The main issue for me is the dust that accumulates from the little bit of ash in the air that I get from cleaning the stove. However even with this building up on the Xbox it doesn’t seem to cause an issue. Long term who knows but the ps4, which I had for a while, was still working when I unhooked it
I’ve had my series x in our living room for a few years and before that a ps4 for 4-5 years. We have a wood stove and both consoles would accumulate overtime some dust inherent to using the stove. I never had any issue with the performance of either but each situation is going to be different when dealing with wood stoves.
