New stove in the design/testing phase at Woodstock Soapstone

They don't have a name for it yet, and I neglected to ask when they think it will hit the market. Thought someone might be interested to see it.

I think that's their Franklin Stove that has been on their Blog.
It kinda looks like a Blaze Kings retarded cousin. Thanks for sharing.

I'm not so sure about that one. I hope the look changes, or maybe they'll make a bunch of it optional.

The woman who showed it to me did say they were going to change the look of it, I believe. Frankly I was paying more attention to the Ideal Steel, so I'm not 100% sure about that. I agree that I'm not loving the appearance. They have a soapstone stove in their display area from the 1860's that is the model for the new stove, but I don't think they have captured the look of it yet.

Why does it have that big ashlip? Doesn't make any sense considering it doesn't have a door on the front.

And what is with the wings coming off of the front corners??

Good catch Webby! I didn't even notice that at first.

They do that sometime to reduce front clearance requirements. That's why there is an ashlip on my Progress.

Looks like they cut them off the back of a 59 caddy!

the glaring thing I see is their lab is just as cluttered up as mine is
