I've burned about 30 bags so far but please understand that I am not a good one to use to compare. Afterall, I'm not a pellet pig, I'm a pellet slob, and I will recklessly burn without regard to anything other than my own personal comfort. Love the stove and lust over the heat. I take those cold temps by the small sack and slap it with a dose of high end pellets. Whether it be a January deep freeze or what you guys call "shoulder season", I'm going at em with the big guns. Come on cold weather, I'm gonna kick you square in the ding-ding!

I like it......."Pellet Slob"! I wonder how Earnest would like that moniker?
 
I'm dumping my 16th bag into the hopper before I go to bed. I'm looking at about $80 in heating costs so far this fall, though I swear when pellets hit the burn pot all I hear is money ...
 
15 bags so far.
 
+2 more this morning, up to 11 now. It's getting colder here in the thriving metropolis of Meco.

That has to be the oddest post I have ever seen in a forum for pellet heat appliances. That's like going to the wood shed and hating burning wood.

Dont get me wrong I loved the pellet heat. I have an accentra that I used for three years when I believed in the industry and had to seek another alternate heat source because the industry got too greedy for my pocket. So now I am happy to say that I have not burned one bag yet.
The pellet stove is ready for whenever its needed.
Back on topic, temps have dropped drastically last week, they hover around 0-7C. Normally I would be using 1 bag every two days with these temps. (Oh yeah I used a thermostat too).

Happy burning.
 
Have burned about 20 bags of Turman, but only because my husband fires up the stove when the temps hit 67 degrees. With the temps where they are, we should have burned probably half that.
 
23 here, exactly where it was on this day last year.
 
Opened bag 9 last night, about 1/2 left in pellet bucket.
 
45 Bags, 2 stoves, no oil

Im guilty too. Any temp above 42 and my heat pump is more cost efficient than using the pellet stove.

But soon the 24/7 temps will be well in the the 30's and lower and the lil black heat box will be chugging along nonstop till sometime in late march.
 
13 bags here. We had a few weird cold nights in Sept.

14th bag in the hopper now.......0 oil for heat.....
 
10 bags so far it just won't stay cold. 70 degrees here now. 4-Old Dominions 4-Lignetics(blue) 2-Stove Chow.
 
About a ton.
