Thank you in advance. I took a leap of faith based on some folks experiences documented here and picked up 4 tons ($930 total). Would appreciate all feedback. Hope everyone is having a good start to Fall.

Could you reveal where you bought the Somersets from? I would like to try them.

I burned 3 tons last year. Great pellet, on par with Bearfoot but not as long/no excessive crunching. Ashier than your DF's and Super Premium Softies but I would say they are one of the better if not best 100% hardwood pellet out there. I can't believe Lowes hasn't raised their price like they did with GT.

Boy I like the price, and from everyone's opinion I feel pretty good about the heating performance expected

Burned a ton 2 years ago. Got them at Lowe's for 199. Best pellet I have ever burned. Unfortunately no one has carried them locally since.

These are great pellets. Could not get them this year so had to order a tractor trailer load this year to get my fix. I have my stash for the 2014-2015 winter and 2015-2016 winter. 3 tons moved inside by stove have to move 2 more tons to be set for winter. 6 tons stashed for 15-16 winter. cost was 235 a ton
Thanks oliveone. I sent you a message regarding that. Interested in discussing further. Thanks for bringing that up.

Hello rhody & olive.
I sure like the way you buy pellets. Would you be able to quote loaded cost per mile for delivery.
I have a group that would like to know, for the price of several different brands.
thanks for the help

Hello Rhody:
Have you heard what the cost for a truck load of pellets per loaded mile is?
Thanks

That sounds damn good compared to the price per ton on Barefoot which were my first pellet last year.
I plan on keeping a log this season on temps, refilling, bags per week/ month etc. I'll keep you all posted. Have a good week.
Go to the Hopkins Hill exit off 95. Head into Coventry. Make a left on Tiogue and tractor supply is on your right about a 1/2 mile down the road.
$240 per ton last time I was there. Per bag is higher. If my memory is right that was with a $10 discount for the ton, I think they're 4.98 per bag. Call them to confirm.

I picked them up at TSC in Coventry, RI. They're gone, but I've also heard of them available at Lowes in Mass lately. Good luck!
