We have been buying the kiln dried logs from WOOF since last year for both
the hotel and our own use. There is no spitting and sparking from the logs
when alight which is very important, they light easily and give out lots of
heat.
Excellent prompt service from William, competitively priced and a great
product. We are happy to recommend WOOF Wood Fuel.

I have been buying wood pellets for a central heating boiler from WOOF for
the past year. William always un-loads and stacks the pellets in the shed.
The whole service from WOOF is quick, helpful and friendly.
I wouldn't buy pellets or other wood fuel from anywhere else.

I have a Rayburn Royal solid fuel cooker. This is the main source of heat
for the house and so runs 24/7 in the winter, or we all freeze. I used
Heatabix first and it burns very well. Then I used Woofers, a bit more
expensive, burn equally well and seem to last just a bit longer. With the
flue down at 1" and the spin wheel open just about 1/8 of a turn they tick
over pretty well without roasting us all out of the kitchen and being wood
respond pretty quickly if you need to stoke things up a bit before cooking.
I like the smell and won't miss the the coating of black dust which seems
to settle on everything. Cost-wise if I order by the full pallet I can run
it for the same price as Anthracite with the obvious ecological benefit. I
still keep staring at the ash pan wondering if it's ever going to collect
anything!
Many thanks for popping in to see us this week, we've been using the
Heatabix sample on a stove and are very impressed. So we would like to take
a full pallet. Just chatting to customers this week they have generated a
fair bit of interest.

I had a brand new wood burning Rayburn cooker installed in my thatched
farmhouse last year. In spite of living near a large woodland I found it
very difficult to get enough hot water or central heating because of a lack
of dry logs. I was about to have the thing removed, then I tried WOOF!. At
first I had 10 packs of Heatabix, then 10 more and then 10 more until I
ordered a full pallet. As I live close enough this was delivered and neatly
stacked in my garage whilst I was out at work. An excellent service. I have
also used Blazers fuel logs for the Rayburn and open fire.
Now we have ample hot water, hot radiators and a cosy kitchen. If you want
to meet a man who knows his job give William a call.

We've been using Woof since our Aga stove was installed last autumn. Very
happy to recommend Woof to anybody and everybody. We've tried virtually all
the products and love them all, very spoilt for choice, can't pick a
favourite but would recommend them ALL!!!! They're all extremelly
efficient, very warm with little ash. We rarely use our central heating
system as a result! Good prices and prompt delivery too. What more could
you ask for? 11 out of 10.

I use 35cm kiln dried hard wood logs for my new Esse woodburning range
cooker.It has been a problem getting a large bulk bag of logs delivered in
the past.Woof woodfuel repacked the bulk bag in to barrow bags for me and
the delivery driver who was very nice and helpfull,wheeled all the bags
around to our(Certainly Wood) log store.This seems a much better way of
getting a large quantity of logs.I will save the bags to return with our
next order!I also use Heatabix and Bark logs with great results.

Just got home on this lovely wet friday evening feeling all damp and cold.
So need some instant heat! Thats now not a problem in our house since we
started to use the kiln dried logs from Woof on our open fire. All it takes
is a few pieces of kindling and the Kiln dried logs and you have an instant
fire and instant heat!! It couldn't be easier! We quite often don't get
home till early evening after work, school and tending to the horses so
being able to light the fire so easily and get instant heat is a real
treat. The logs are all a perfect size too, so none of the hard work
involved with having to chop them down like you have to do with other logs
you can buy. And there is hardly any ash to empty eihter. Again this is a
real help in our very busy household!
Thanks William for all your help in choosing the right logs for me to use.

We have a Dovre 250 Multi-fuel stove and only discovered WOOF! this year.
We have tried almost all of the products and the two we find the best for
our stove are Kiln Dried Logs and Bark Logs (Lionels). Having said that,
the Heatabix works well and we still use Rastafire and Straw Logs
occasionally. Lighting the kiln dried logs couldn't be easier, one
firelighter does the trick and within 15 minutes I can shut down the
airflow and it's away. The 'Lionels' are amazing - I put one on the glowing
bed of kiln dried before going to bed, and without exception the fire has
been alight next morning and then just a matter of adding some more wood
for daytime burning. The longest I have left a single 'Lionel' is 11.5
hours and it was still alight! Wind strength does have some effect on our
stove but for most of the time, once the fire is burning we have the
primary and secondary air inlets closed. We will never go back to using
coal. With these WOOF! products the inside of the fire is much cleaner and
the glass front of the stove remains clean for over a week, compared to
half a day with coal! Heat output is more predictable with these products
and for most of the time one or two logs burning together are sufficient to
keep our room lovely and warm.
Finally, a big thank you to William for spending time going through all the
products with us, and with regard to the staff at the warehouse at Chard
Junction - they are brilliant!

Have just tried the Straw Logs and they are working a treat in our
clearview-style wordburning stove. With a bit of fine-tuning to get the
airflow right they last for a couple of hours and produce heaps of heat.
Lovely stuff!
Will couldn't have been more helpful with processing the order, either.
We'll be back for more next winter...

