    This pellet stove is NOT worth the money! Before the end of first season use the control panel died on ours, causing it to shut down on its own and wait for a repair. Start up of second season - ignitor died - luckily that was under warantee or would've been $200 repair for part, labor, and trip charge! Which is almost the cost of 2 ton of pellets to heat with! Only half way thru the 2nd season and now the auger is not working properly - making awful noise and not spitting pellets out appropriately which means it is not heating properly - so we are waiting for yet another repair! I do not recommend buying this brand!

    we bought avalon nastoria from alternative energy in hampton nh first thing when they left we had a vibration called them right away and they said they would take care of it. three months later and many calls later they show up meanwhile the top gasket doesnt seal spitting ashes out and burnt a ton of pellets in two weeks tech tightened the bottom latch so tight that you had to use a screwdriver to open it.dont buy a avalon

    i've onwed mine for 5-6 years now, it has worked as advertised. Quiet easy to clean and heats my first level very well (3200 sq ft home). Had it professionally cleaned once. Have not had any issues with this stove. The surrond piece that covers the fireplace opening can rattle for a few seconds sometimes.

    This stove is complete garbage! We have had it one season and it has broken down 3 times already. Our dealer says the manufacturer Travis Industries is aware that they manufactured a defective product but no one is willing to replace it. So we are sitting in the cold with a $4000 paper weight in our fireplace and $1200 worth of pellets in our basement. Shame on you Travis Industries. Stay away from this company and this Avalon Astoria Bay stove.

    I too am having problems with this stove, The service guys say they have at least 6 other people with the same problems, the stove keeps going out. This is definately a lemon, and I will be relentless at resolving this matter. I just left a message with Travis industries, they better fix this problem or they will absolutely be exposed for improper business practices.

    i have had 2 of these units, the first was replaced for not heating well. the second was no better, and used alot of pellets(2 bags daily). my dealer was great until i had a problem, and after telling him he second stove was not a good heater he said it was not his problem but,a manufacturer problem. i sold the unit and am installing another brand insert.
