Kimberly wood stove: Operation, benefits & value

[@versatec1]

I have a very intimate relationship with my wood burner...life saver..money saver...best friend 😊👍

[@JCredTV]

match made in heaven!

[@norwood5150]

I have had a soap stone wood burning stove with catalytic converter for 30 years in my master bedroom of my home and LOVE IT!!!. My Van/RV came with a Webasto so that and a 120 volt ceramic electric heater has done the trick but for sure you can't beat that HEAT!!!

[@Janlcoyne]

I’ll be getting one of those stoves for my tiny house! The inventor of it lives on the same island I live on.

[@MultiRabe]

I can understand your attraction to this Kimberly Stove! Fire has been an important element for psychological comfort (and other things), since the earliest days of human evolution! Converting this power for more modern uses, is a logical extension of this element! Watching your vids, Im becoming more & more sold on it...Cheers man!

[@JoeCubicle]

That thing is cool as heck! I did not know the Kimberly was a gasifier stove. I've looked at so many gasifier setups on KZbin for years.

[@RollingEarthShip]

The Kimberly caught my eye in 2014 when I began my van build, unfortunately the price kept me away from it and then space just wasn't available. I agree with you, nothing like being able to generate one's own heat, and nothing like a fire roaring on a cold winter's night. 👍🏻😄🚐

[@johnbeckman8916]

I remember thinking that you were crazy to take out that other sofa bed, I was wrong. Your set up with the stove and work station is perfect! It seams so roomy and open and is very functional. What comfort! This must be your favorite RV to date. Emmy gets her own cat restroom too! KORITFW....................................................

[@SweetbearCoyote]

Love the stove and what you've done with the RV. The only thing I would change would be the purple zebra fabrics to something more cabin-ish like bear skin or a quilt. 😉

[@danoq1]

That is a fantastic infomercial. If Kimberly has not hired you yet, they sure as hell should. I WANT ONE!!

[@JCredTV]

hahaha, well I want a cut of any sales then lol!

[@singingtoad]

There's just something so mesmerizing about wood stoves and campfires. As a child I used to love going up to my mummo and pappa's house as they had an old wood stove in the center of their home and I could watch it burn for hours and hours on a cold winter night. They also had a wood stove in the steambath, but you didn't want to spend too much time staring into it, unless you wanted to turn into a lobster...lol

[@kathys.8686]

Thank you, Justin, for this in-depth explanation of your stove and its benefits. Love it! Love all of your videos; you're an inspiration!

[@shellyscott4822]

WOW WOW WOW!!!!...don't know what else to say except...I better start saving money!! lol But this is a total love and I can see where it would pay for itself in the long run

[@Robbie7441]

Noting like a wood burning stove I live in dublin Ireland an we put in a Stanley stove we burn oak and silver birch the heat and the way it looks us amazing. Great video thanks 😊🖒👍

[@redherringbone]

You’re the only reason I know about this stove (from your purple van). My Pleasure Way has so many intricacies that there’s no way to put one in my RV, but I’m def. putting one in my house.

[@robbinrichardson1040]

Great idea for the Kimberly Stove, I love my heat any time with out the concern of it being expensive to run. The initial fee would be worth it. :)

[@denaleesdreams]

Your home is beautiful! Your cat is gorgeous! Love the wood work, the stove and how warm and inviting one feels while watching the video! Thanks for the wood stove review!

[@christopheralmond5028]

I wanted to say Thank You for using close captions, I'm hearing impaired. I mainly read lips so when I see you in the vid no problem but when you move the camera away I can read the close caption. So Thank You !!!

[@chrisrathgeber3556]

Or Alberta!! Lol It gets friggen cold here during winter!! That being said this is a great review confirming the few others I've seen who use the Kimberly stove as well, definitely subscribing brother!!

[@WheelDweller]

You're right: I've actually wanted to know these things about your woodstove. If I get out on the road, this'll be an early inspiration!

[@JCredTV]

+Brian Fahrlander awesome!

