    Of course price and quality doesn't always go together.

    The name of the game is best quality for the lowest price.

    i remember posting they left the hardest speedbumps in the universe a few years ago.

    btw: very satisfied with the EzBlaze super premos this winter..
    my only tick is they do have lot of fines but, they burn up along with the pellets.
    good price at Bucks for a super hot softwood...scrape the burnpot once a week now..very clean.

    Burning up the last 1/2 ton or so of the Inferno's I got for $100/ton a couple of years ago during the fire sales. Pretty ashy but decent heat for this time of year.

    TSC bagged MWP grab 10 bags or so when I can for now. Good for shoulder pellets, just a bit more cleaning.

    Burning Crabbe right now-maybe an hour a day though. For me they are a great shoulder pellet that can be used into the cold season too.
