I am looking for some guidance with an inherited Oakvale Andes 161 stove. It came with a late uncle's house in central NY, and I believe he used it as a woodburning stove. Thanks to a good friend, she directed me to this site and my sister (the present owner) would like to sell it rather than see it go to waste. She'd like to ask a fair price for it, and it will need to be picked up & restored. We do not know whether all the parts are present, and I am turning to this forum for your help.

Welcome. That's a good start. Now you need to shoot some pics of the back of the stove, and open up the doors, to show the pot, grates, and ash pan. Looks like it has potential, and would be a good "COAL" stove.

A very,very nice heater. Good quality make and very efficient on fuel usage.
The top half of stove has iron sides, the cheaper model would of had sheetmetal sides.
Some more pics would help with appraisal.
Pictures of the big bump on the back of stove. From the left and right side. Try to capture the whole bump from top to bottom. Think I see a crack on the right view by the top edge.
Picture looking in the upper front doors. Looking down inside at the shaking grate bars.
Picture looking in the very bottom door also.
Hopefully not much wood was burned in it. That will destroy the stove quicker than coal fire.
Depending on the amount of damage, will determine the price. Not a stove seen everyday, uncommon but not rare.
I might be interested in purchasing your stove.Where about in New York? Closest big city is good enough for now.

Thanks for your help. It didn't occur to me to open the doors - we were too busy scratching our heads as to where to even begin with this. I will post the rest of the pictures as soon as I can. We're located close to Syracuse, for location purposes.

The stove is still available- it had to be dismantled & relocated due to the house being sold. It is posted on the FB page for CNY, as is. Anyone interested in contacting the owner for a look-see can message me for that info.
