout the day. 

Pellet stoves offer many homeowners an opportunity to save on their heating bills. But burning any kind of wood in your home, even in a modern and efficient stove, poses some health risks from airborne particulate matter.
