"Horrible pellets. My neighbor & I split 5 tons of these. By far the worst pellets either of us have ever used. Everything that has been posted in other reviews is true! Save your money, & stay away from these!!!"

Big Heat or Big Disappointment?,
December 8, 2008
By Geronimo from Bristow, VA
"I have been burning pellets as my primary source of heat for years. These pellets are by far the worst I have ever seen. They are very inefficient and extremely dirty. The bag has all sorts of random trash in it....peices of grass, wood splinters, and who knows what else. I wouldn't burn these in my stove again if they were free. They produce so much soot and ash the stove is a mess after just a couple bags and we're going through them at probably twice the rate of good pellets."

"I bought one ton of these wood pellets. I found them to be of poor quality. Approximately 1/8 of the 40 lb. bag was wood dust. I had to sain the dust from pellets to get to the good pellets. I contacted NTE and explained my concern.
I have been using a pellet stove for three years with no problems until now. Quality is important and so is the heat . A word of advice" Look around and try them before you buy pellets. NTE struck out with these wood pellets. I have no complaints on other product that I have purchased from NTE."

Price Great! Pellets Lasting Power Could Be Better,
November 14, 2008
By Kia1 from Elizabeth City, NC
"Purchased one bag of these pellets to see how long one bag would last before I purchases more. Good thing I did, they only lasted about 6-8 hours total. I burned the stove about three times at 1.5-2 hours each time. Good for a romantic night...not really great for burning to heat a house and/or room for more than a couple of hours... you would go broke long before you ever heated the house/room for one winter. I would purchase them again just knowing that they wont last long, and knowing that I would never use them as a primary source of heat...not even for one room."

Ok - but lots of fines/dust,
November 3, 2008
"I purchased just over 1 ton of these pellets earlier this year. The price was better than anyplace else - but I guess I got what I paid for.
Now with few chilly nights I fired up the stove to start using them. I've used 5 bags so far and every bag has had a lot of fines and dust in it. My style of stove drops the pellets down a tube into the burn pot (the auger doesn't push them directly in). This causes the dust to float all over the inside of the stove. The heat exchanger tubes are covered with a lot more ash & soot than normal.
The pellets are a lot shorter than other brands I've used. They also seem to crumble easier. I would guess that the type of wood they use or the pressure/heat in the pellet mill isn't as good.
I won't be buying this brand of pellets ever again."

"Great Price and a great way to heat your house. They delivered it right to our door-step. We didn't have to borrow a truck load it ourselves.
I would recommend this to everyone!!!!"
