J.A. Roby Cuisiniere Wood Cookstove

J.A. Roby Cuisiniere Wood Cookstove

The Cuisiniere sports a traditional style, that reminds us of our grandmother's cook stove. The difference between your Grandmother's stove and the Cuisiniere is the newly remodeled 2015 style with a convection oven, and increased efficiency. If you want to heat with wood and have the convenience of convection style cooking, the Cuisiniere is the perfect choice! Increased Higher Efficiency 88% (with dry seasoned wood). Wood cook stoves provide you the ability enjoy one of your favorite meals baked in the convection oven, delicious stove-top meals, with the new and improved Enameled Cast Iron Cook top. The enameled surface reduces cleaning efforts, with its sleek surface.

The stove was redesigned to circulate smoke around the oven for better oven heating capability.

Note: Please note that there are consumer reviews posting about the quality of the baking oven. As of 2015 J.A. Roby redesigned the engineering of the baking oven. Prior to 2015, the baking oven was not convection, thus the heat did not flow around the baking oven. In 2015, J.A. Roby redesigned the Cuisienere Wood Cook Stoves to include a convection baking oven. Thus, the heat flows in the top left side (when facing the stove) and flows downward, up the right side, and across the top oven the oven and out the flue stack. Since this redesign, we have had many customers reporting oven temperatures up to 550 degrees!

Highest Effiency!
April 23, 2014
Reviewer: Diana Couturier from Michigan
After weeks of searching for the lowest emissions possible and the highest BTU output; This is it. 95000 BTU's And only 1.34 per hour emissions. I've even researched EPA approved wood stoves without cooking features, but their efficiency is around 69%. Nothing seems to come close to this Cuisiniere. So this is the One I have chosen in the concrete home I'm building. Love everything about the many features of this Cookstove.
Caring Customer Service with RESULTS!!!

Dear Obadiah's,

I want to thank you, and compliment your caring and professional customer service.
The shipping damage to my wood cook stove created a tough situation.
I appreciate your perseverance on my behalf to obtain an adjustment to cover my repair costs and replace damaged parts.
