Wood stoves can be cheaper to heat than other types of fuels, due to the costs of the fuels. Especially if you have access to wood on your property or free firewood, this can drastically reduce your fuel consumption costs. It is also self-sufficient. Other types of stoves may rely on electricity or gas that must be provided by a utility company, but wood stoves are fueled by wood that you provide yourself. Some people also like the the look of wood stoves better than modern stoves.
