Reading is a well and long known name in the hard coal world.
Stoves of recent were well fabricated, but some had flawed design features built in.
One flaw was flat plate baffle that could accumulate fly ash on top to the point of restricting/blocking the stove outlet on a couple models if not checked often..

I wonder if that means places that sold Reading stoves will now handle Keystokers?
