Ran out of the good stuff this year (Vermont Wood Pellet), so I bought some McFeeters. What junk!
Tons of ash, burns inconsistently, throws sparks all over. Crazy flame that is all over the place.
DO NOT RECOMMEND!
I used these for the first time during the 2012-2013 season based on favorable reviews. I had been using Okanagan for the three prior years and really loved them. I switched because of a less expensive price, more bags on a pallet (easier for me to store), and what appeared to be great specs. WHAT A MISTAKE. These pellets were the worst! Very high ash content – I was cleaning my stove every other day. With Okanagan I could go 4 to 5 days or more with emptying ash. Also at least half the bags would develop klinkers after about 6 to 8 hours of burning. Don’t believe the specs, this is a VERY BAD product.
I purchased a half ton of these last year and they were great. This year not so much. Very high ash and fines.
Also purchased these pellets at Aubuchon Hardware. Didn’t have any funny smell. They burn clean, hot, and are not that expensive. Glass door is easy to clean. I have burned almost 2 tons of these this year and 1 ton of Okanagans. They are hotter than the Okanagans. I just purchased another ton of these today for next year while they still had them. Heat with a Enviro Empress Insert.
These pellets burn hot and are pretty clean. I also purchased these pellets at Aubuchon hardware (1 of the tons). The price was better than my usual wood pellet place for the same pellet. Glass does get dirty, but is very easy to clean. This season I have gone through 1 ton of Okanagans and am at the end of the 2nd ton of McFeeters. I am going back to buy 2 or 3 more tons for next year if I can get them. Didn’t notice any funny smells like the other post. I burn them in a Enviro Empress Insert.
