Somersets in 'da house...pig stash ready for winter.

Kingston NY lowes got a truck load in on Monday. Friend got 2 tons, another friend got 4 tons and I got 4 tons. wife said 11.5 tons is enough LOL

....hard to resist at 209,... im starting to shake,,,

Guarded by two (2) highly trained and hungry Rottweilers,.. and one half crazed old guy with several guns.

Any reports of seeing them in Ct?, weird how they are near the Cape, jumped around us!!

Lovin' the Mustang OMV...Better add that one to the stable!

Heard of some Somersets at Lowes in NW CT,. check here http://www.hearth.com/talk/forums/wood-pellet-pricing-reports.29/

Where?-Where? You got my attention!

I can't find it, What page did you see it on?

Old wives' tales. I stored two tons of Barefoot on two pallets, outdoors for almost two years and had 0 issue. I kept the original pallet plastic cover on and over-wrapped them each with a tarp and tied off with straps.

Yeah, I got two tons of Somersets left over from 2010 when I snatched them in Eastern CT. Burned the Green Team and Fireside Ultra last year to save the good stuff, and saved another ton of Barefoots from 2009. Putting dates with pellets reminds me of picking out wines!

So this is my first year using a pellet stove and after much research and forum reading I have realized that of all the Pellets available to me the overwhelming favorite are the Somersets. I also know that i should buy a few bags of each before buying in bulk(shame on me), BUT With that being said I have found Somersets after MUCH.....and I mean MUCH searching and decided to get 2 Tons. With shipping = $488. So if they suk I have seen several posts where people are offering to take them and even pick them up(I will keep that in mind). But at $488 for 2 tons it sure beats filling up my 1000 gallon oil tank 3-4 times a year so I'll take my chances. I may be a pig just yet. Guess we'll just have to wait and see. I'll just consider myself a piglet for now

I bought 7 tons on a whim, i never even seen a somerset pellet yet. Im sure youll be fine.

Geez,.. now I cant find the thread JT, thought there was a guy on here from Stockbridge area who was getting Sets from Lowes,... Im sure youve looked plenty!!... sorry.

Paul, I did the same thing. I was trying to do my due diligence, and try different pellets. But, everyone seems to love the Somersets, so when I saw them, I jumped at the chance to buy three tons. I'll probably still buy a few bags of this and a few bags of that to try as I go along in case I am unable to find Somersets again.

Sounds like a good plan. Better to know whats out there a head of the buying season. Its a good pratice IMHO. Keep us posted on the those Somersets!

Will do. First bag in the hopper (or hoppah depending on where you are in NE)!

Well. They are finally here. Just finished moving them into my garage. Didn't look like that much until I started moving em.

Here are the other ones

Nice! Which store did you find them at?

Lowes in Newburgh! Ordered them on Wednesday. Delivered this morning.

Love the Somersets.. burning them now.. picking up two more tons in a week of Somersets... about 220 a ton..

Wish I could find some Somersets in my area. My local Lowes has presto-logs and HD has Stove Chow.

Nice! Still no stove, but I'm ready when it gets here!

They must have gotten another shipment in since I picked mine up the other week. Bet their all gone already!

Yup! When I called they had gotten in 20 tons that Monday. I called Wednesday and ordered mine. By Thursday they were gone.

As of yesterday newburgh lowes still has somersets