[@GnatManAllinCoIronWorks]

Justin, I love hearing about the stove,you must have tons of questions about it. Being an old Sailor,I'm very familiar with the Kimberly line.Unbeatable,absolutely the BEST units available.Propane,white fuel,gas,or PNG don't even come close,they almost all leave condensation in the unit. Thanks for sharing,and sending Best wishes from S/W Florida. C-Ya!,,,,Peace!

[@JCredTV]

+GnatMan Allin agreed, and KORITFW!

[@SparkyHelper]

"off the grid as much as possible." with Netflix in the background. Rofl Love the video and recommendation.

[@XplorerSteveDIY]

There's a lot to like about it. Great unit.

[@everwharesismine]

can you tell me if you feel heat from the waist up in the rv and cold from the waist down...? I had an Argosy for a couple of years and the heat would run you out if you stood up, but it was freezing on the floor...

[@jonspoonamore3721]

Stupid question.... I think I missed this somewhere. The air intake.... What did you use to keep the critter's and insect's out? Just a wire mesh? I know you have it sealed so that kind of stuff won't get into the RV. But, what if something built a nest in the air intake?

[@LiveSimpleLiveFree]

Can you drive your motorhome while the stove is burning, or do you have to wait until it goes out to drive.

[@LostCaper]

Beautiful stove. I love a wood stove and being able to watch the fire. $4000 grand is very steep if that's how much they really are.

[@DPaquette]

How often do you have to clean out the flue pipe with one of these? Love that you included the information about the kitty and how smart they are around these. That would be my concern as well for my kitty. Thanks for posting this.

[@fanech14]

That woodstove design really make sense,not like others

[@WifeBTR123]

Looks like a very cozy setup.

[@nikoladermendzhiev7226]

Mate I 100% agree with you. Take care.

[@SparkyHelper]

Your fur baby is so cute!

[@charlottedaily6111]

HOW DO I GET ONE OF THESE STOVES? I WANT ONE FOR A 26 FT. TRAVEL TRAILER.

[@jayontario7285]

You Rock!.....trolls will meet their maker....Your channel and you are priceless.....

[@JCredTV]

+Jay 'Ontario KORITFW

[@victorgomes7585]

Fantastic video Justin.

[@dilbotmacguillacutty4849]

great vid bro! lots of details. watching the wood gas slowly burn looks like the northern lights. very cool!

[@salcanale5855]

Really enjoyable and informative video.

[@tonyman246]

Looks cozy. The ultimate man cave/rv setup.

[@JoeCnNd]

Can we get a kitty tour of her secret passages? I'm sure we can fit her with a go pro.

[@Flashem2me]

to buy New I looked in to these years ago.. they were about $3000-4000 Pretty expensive.. There mission statement is awesome...(helping Other countries) But Americans could use this stove...

[@billkrause4585]

You worry about the cat jumping up on that stove. We have e cat too. How long does a log last? How many do you use through the night? After the fire is out, does your camper/space hold your heat. I like it. Is there a screen on the air intake, so you don't get stink bugs or what have you?

[@jspate61]

Thanks for posting this vid! I've been waiting a long time for it. The Kimberly is to die for. I think it's worth every penny spent. BTY, I got totally hoodwinked by your April Fools vid. I almost had to turn it off, it was so painful (having actually been in that situation myself so many years ago). LOL! Keep on rockin, dude!

[@leolessa]

that´s pretty cool wood stove, if you are going to get a thermoeletric generator (TEG for short) there are commercial one available, you should take a look at the devil watt units they are quite expensive but seen pretty good. keep on rocking in the free world brother.

[@pu89ck]

Just another great video.

[@burningout.1798]

Nice setup

[@The_Smith]

Great vid on the stove, I'm from the 'east' (. . . Saskatchewan . . .) and have lived with and used wood stoves almost all my life. Got a line in the budget for one of these for my retirement 'home'. If you haven't done so already do some research on Bogart industries TM-2030 and SC-2030 I think they are close to perfection when it comes to small solar controllers and getting every amp into your battery bank. I have them on an 80 watt panel hooked to a couple 6 volt deepcycle in my camper which is never hooked to shore power any more and I have never had the batteries below 90% with some pretty hard work. KORITFW

[@Itsthekellyschannel]

That stove is amazing.

