Eco logs...

[Swedishchef]

Hey guys

Well, I just purchased 26 boxes of Eco logs. I decided to give them a try. I will be using only one at a time with other woods. Here's what I purchased...

A few people i know around here burn them things. Guy says its easier for his wife to load that way. Dont think its for me though, I love the work end of scrounging cutting heck I like it all.

My local Aubuchon sells those, I bought a couple boxes to try, they're ok if you dont have enough seasoned wood.

I recon they will burn If Your Too Lazy to Work (or busy) to get your Firewood.

I am too lazy to work. I find them at the right price and they are gonna be here. Unfortunately the few sold around here are crap from what I hear. Oh well.

There is a place that sells them here. I forget the price, but it was too much. I have to be under $200/cord for it to be cheaper to heat with wood than with gas.

In my situation, no matter what I burn (eco logs or wood for that matter), I burn because I enjoy it. The financial gain of burning is in fact a loss in my case. I am slowly realizing that to get my money's worth from my stove and chimney will take FOREVER. I simply enjoy being a bit independant from the electricity company and enjoy the nice heat.

I told my wife this morning that I purchased 26 boxes (it was the max amount allowed per customer) and she was like "what the hell..why don't you try 1 box before buying the other 25!". To which I replied " because the sale ended today!". I figure that 9 pressed wood logs for $5 is not a bad deal...I could be wrong! I also presume it will have barely any moisture content, therefore, limiting creosote buildup?

I presume you simply burn 1-2 logs with a bit of wood in an EPA stove??? I have read many threads on this forum that recommend against loading with 4-5 logs.

I attached a picture of the flyer.

FYI..LOL. I am not too lazy to work. I work 40 hours a week, have a 2 year old, new house (finishing garage), kid on the way in 2 months AND try to cut/split firewood (I have no atv, no tractor, no splitter! I do it all by hand..and a wheelbarrow!).
