A propane gas stove doesn't require electricity to keep going. It allows you to stay warm even if there's a power outage. Propane stoves don't require the labor of splitting, stacking and carrying in logs. Propane tanks can easily be refilled by your gas company. Finally, propane burning stoves are affordable and there are a lot of models to choose from.