[@tarotcindy4834]

Ok I'm sold! LOL! Great video Justin! Can you tell me what kind of thermoelectric generator do you recommend?

[@mikeysonlyvanspage]

Thank you for sharing. Excellent educational video. Your restroom for the cat is possibly the best thing I've seen on KZbin. KORITFW :0)

[@SF10DANK]

Also just wanted to say that I really appreciate how you show the real deal , tip and tricks , in the hard parts of rv living because the Internet can make it look so easy and romantic but hardly show the tuff times like shitty people complaining about where u park, just negatively profiling a person in a not so new rv as a threat for leach etc the list can gO on . Everyone or most just show the good or even go out their way to make it looks so easy and always beautiful living . No pics of condensation ,cold nights, police harassment etc. Etc ,etc...So I really try to send co workers to your channel so they can see that pro pain or using gas to warm the rv on yearly cold nights .0mg the kimber stove /heater is the business! One can cook I mean it multiple uses . Anywho list me stop ugging you . Bit if u can answer just a few or my hundred of questions I bother you with . It will help me with time and money so much I wish I can pay you for all the inspiration,? you give to thousands. My God blesses you And stay up my friend

[@charlottedaily6111]

I WANT TO KNOW HOW TO DO ELECTRIC AND CHARGE THE BATTERIES TOO. THIS IS GREAT FOR ME.

[@annamaybeekman5152]

This stove looks great Next yr. I will move to N. Idaho It gets to 20 below 0 there I will be in my 5th wheel a bit..does it keep the pipes from freezing?

[@trailerparklife2484]

Love your setup plenty of elbow room.

[@aliveandfilming2]

great video J ! ever thought of adding a fan at your air inlet.... with a speed/dimmer control. it'd help at the beginning. that shrine of a stove is worth every dollar! u couldn't build it for that price I'm happy for you .not jealous but a tad envious :-)

[@TinyDreamer]

Awesome! Thank you so much for that demo! :D

[@panelvandan1057]

i looked at these for in my bus, wish i could afford one of them.. very nice stoves..

[@steveh4873]

Have you got a video on how you run your t.v, lights and all sorts happily off grid?, thanks!

[@MuffinStab]

interesting, but how you stay cool with fashion living in rv tho? you can burn off condensation with stove in a winter, but how you stay cool and dry in summer?

[@A1DJPaul]

Thanks, Good Video, Great fire . how do you generate electric from it ? How much Electric can it produce ? how long to charge a Leisure Battery ? ( not the exact figures , just an approximate guess would be Fine . ) CHEERS !

[@darrellbarron6901]

cool it will be interesting to see a working thermal generator and if its actually useful.

[@rambolambo5754]

Hey MR.thats a nice stove got there..

[@d3bbi339]

This video is good vibes all the way! :))

[@FBall-im8ui]

Molson Canadian eh! Great I am loking at this at Xmas 2023 and a Kimberley today is $5250 CDN Plus tax

[@davidbradley3982]

coolest stove ive ever seen... i wonder if it would warm up say a 30foot airstream ?., cheers Justin. peace from nz.

[@JCredTV]

+David Bradley sure will. It's rated for 1500 square feet of well insulated space.

[@davidbradley3982]

***** thanks Justin.

[@christy7270]

Great video Justin. I have to ask, does your RV have a smoke smell from running the stove? And if so is there a manufacturer that claims little to NO smoke smell?

[@marvinadn]

Pizza on a pizza stone? Is that possible?

[@raymetaleyes]

awsome! just checking out the p9000 might not be big enough of a van like Malindas van, the one i might get.! shit... .... would a p12000 be better for a van like hers maybe with her non stock insulation? at least i think its like colorado van4x4s van her van ect... just asking not to be a pest justin C. thanks SHAMUS

[@raymetaleyes]

+Ray Olsen I know your previous van was well insulated I'm assuming.

