woodstove

Cabin heating appliance

A woodstove is a freestanding heating appliance that burns wood for warmth.

Unlike a fireplace built into a wall, a woodstove sits in a room and radiates heat from its metal body, typically venting through a stovepipe: We heated the cabin with an old cast-iron woodstove.

Also spelled wood stove.
