The Traditions T300P-2 pellet stove by Lennox, the makers of the Whitfield pellet stove, is very attractive, with none of that utilitarian look. Along with the optional log set, and a humidifying kettle on the trivet, it could easily be mistaken for a traditional woodburner.
In case of a power outage, the control board will keep its settings and the stove will light itself again when power comes back on.It comes with a wall thermostat as standard.
The 50lb. hopper provides a long burn time along with low emissions and high efficiency.

Comments
The Traditions T300P-2 pellet stove remembers its settings and will come back on after a power cut. You may not want this to happen if you are going out. You could always unplug the unit.
Maintenance
The burn pot and its air holes should be cleaned between once a day, or at up to two week intervals as necessary
The ash slide plate should be used to drop the ash into the ash pan at intervals of up to two weeks as needed. The ash pan should be emptied at the same time.
The heat exchanger should be cleaned between every two days and two weeks using the built in scrapers.
The flue passageways in the stove and the flue itself should be cleaned every month or two.
The photo eye, which detects if a flame is present, should be cleaned along with its filter glass at between six months and a year. The filter glass itself may need cleaning more often.
The rear stove compartment should be cleaned once a year, the door and window gaskets inspected, and the combustion and convection blowers cleaned.
