But for the price they do alright. Good "shoulder pellet" as the folks say around here.
 
mwp softies are great! I liked them a lot. better than the hard or blend

newp/gs's are dirty and lack heat output in my exp. I would by something else even for more.

the softies in the 250s is a good buy.
 
Jeanine, I have found the NH plant seems to be of better quality. Those were the first three tons I had. I am on the NY plants now. With the NH plant my convection fan will run on setting one of my stove. With the NY palnts it will shut off! I have them for 2 years and from my burning experience the NH plant is better. Heat and ash wise, but still not a great pellet. I guess I will use those first, and save the other brands for when it gets really cold. Have you tried stove chow, and pres-to-logs?
 
The only thing HD around me has is nations choice and lowes has Green supreme and green teams.
 
The green teams are pretty good. I've burned a few bags of them. But they are 274/ton. If I can get the mwp softies for cheaper and than i'll go that road. I like that they are made right in the northeast too. Nations Choice has not gotten good reviews and I've had a few friends buy a ton of them and not like them at all so i'm steering clear.

o I think the green teams by me are 218 a ton, big difference.
 
Yea, I'm sure its trucking.
 
gt's are 279/ton here too... lowes is marketing them as their premium brand this year it seems. they are good, but not 'boutique price' good.

I think this is what they were doing around here last year as well. HD isn't even giving a "premium" option. They are just moving what they are getting trucked in. They HD near me had FU's for cheap, But i was a day late and a dollar short on that deal.
 
Central NH eh? You try Ashland Lumber? Thats kinda central. They MAY have MWP for a decent price.
 
They have MWP softies right in concord NH for $265/ton. I was thinking a ton of these to try this winter as well. Any reviews on these St Earl?


If you wanted to try the MWP blend I know they have them for 234.50 a ton atTractor Supply CO in Chichester but you'd have to pick them up yourself as they don't deliver. Also Benson's Lumber in Londonderry has MWP blend for $249 per ton with a flat rate $10 delivery charge if you're in their delivery area.

I was just at tractor supply the other day(close to the house). I might get a ton of the blends to try out as well.

o too bad you couldn't get the FU I heard they were really good
 
I did pick up a few bags of MWP blend at TSC the other day, but the way they store them is terrible outside and stacked on each other...not nicely either. I saw a bunch of broken bags with wet pellets spilling out...not very confidence inspiring if you're buying tons IMO. The storage and the fact that they are relatively far from me means I probably won't bother with them.

I did stumble on a something great now though, so I think I'm going to be all set :) MWP softies and they are close by at $265 a ton
 
The regular Lg's were better IMO.
 
MIB2 ;)
 
Dangit! Good movie. Actually the first 2 were good IMO. The 3rd is meh but Josh Brolin plays a great Agent K.

Dlehneman, glad you found something.
 
Just curious to hear from anyone who has tried the LG "Super Premium" (not Granules)...good, bad, worth the price? etc...

Local stove shop carries them at $325/ ton (ouch) so I bought a few bags to try but it's just not cold enough for any sort of testing yet. Interestingly they come in 30.3 lb bags instead of 40. Makes carrying them a bit easier so I guess that's good.
Just an FYI, you might want to double check the price. When I've seen LGs for sale around me, they were sold as 1.2 or 1.3 tons per pallet (can't remember the exact number). I've seen a business make the mistake of advertising an incorrect per ton price of LGs. (This is when they were selling 40lb bags though. Haven't seen the 30lb bags.)
