I love them ,my stove burn any pellet for seven days
GS are good as any other brand IMO. There has not been that much difference in any of the pellets I've used. The biggest difference I've noticed is some brands create more clinkers than others. They all create clinkers that need attention every couple days. They all create ash that needs emptied after burning a ton. They all smoke up the front window after 24 hours. Admitted I have not used Douglas Fir and maybe those burn without the side effects. Someday I'll try them after I win the lottery.

Yeah ,

Gotta disagree with some of what you said..
I don't get clinkers...

After about a week, I get a light haze on the upper right corner of the glass
that you can still see through..

They all leave ash, and most leave 'some' glass residue...
It's a question of how much.
But you don't have to use Doug Fir to get better results, compared to some
less expensive brands.. There are a LOT of really good brands out there,
only a little more expensive, sometimes the same, lately, as the BBS stuff...

We have the same P68 stove so that's incredible you get no clinkers nor smoke. You must either be burning magic pellets or your stove isn't plugged in.
 
GS are the only pellet Ive burned to give me clinkers. All smoke up my glass at some point. None as bad as my seemingly endless supply of Currans...
