Utica Boilers
Utica has been in the boiler business a long time. They used to make boilers for a lot of different companies. My experience with Utica is "good" overall. They were (are?) a relatively inexpensive boiler. Very little steam in my area so I can speak specifly about their steamers. It seems they only make one gas fired steam boiler. http://www.uticaboilers.com/product_detail.asp?key=35

The new Burnham Megasteam is the most efficienct steam boiler on the market and has a three pass design. The Three pass design keeps all the flue gases below the water line which avoids the super heated iron which is proven to be the cause of most steam boiler failures.