What a wonderful site!! very informative. I am a new multistove owner
Harmony 23 and just gone through my first winter on coal. What a mess!! its
ruined my glass and am waiting to have a new one fitted. have just taken
delivery of my Blazer order and next mnth will be ordering "lionels" in
preperation for the winter. I will also be ordering a pallet of kiln dried
logs towards the end of the summer. I am really looking forward to this
winter after reading all the advice on your site i cant wait to get
going...(properly this time) My stove is my only source of heat and it was
costing me a fortune trying to keep it going all night with coal and the
fumes when first lit were not at all pleasant. I hope we win the world cup
and have a fab summer....but roll on winter...thank you Woof

I have a Morso multi fuel burner. My fuel storage space is rather limited
so find the easy storage of the eco logs useful. It is reassuring that I
can order half pallets and know that they are delivered within the week and
the delivery guys are really good. I have passed the Blazer logs onto
friends who have open fires, as well as burners, and all have been
impressed with the heat they produce and how clean they are. The glass on
the log burner needs little or no cleaning. Will's warning that they do
need breaking (sharp tap on a brick edge or another log) as they expand
quite a bit when burning, is well worth remembering. Like Carol and Colin,
I also use the Bark logs when I want to keep a fire ticking over for some
time. They also help keep an open fire in for longer as well.

Hi Will just an update on my newfound skills of keeping the fire in
continuously. Good quality fuel...thats it basically. My kiln dry logs have
arrived and getting a good bed of hot wood before turning the stove down to
either 1 for wood or off completely for "lionels"and it will tick along
nicely through the night,firing up the next day beautifully,get it going
for a couple of hrs before work and either wood or lionels again will keep
the house toasty till I get home. My fire has been on continually since
1/10 and the glass stays clean. A quick wipe with a damp cloth every now
and then and Bobs your uncle!!! Thankyou all at Woof wood for a fab service
Dear Woof,
I had a nice stove/cooker installed (Windy Smithy's c.5kw 'Henry Ranger')
by the Robert Neave of Templecombe (excellent HETAS registered installer).
I was disappointed with the heat output from some well seasoned ash and oak
(four years under cover) and the oven wan't really hot enough. The firebox
is tiny and so limits the amount of split log wood you can load in. I tried
the Verdo wood briquettes and the stove loves them. I never imagined it
would get that hot but the heat is consistent and controllable - perfect
for cooking. I can get three briquettes in quite easily which gets the oven
plenty hot enough for baking or roasting. Another feature of the these
briquettes that I like is that, due to their square section, they don't
roll away which can be a problem if you live on a hill. Thank you, a great
solution to heating and cooking. I reccomend these briquettes!

Hi Will, so glad I found your site and gave you a call! Had a Morso
Panther fitted recently and after much anticipation was desperate having
used well seasoned mixed hardwoods. I could not get the stove to kick out
more than 275F and was finding only 1C rise in room temperature and was
constantly feeding the thing. After reading everywhere that the morso
kicked out masses of heat, I felt I had made a costly mistake. However,
have just tried the heatabix, blazers, woofers and bark logs last night.
What a difference!!!! Straight up to 400F which is where it stayed. Am
spoilt for choice they were all so good, heatabix so easy to use and kept
glowing for hours, blazers kicked out masses of heat, and the bark log was
an amazing long even burner. Thank you so much for the excellent advice
and service we will now be toastie with our stove.

Just a very quick thank-you mail for the delivery today. I was delighted
to return home and see the pellets all piled up in the shed and the key
posted back through the front door as per my instructions. I hope the
directions weren't too difficult to follow.
Please thank your driver from us, we're extremely pleased to have taken
delivery before the anticipated cold snap!

Hi, just a quick message to say how pleased I am with your service &
products. I placed the order by phone yesterday afternoon and the pallet
was delivered this morning. Perfect. I've also been unsucessfully
attempting to heat a 2 bedroom historic terraced house solely with
kiln-dried logs (not yours) for about 1 month, without success. As you
suggested, the Blazers are incredibly efficient!! Not only are the main
rooms now warm, other radiators well down the chain are heating-up and even
the hot water tank is getting some additional heat! Briliant - I'm now
looking forward to spending a cosy Winter! Many thanks. John

I have just taken delivery of some Joiners Nuts and Bark Logs.
I tried the Nuts and WOW... massive heat, quick to light and long
burning... opened the stove to pop a couple more in and nearly lost my hair
LOL. I let those die down in order to eagerly try out a bark log - yes I
know they're for overnight but I'm impatient to try my new treasure.
Popped one on an hour ago and it's doing very nicely and the heat output is
perfect for my already-warm narrow boat.
Didn't expect delivery this side of Christmas having only ordered a couple
of days ago. The lorry driver was really lovely too.
Thank you! You've secured my custom for the future.

Those things that look like Farley's Rusks are the absolute business. They
give out so much heat it's incredible.
PS your kiln dried logs that we got as a bonus are fantastic too.

Hi Will,
Just to let you know, we got the lump charcoal and I used it Monday for the
first time. It is awesome, I'm very happy with it, and will definitely be
ordering some again.

A quick thank you for your help and efficiency with my order. I very much
appreciate being able to try out all the various options available being
new to the whole stove experience!
The delivery driver was great too phoning me just before he was about to
arrive.
So far we've used a blazer which lasted the whole evening and a Bark Log
which was just about still going after 9 1/2 hours.
Collection is by arrangement only from our warehouse in South Chard, Somerset.
