Lost of ash... black soot build up.... Had to snake the chimney in the middle of winter! Will never purchase Fireside Ultra again for my magnum t40. Best burning pellets for my magnum t40 stove was fly creek. To anybody else who posts opinions, it would be helpful to also post the brand of stove you have. That makes a difference on how these pellets burn... Purchased 4 tons of Fireside Ultra through Home Depot in September of 2010.

I have a Breckwell Stove and I guess it on depends on what type of stove you have. Too bad it takes a lot of testing before you find what is best for your stove. What is good for one apparently is not good for someone else. It’s funny I just bought 10 bags of the pellets and they were one of the best pellets I have used so far.

I had my stove on setting 4 for about and hour and there was so much ash build up that it blew through the stove where my heat comes out and filled my kitchen and living room. Had to have the fan going and the windows open to get the ash out. What a mess. Please don't buy these pellets.

The ash build up in my stove was horrible. I will never buy them again. They were by far the worst pellets I have ever bought. I did buy the other day American Wood Fiber and was quite impressed. The heat output was amazing (I had to put my stove on level 2 which I usually had on 3) and the ash ouput was minimal. So I am using less pellets and getting better heat output. So far so good.

No klinkers and I didn't notice much more ash switching from Lignetics to them. At $219 per ton vs $299 per ton for Lignetics, I certainly didn't mind having to empty my ash-vac an extra time ot two. I will look for them again next year. I burned three tons of Fireside this year with no issues. No klinkers and I didn’t notice much more ash switching from Lignetics to them.

I bought a couple bags and was expecting poor performance, but they burned great in my Harman Advance. So, I bought a couple tons and haven't had any issues, except maybe a bit more smoke on the glass vs the Lauzon Cubex pellets I used last year. I am not complaining at $209 a ton and oil now near $4 a gallon. I saw Fireside pellets for $209 at Home Depot.

Sometimes, usually soon after filling my Whitfield, I'll get back-ups that bury my firepot and smother the fire....requiring shutting it down, cleaning it out, and going through my relight process all over again. That has happened once in a while using a brand many think is one of the best on the market, Country Boy 100% oak, and happens using AWF Premium's too....that's just the quirkiness of my stove....not the pellet's fault. A stove is a machine, a mechanical device that must be mastered, especially it's quirks...and they all have them. Eric…..your complaint is with your stove, not the pellets.
