Heat the house and cook on the stovetop. Quick Facts • Heating Capacity: 900–1,850 sq ft • Maximum Log Size: 16″ • Burn Time: Approx. 7–10 hours. • Fuel: Wood. • Controls: Thermostatic air control. • Fan: Optional Who It’s For Opening a stove door to reload can send smoke into the room and ash onto the hearth. You need a stove that reloads cleanly and does more than heat. The Forge & Flame Dauntless, crafted with Vermont Castings, is for the household that gathers around the stove, cooks on it, and wants steady heat through the night. A front-load stove makes a mess; this one loads from the top. What Makes It Special A cast iron griddle top gives you a real cooking surface, and an optional cooking grill takes it further. Top loading keeps smoke and ash inside and lets you fit more wood. A swing-out ash pan lets you clear ashes even when the stove is hot. A thermostatic control and an included catalyst help hold a long, even burn of up to 10 hours. Choose classic black or one of three enamel colors: twilight, brown majolica, or bordeaux. Possible Downsides • The fan is a separate kit. • Logs over 16 inches will not fit. If you want a stove that heats the room and doubles as a cooktop, the Forge & Flame Dauntless is the right decision. Pancakes on the griddle, warm feet on the floor, and the whole family in one room. Choose classic black, twilight, brown majolica, or bordeaux, and add the cooking grill, a fan kit, stove gloves, a thermometer, a trivet, a child safety screen, a cast iron steamer, or a wood box.
