Those things look they they smoke up the house a lot and appear to burn the wood quickly and give off heat slowly for hours.
Condensation and creosote look like it could be a problem.
The whole point of rocket mass stoves, is to burn very hot, for maximum efficiency - and almost no smoke, and no creosote. They take a fraction of the wood (1/5th to 1/10th!) and they have a higher average temperature in the building.
