Have burned many different brands and the Rocky mountains are the worst did not buy last year thought i would try them again this year. Never again will i buy them and i burn about 5 tons per year.. Do not buy them!!!
I have to agree with the most recent posts. I’ve used Rocky Mountain pellets for severals years with decent results. This season, they are awful. I have to shut the stove down every day to clean the ash and clinkers out of the burn pot, as well as the black soot on the glass due to the restricted airflow through the burn pot. I actually tried 6 bags of their supposedly lower quality Eco-Flame pellets from the Home Depot, and I had far better results. I’ll be looking for another brand of pellets for next season.
We have an older model Quadra-Fire stove. We have used it for 18 years and burned several brands of pellets, including Rocky Mountain pellets in the past. This year we bought 2 tons of Rocky Mountain super premium. We are into the second ton and they are one of the worst pellets we have used in all these years. They build up a huge amount of clinkers in the firepot. There is lots of ash also. We are very disappointed. They used to be very good pellets.
Last year (2016) these were amazing; low ash and great heating times were the norm. We got 20 more bags in November at Murdoch’s and crap what a terrible downturn. We’re 18 bags in and we’re cleaning out the ash bin every other bag plus it isn’t burning nearly as long per bag. The 18th bag held over 1/2 gallon of mis-shaped, clumping bits of woody crude and the pellets themselves were crumbling allover.
We figure it is like wine where the quality controls are up to the company, but the next 20 bags will make us decide if Rocky Mtn. is still our go-to brand.
Last year I purchase 2 tons of the Rocky Mountain pellets. They performed very well…as advertised. This year I started with just one ton, and wow am I glad I did not purchase the usual amount. Using These pellets cause me to have to clean my stove every day and dump ashes twice per week. The amount of ash produced is horrible. Plus the stove is getting soot build up that has never happened in the past.
Oh my goodness, this brand is not on top any longer. I have been using another brand for the last 3 years. I found this brand (which I might add is more expensive then the normal brand that I have been using) again at Tractors Supply. I was wondering why the extra soot, then saw that the pellets were not all uniform and just pieces (which make more in the burn pile, which creates a larger flame and makes my stove too hot to touch on top – which has never happened before). I also noticed moisture and clumps. I am so disappointed and so happy that I did not purchase a whole pallet. I think I will be returning the bags that I have not used yet to Tractors Supply (which is not their fault). I also plan on contacting the company.
Rocky mountain pellets have dramtically gone down in quality they produce more clinkers this year then previously. I was sold on the quality about 4 years ago but now im looking on the hunt for a better brand. They has something special and better at one point but now something has changed in production for sure. Now to find the new best…
These pellets are absouluty horriable, they have clumps and moisture in the bag. I will never buy tjis brand again. I am having to clean my stove every 2 days abd my stive is running horrable. I wouls not recommend anyone to buy these pellets.
These are the WORST pellets ever! Not only a lot of soot & having to clean out my stove EVERY OTHER DAY, now my stove won’t burn right! I’m going to have to call a pro to come & fix my stove! Thanks for nothing! Buying your cheap pellets is going to cost me a lot of money!
The quality of these pellets have dropped dramatically. I have to clean out clinkers everyday. There is alot more ash, and I don’t think as much heat value. I have been burning these since they started and was the first to bring them to Casper, WY. Won’t buy them agian.
