The two Menards stores around me only have Magic Spark, it was on sale a month ago, but now its back up to $4/bag or so.

Does any other chain in Northern OH carry Somerset?

I did get a couple bags of Hardwood Heat, i.e. Hamers, from a tractor supply store in Defiance, OH, but they seemed to make clinkers pretty badly.

Around me, there are several stores that carry Somersets. There is a Farm and Hardware store that has them, along with the Menards in Ontario (Mansfield) and the Menards in Massillon.

After 3 yrs of burning them side by side with Pro Pellets (used Pro Pellets exclusively my 1st year, through dealer). I have finally realized that if I wait long enough, someone will have a good sale and I can stock up.

Last year, there was talks of Fiber shortages and price hikes. So I bought whatever burned good, that was at a good price (got 9 ton in 3 months, never spent over $190 for 1 of the ton). So I have plenty of fuel to sit on and wait for "bargain" deals on Somersets. So far I have 2 ton stashed. Trying not to burn them. But I plan on buying Somersets exclusively. Unless there is a great deal on Pro Pellets (or any Fiber by Products pellet brands).

If you can find some, I would suggest trying them out. They are a good, low ash, high heat, and consistent fiber pellet. IMO