[@yamoshisaiyain707]

JustinCredibleTV How much did you pay for your Kimberly Stove?

[@Charles197338]

whats the Btu's on it and will it heat a 399 SQ Tiny home ?

[@DPaquette]

The website says that it will heat up to 1500 sq ft.

[@manchine4313]

This video gave me a Woodie.

[@NomadPatriot]

I wonder how well that Kimberly would hold up in a larger space like a cabin. good vid

[@TedNewkirk]

+Nomad Patriot Their website claims it will heat up to 1500 sq. ft. cabin. But, that sounds like it is stretching it. I wouldn't want to be in freezing weather with it trying to heat that much space. Looks great for just about any RV or trailer although you'd need to circulate the heat a bit, which may require running a fan.

[@JCredTV]

+Nomad Patriot they sell the larger Katydid stove for bigger spaces. www.unforgettablefirellc.com/katydid-wood-stove/

[@tonyinfinity]

OMFG!!! I thought sure I could spend up to $1000 for a nice wood stove, 4 GRAND?!!! WHAT?!!

[@JCredTV]

+SUPERNOVA people easily spend ten grand on nice ones for their homes. Saves money on wood compared to others, burns far more efficiently, and way cheaper to install. And here's a cost comparison: www.unforgettablefirellc.com/kimberly-wood-stove/

[@JCredTV]

+SUPERNOVA $1000 is about the price for the little propane heater though.

[@JCredTV]

SUPERNOVA compared to cars, the Kimberly is a well equipped sedan. But certainly not the priciest wood stove. You get what you pay for. I currently have an offer for $45 grand on my RV...without the stove maybe only 40 grand in their eyes. Simple as that.

[@tonyinfinity]

***** I'm not knocking the stove, it's beautiful. But I just ordered a Mr. Heater for emergency and portability, also a Camco propane heater, and a Cubic Mini stove all for under $1000. I'll switch off between the two when I don't want to deal with a fire, all for a quarter of the price. But hey like i said the Kimberly is beautiful but I'm cheap, not going to spend over 4 grand on a vacation RV that's only $12k, if I lived in a $150,000 sailboat, sure.

[@DPaquette]

I was wondering how long one of those presto logs last?

[@masonwheeler8515]

Nice video. I just started watching your videos within the past few weeks, so forgive me if it has already been asked, but have you had other wood stoves to balance out the review of the Kimberly? Also... Does the wood stove violate your RV insurance?

[@notme751]

like the creativity though nice rig also

[@omarpino4384]

Justin could you show how your stove cooks a meal?

[@Rebar160]

Can you drive with the stove going?

[@JCredTV]

yep

[@bernard240vdc]

+george farnsworth Well when you drive it is not at all important ifyou can use the stove because when you have the RV main engine running the Main engine can more than keep this entire RV warm actually the total heat output from a V8 engine under load is probably capable of heating a small apartement building

[@JCredTV]

bernard240vdc yeah but it's more like, I often have it running but I have to run to the store, or drive to work, things like that. It doesn't affect the stove. If anything it makes it run better as it sucks all the air in from the intake underneath.

[@Rebar160]

+bernard240vdc yeah your right I never thought about that thanks.

[@Jimmythekid007]

Just got a 32ft. & 7in. Yes sir , I agree . I did look into this wood stove. I know its a little pricey . (about $3,500.00) And from what I heard it is a great investment.

[@JCredTV]

+Jim Bo 007 about $5,500 or $4,000 USD, not including the flue piping, cap or hearth. But I would definitely buy it again!

[@Jimmythekid007]

Wow, the price I got was from a old video? For that kind of money, I will build one. Thanks. See you on the road :)

[@Jimmythekid007]

Just gotta say that I can`t believe the price on this stove. Yes it`s a really good wood stove, but $5,000.00 and that`s not the full kit. Is there gold in it ? These ppl are out of their minds. Having said this I`ll probably buy it , Thanks again. ( it is a must have ) jim.

[@GoodasGuilty]

Thank You for the length of video and focus. Something throwing me off, the warmer temperatures of Your area, makes me think that it would not be warm enough for Ontario, other wise You would be too hot all of the time. I am still up and still reading.. just my current thoughts..

