Wood pellets LWP now using balcas brites

[Toffee44]

How are these compared to LWP premium pellets?? I got on really well with them and I am gutted that they are no longer for sale on the website.

Have been using verdo for a month which are rubbish, stable smells and using a bag every 4 days as opposed to weekly with the LWP.

I used to use LWP and nearly always was sent Balcas Brites. I tried Verdo too but now use Five Star Professional and am very pleased with them.

They looked the same to me.

Are u saying u can no longer get LWP premium or can no longer get balcas? I tried Verdo and LWP, hated Verdo, and disliked LWP with 2 of my wetter horses. Went on to five star (the more expensive of their two types) and use 1/2 the amount. Have a fluffier nicer bed. Went from 3 a week LWP on wettest horse to 1 every 5 days and ponies have gone from 1-2 bags a week to 1/2 a bag each a week. I'm sticking with it as even though its a couple more £s a bag it's far cheeper each week

Just be careful if you are ordering from LWP. I have now been waiting for a delivery for over ten days, it;s looking as though I'll be lucky to get them within 14 days

They no longer do their own premium pellets.

I recommend u try five star, delivery was quick and u can get a trail amount if u want. No issues with delivery like LWP and no smelly soggy bed like Verdo

Another Five Star fan here (and another who found Verdo rubbish!) I use FS professional, they are fab!

LWP sell Brites. Pretty sure that their premium were Brites which were maybe diluted with the left over of their economy pellets when stocks ran low(hence the drop in quality)

Brites have had severe supply problems of late (which would explain the delay in delivery).

Brites available here www.steprenewables.co.uk in plain or branded packing.

Last I heard 5* weren't taking orders I've been using the Brites pellets from LWP and think they're every bit as good as their premium pellets and have never had an issue with delivery either...

Have they gone bust ? - none of their telephone numbers work and the website now has no pricing info.

No the guy that owned/ran it passed away and they just go very behind, totally understandably. As far as I know they will still trade but need a little time to get sorted.
