Cost? I guess sheet steel protected by brick will be cheaper than thicker cast iron.

The manufacturers websites will give the maximum output heat; convection plus radiant so you need to find one similarly sized of each type.

Fitting a boiler instead of the firebrick has a big impact on the heat to the room and may lead to poor combustion due to low hearth temperatures.
