No. MDF is full of pretty nasty chemicals (and it takes a lot to make me say that!). It's one of the substances that doesn't belong on a domestic fire.0 -

I found a supplier today that delivers in my area every Thursday so have ordered 3 bags of premium Columbian at £7.38 for 25kg inc del. he advised that was the best one as it burns hotter, longer and cleaner, he also co firmed that I am not in a smoke free zone so I'll give it a go and hopefully save some money.
