Declining quality
I’ve been using these pellets long term. The quality has decreased in 2021 and 2022. Some bags are just plain colder. All produce a lot more ash than earlier. Daily stove clean ups. Offset is they are the cheapest in central UP

Poor quality
Husband and myself have purchased these since the purchase of our pellet stove, but since our recent purchase have found them poor quality! We contacted customer service and was told they’ve recently started making them with tree bark. Bad choice!! These cause nothing but ash, leaving one to have to tend to the stove more frequently.. if left unattended, the ash pan overflows and will be sure to cause a house fire!!
The manufacturer seriously needs to reconsider their way of “lining their pockets” and go back to customer satisfaction!!!
We, ourselves will NEVER purchase this brand again!!!
Buyer beware!!!!!

What Happened?
I have used Vulcan pellets almost exclusively over the last 10 years. I could usually go close to 2 weeks without cleaning my burn pot. This year I cannot get through a bag without cleaning the burn pot, Cleaning every day 2 days max. Very Disappointed and wondering what happened?
