My parents are in their 80's and they still use a wood stove to heat their house. They originally did it to save money, but my mom also likes it because she is subject to getting chilled and she likes the fact that she can sit right next to the stove and get heated up quickly. You can't get that from standing over a heater vent.
they live in a split level house and the stove is at the bottom of the stairs so the heat just naturally rises up to the main level of the house.
