I have a chance to buy a Pillsbury stove that looks to be in good shape. I am unfamiliar with these stoves and cant find too much online about them. I have always had Tempwoods and Vermont Casting stoves before. Our hearth/fireplace is a funny shape and it looks like this will fit right in. Anybody heard of them before? good/bad/ugly? Its getting cold and I am going to need a larger stove quick as the little tempwood I bought last year didnt quite do the job.

Not much to tell. Just another dirty burning steel stove welded together in the late 70's and early 80's by hundreds of shops that all quit doing it in 1988 when the EPA emissions regulations came into being. Wood hogs that smoke a lot.
You have experience with them. It won't be any better or any worse.

Can you show a picture of the insides? Does the stove have a baffle above the main firebox? Looks like it might have a basic secondary air port for this,
