Blazers Fuel Logs-Anyone Use Them?

wilko1010

On our quest to save a bit more money I have found Blazers Fuel Logs but before I order a few bags I wondered if anyone uses them or has tried them.

We are currently using Phurnacite in our multifuel stove which is costing quite alot at £18.50 per bag but does burn for ages and is smokeless.

The Blazers Fuel Logs say it equates to about 5.8p per kwh which is much cheaper and it looks a fairly clean fuel.

Any thoughts much appreciated.

we don't use smokeless fuel so can only compare to wood and coal - and we only buy a bag of fuel logs occassionally. It is a very clean fuel and they burn cleanly down to a fine ash. The logs expand with the heat, so need to break if you have a small stove. They don't spit which is great if you ever like to have your stove open. Have found them to be very much hit and miss in terms of the amount of heat generated - I guess they are a mixture of woods so some burn hotter than others. In terms of sheer ease of storage, use, and cleaning up after they would definitely be my preference. In terms of cost and heat generated - I prefer wood.
