Camper type wood burning stove for home...
To clarify, I am not intending to put one in my camper (I do not have one anymore...) ...but, I recall an article or topic post some years ago about an upscale camper (I think it was a TC) that had...

Thanks for all the responses. And just to re-iterate, this stove would be for my home, not the camper. I only posted here because I recall smaller stoves for campers that I thought that I saw discussed here.
That said, some more information on what I am doing:
I want a smaller stove. My living room is rather small (approx 11'-6" x 16'-0".) But the existing masonry fireplace takes up an extraordinarily large footprint. I am planning to demo it (but that is another story especially for the logistics of removing from T.O. chimney to basement.)
Removing the existing will open up the room quite a bit and I want to return some sort of smaller stove... not sure what that component will be, hence me reaching out to knowledgeable sources here. It could be one of the many types out there and I will be beginning the research of which model will best suit my needs.
This is not a summer project for this year. It will take place next summer at the earliest as I need to design and plan the phasing.
I will not be considering a pellet stove. I have many cords cut, split and seasoned with many more available where I live. Whatever replacement I use will be a wood burner.
The project is not insurmountable. I do these types of design for renovations as part of my work... the only difference on this one is that I am the Client and I am the one paying for it. It is not a DIY with the help of some friends on a weekend. It will need to be planned, staged and implemented, especially the build back with minimal downtime and exposure to the elements.
