Hi there - 

I agree.  The Origo is hot and safe.  When we got our Alberg I thought about
refitting the pressure stove for about 3 minutes then float tested it (in
the dumpster of course)  One of my first jobs after University was running
the warrantee side of a large Canadian marine wholesale/retail operation - I
saw a lot of unhappy people trying to get those stoves to work.  They CAN
work, and I am sure that many people like them but there are better
alternatives these days.

I built a recessed plywood box for the Origo in the hole the pressure stove
was in - works great.
