Overview

Pinnacle is a "Classic" theme built before the WordPress Block editor was created. While it supports the block editor, it wasn't built to be optimized for the block editor (because the block editor wasn't created). Pinnacle is a bold theme with a versatile theme options panel for multiple styles. Its fully responsive layout makes for easy navigation on mobile/tablet displays. Pinnacle is fully compatible with woocommerce and gives you a unique layout for an e-commerce site.

Support

I installed the free Pinnacle based on all the reviewers that mentioned the great support for the free version, but afterwards in checkin the Kadence site it notes: “Our Support forums are open to customers who have purchased a premium version of our themes. To post a support question visit our support forums.” So sadly no support found.
