I found a 100% wool rug on sale, I drape it over the top/back, and part of the front if it gets really cold and I want to try and conserve a few pellets.... if I want to open the doors, I kind of fold it up and let the excess folded part sit on the top. Being the stainless is magnetic, I had been thinking about putting some high power magnets on the top, to try and keep it from sliding off the back when I do fold it up like that... if I'm careful , it won't slide off even without the magnets, but ideally there should be some way to keep it from sliding off the back
