“Great place for Commercial Pits, they do a great job repairing and servicing.”

“We bought our first pit from Alan Oliver in 94 at J&R Mfg. It was a model 700. Since then we have sold the 700 and have purchased 2 model 1300's. We have been in operation since 1995 and over the past 23 years we have not been disappointed in the equipment nor the product it puts out. A true 100% wood fired pit that is second to none. H. E. Finley has been great to work”
