I decided to jmp on the bandwagon also.  Sent for my free samples today.  I have plenty of kindling since I have 3 siler maples in my yard.  If anyone has silver maples you know what I mean.  I am looking forward to trying the supercedar starters.  Maybe I can even get my better half to fire up the stove now, she’s always leary of messing with it.

When my wife watched how easy this made firestarting, she was all over them! They are awesome. I don’t care what anybody is using; these are the best. Period!

Thomas,
  Tried one of my samples last night. Worked out great. I broke the piece in half. It burned for about 30 minutes. Did exactly as the video says. A log on either side of the super cedar and two on top.  Fire got started with no effort. Thank you, these are what I am looking for when it comes to starting a fire at 6AM. Quick and easy.

Thomas,
Is there any expiration date on them? Would they last until next season?

Just posting again, not on the cedar starters, but on the service this time. Just have to say Kudos to you for great service as well!!! I got my samples so fast after requesting them and today my box of 100 arrived. Great service on a GREAT product!

I used half a starter Fri and the other half last night.
Great product!!  It’s nice to be able to touch off the starter, close the door, open my lower vents and know that it will keep burning long enough to catch the wood.
I’ll be placing my order this week…

Super Cedars, as Thomas told me in a weak moment, are a delight to the five senses. Since he did not elaborate, I have to assume:

You can touch and feel them.
They smell very nice
The red cedar color is a sight to behold
You can hear the fire pop and burn when it starts quickly
You can taste the good BBQ when you start it using Super Cedar.

I was only weakened from continued abuse in your booth at HPBA.

I’m curious as to what ELK did with his samples!

He dipped them in Sam Adams, ate them (one of the 5 senses) and then let out a Cedar burp (another of the sense - olfactory)

I was at the local Fred Meyers today and was surprised at the size of their fire stuff section. Two whole shelves dedicated to firestarters, fatwood. logs, duraflames, etc. There at the end were some super cedar packages. I picked up a box fof 8 for $6.99 and started the fire tonight with a chunk. They kind of look like Gainesburgers dog food. I broke off about a third, and split that in half. Stuck the chunks on top of a little newspaper between two parallel logs and then placed another diagonally on top with a couple oak flooring scraps tepeed on top. Lit the newspaper and walked away for a glass of wine. Came back and the fire was starting nicely. Fifteen minutes later a nice blaze is going.

No muss, no fuss. They work as advertised. My wife will love them. Though you might want to keep them away from the pooch.

Another vote for these amazing little firestarters. Got the samples last week, ordered 100, got them yesterday. Have used just a quarter of one to start a fire with some kindling to break in the new stove. Have been buring wood for 30 some years and have never seen anything quite so handy and good. Great product and makes the closet smell pretty decent too.

Just got my samples, and tried a small chunk of one last night…...  Great product!!!!  I’ve never used any sort of starter before, other than newspaper & kindling.  I’ll definantely be placing an order this week.

You guys keep using 1/4’s and Thomas will have to downsize!

Well, I guess it sure beats using none at all…...one thing for certain, if we put the gang here in charge of National Energy Policy, we could save 1/2 (or 3/4) -
