Title: Nice idea... would be better if it worked
Product review: I bought these at Lowe's as a cheaper and more environmentally-friendy alternative to Duraflame and other logs. With most other logs, you simply light the wrapper and you're done. Not so with the Enviro-Log. You need to remove the wrapper and use it as kindling in order to get the log to light. The log itself is composed of recycled waxed cardboard. Unfortunately, the wax seems to be pretty fire-resistant. It has taken a major effort every time just to get the log to light, and then usually a small portion of the log will burn for a while and then go out. I've also tried dousing it with lighter fluid, and sometimes even this is not terribly helpful. Needless to say, having to add extra kindling and even resorting to lighter fluid completely negates any supposed environmental advantages of this product. It's just another "green" product that isn't. Not recommended.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
