Can anyone give an opinion on Reading coal? I'm going to be selling their stoves and am considering buying coal from them as well. Haven't seen much about them on this forum.
thanks

I have burned several tons of Reading and was happy with it.
Just bought 3100 pounds for this winter because I got it at a bargain price.
I like Blaschak better.
You don't say where you are. Probably makes a big difference if you are in coal country where you can buy direct from the breakers.

Like going to a supermarket....many brands to choose from, and many have favorites, so we purchase what we have been used to if there are no problems. Like 'Sting' says: Depends......

I'm in SE Michigan so I need to work a little harder to find the right supplier and the right shipping rates.
