The Cons of Burning wood
  1. It's messy.  Bringing the wood inside from the wood shed is messy, cleaning out the firebox is messy and cleaning the chimney is messy if you do it yourself. 
  2. It's more work.  If you are fortunate enough to live where you can use wood from your property, you still have to cut, split and stack the wood.  If you purchase wood from a vendor, you may still have to stack it yourself.  Don't forget building and tending to the fire as well. 
  3. It's not as easy to control the heat as with a gas or pellet stove so you are more likely to overheat your room.
