Randy (Photog2000) should be along soon. He's our resident Andes expert.
Otherwise, from what little info is on line, it seems the Andes 400 models are all oaks. And the 600 models may be the base heaters ?
If I remember correctly Randy's back pipe oak and double heater oak are both 500 models.

This is where the numbering system with the Andes stoves get confusing. My catalogs show even the 600 models as an oak with the option of return flue (just back pipe). They called their base heaters "full return flues". The catalog I have does not show the 400 series of stoves. Paul is right that the 500 series, is the Geneva Oak style that had either the return flue or double heater. I have the 517's, one with double heater and one with return flue. I suspect the 400 series of numbers would follow suit but not positive. It seems the ones with the Full Return Flue (BB) have names like Oakvale Andes with numbers like 141(14' pot) or 161(16" pot). The Magic Andes was a Full return Flue stove as well with an oven option. That stove has a model #35 but has a 14" pot. Sometimes the model # signifies the pot size, sometimes it does not. Like I said confusing.Sunny Boy wrote:Randy (Photog2000) should be along soon. He's our resident Andes expert.

Without seeing photos of the stove, I would be just giving a guess that the 418 is an oak style stove.

The stove makers never make it easy on us, do they ?
