    Blazers were just dumped on the market , they want to cut their loss and recoup what they can , so the dealer can sell them at a nice price ,this is a one time deal IMO .

    I was kinda disappointed with my Blazers this year. Got a few of these babies in my burn pot. Not all the time though. This is from my recent cleaning.

    I burned the Energex [green bag] for couple yrs but way too much ash..not worth 270.00
    Energex sells them to HD also.. rebagged as the Famous STOVE CHOWS.. That's when I stopped buying them.

    Ok Class.. 10334287_264993123683145_4939986383952889479_n.jpg .. here we go..
    Energex in upstate Pa makes the Blue/Green bag Hardwoods and the Golden Pellets Hardwoods.
    Energex Canadian plant makes all the Softwoods and softwood blends.

    aside from bagging many pellet brands under different names for box stores, the Energex Hardwood blue/green bag are Home depot sold Stove chows..

    That is a definitley more of a red bag when you compare the American AND Canadian brands. No one would describe them as both being green when making a comparison lol...and those Goldens are probably just them in a super premium bag. When the Super Premium scam was going on for a while.

    Red Bag??
    the Golden pellet hardwoods are a different animal...Kiln dried very clean sawdust and actually look like light softwoods.. very low ash..
    The American hardwoods I should have stated are blue/green bag.. got my colors crossed.
