I'm new to the forum and pellet stoves. I just installed an England Stove Co. 25 EP last weekend. I've been visiting this forum and doing pellet research on the net since then. I discovered that I live only 12 miles from the manufacturing plant of the Michigan Pellet Co. http://www.michiganwoodpellet.com/order.cfm Does that mean that I live in Hog Heaven ? Gotta be lucky to live that close to a pellet manufacturer that allows pick-up at the plant. Does anyone have any experience with their product ?
 
Based on reviews here and the couple bags I burned 2 yrs ago, I say there not that great. But thats my opinion. Others may love them. Buying from the plant is probably a lot cheaper too. Best thing to do, is to try a few bags 1st. Before you commit to a large quantity.
 
I'd try a couple of bags for the heck of it. Specially if you can score them for a reasonable price.

My experiance on them is here somewhere. They burned OK, But pretty dirty overall. Ash was light and fluffy but more than I normally see on average. Heat was slightly below avarage. But if score for a cheap price I'd burn them. We dont see them around here all that much anymore. Most dealers stopped selling them due to the large number of complaints.
