My Avalon Rainier 90's one drawback, from the get go, was that it didn't have (and still doesn't have.......lol) a side door for side loading.
I remember considering the value of that, and thinking that I'd like that, but in retrospect, I'll never know just how valuable it may have been to have chosen one WITH that feature.
Could those of you who use a side-loading stove (obviously you can load from the front as well), talk a bit about the lessons you've learned with side loading? Has it really been THAT much of a "plus" or is that all hype. Is it "6 of one, half a dozen of another" or what?
What advantages do you find with it, or has it turned out to be more of a pain in the Glutimus Maximus?
