Wood burning stove advise

[IceBoy]

Hi All,

We have decided that we want a wood burner in out living room.

This is the first time we have ever had a stove and we have never had an open fire or anything.

We are gas central heating type of family but the cost of gas/electricity is just getting crazy.

So we want a modern looking stove of 10-14kw as the room is pretty large.

What should I be looking at when shopping and what else should I bare in mind?

Are they easy to light, maintain, live with....any help appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