[@MarcelGodfrey]

Hi love the stove, how much are they to buy new?

[@JCredTV]

+Marcel Godfrey www.unforgettablefirellc.com/kimberly-wood-stove/

[@MarcelGodfrey]

Thanks

[@Olympia_Outdoors]

now that is freakin' cool dude!!!

[@Olympia_Outdoors]

new sub.

[@franks4407]

How much does it cost?

[@rshotrod1965]

You probably won't comment on this question, and I expect it, but how does this stove stand up to hard wood like oak?

[@JCredTV]

+rshotrod1965 what do you mean? Stand up to it how?

[@JCredTV]

rshotrod1965 I've used all sorts of wood, but the most efficient and longest burning is the presto logs, that's why I use them. That and the fact the CEO of the company highly recommends them, so I had to try them. I'm not gonna do a two hour video showing every single type of wood lol. But yes I've burned lots of hardwoods as well, but my goal is zero chopping and zero splitting if possible. Cheers.

[@JCredTV]

That being said, out in the middle of nowhere for extended periods of time I'd obviously use other woods. KORITFW

[@rshotrod1965]

Thanks for the response Justin, I wasn't aware that it was recommended to burn those type of logs in that stove, I must of missed that in your previous video's on the stove. My bad.... KORITFW my friend,,,

[@JCredTV]

+rshotrod1965 it's one of many recommended woods, it just happens to be highly recommended by the CEO and by other users of this and other similar wood stoves. Cheers!

[@janniewebb3060]

Nice but I like the cub and grizzly.

[@notme751]

thanks

[@taurian101_official]

OMG you went there.

[@SVELFARO]

So do you like the stove, would you buy another one, will it keep you warm all night ? JUST KIDDING!!! I watched the whole video and those previous to this, and for the guy who asked if you can drive with it running YES you can, don't remember what video that was look for it a couple of months ago.

[@rjr-yp9uj]

The Kimberly IS high tech.

[@BezNomerkov]

plus u canget electricity from it www.termofor.ru/catalog/model/pechi_portativnie/indigirka/ During operation of the furnace, two built-in thermoelectric generator (TAG) are heated and produce 12-volt direct current V and a total nominal output of 60 watts.

[@JCredTV]

+TreeK SaintP I talked about that three times in this video lol

[@BezNomerkov]

***** hahah russian is ma native meh, i don undesten anything clear from speach)

[@mrmagoo9901]

Cool dude...

[@skulloone4107]

awesome

[@muttgusse]

when i buy a motorhom i will buy one sun fan! that power its self, and produce heat! then install one old but fine husqvarna woodstove

[@life5161]

thing is SWEET

[@perfectlylonely]

Would be more convinced if you would show the lack of smoke from the chimney after warm up.

[@JCredTV]

+Scott TheOzoneGuy I've shown it before, a quick search at my video list will show it. Cheers.

[@2broketim479]

how about coal? can you use it? ........................ Tim

[@TheDigihax]

Shit man, I wish I knew how to install 1 of these in my Travel Trailer...

[@martinshow5146]

you can put a coffe maker on it

[@notme751]

rally the 9000 wasn't warm enough the only thing that scares me about the wood burning stove is that you can't exactly turn them off at will and like you I'm a city dweller so it's just easier with the propane and not Gathering wood

[@JCredTV]

+Jjames Notme I am also a city dweller. Running out pf propane in middle of the night sucks! And the P9000 and 12000 put out only about 10% as much heat. They are not meant for primary heating, only as casual supplementary heating. Can't even cook on them.

[@sscbkr48]

loved the unit until I checked the price.. yeOw! $3500. (usd) + exchange/piping/taxes. With a much longer burn time than the cubic ($500cad), it would be perfect for heating our boat. The search continues.

[@blnzrfn2000]

Holy Moly ! That stove is almost 5 thousand $$$$ installed according to the website . Nice stove but WAY out of my families budget :(

[@dannytaf6517]

wauu super
