Product Information

Winner of a BBC Gardeners' World Magazine Best Buy award for the best axe for all-round wood splitting, this is a premium, quality axe. Beautifully made and well-designed, it’s very comfortable to handle and use, with a perfectly balanced weight. This, coupled with a relatively light weight of 1.3kg and a mid-length shaft of 50cm, mean this axe is large enough to be used two-handed for splitting logs up to 20cm in diameter, while also being small and light enough for more accurate precision work like making kindling. So, the higher cost of this axe is balanced out by its versatility – there’s no need to have two separate axes for two different jobs. Even pressure-treated wood will benefit from an occasional water-sealant treatment as well. Applying a coat roughly once a year will help the wood stay protected from water damage (splitting, warping, etc.). This is especially important to do after you’ve had the log store for around 5 years. Assembly doesn’t take too long – around an hour with the help of two people, though you might want to wear gloves as splinters can come off the wood whilst putting it together. There are few things more pleasant than the luxury of warming yourself by a log-burning fire in the depths of winter.

And, equally, there are few things worse than realising you don’t have wood fuel when you need it, or that the logs you do have are too damp to burn. Of course, any log store that can hold 600 logs is bound to take up a fair amount of space, and this 262 cm wide, 131 cm tall unit needs quite a large area to stand in. It’s therefore best suited to medium/large outdoor spaces, unless you don’t mind having a log store as the primary focus in your garden. Feather-edge panels allow some ventilation in but have smaller gaps between them than slats. Slats offer more ventilation, but don’t protect as well against the elements.Asda has the best log selection of all UK supermarkets. They offer a nice selection of firewood, briquettes, and kindling from several producers. Which Supermarket Has the Cheapest Logs? To help you make the right choice, we’ll compare supermarket logs from Asda, Aldi, Tesco, LIDL, and Sainsbury's. We’ll compare the logs from these supermarkets based on three criteria: quality, selection, and price.

This way the logs will be dried by the warmth of the sun and ventilation from the draft, but they won’t have rain blown directly on them when the weather is bad. With this out of the way, let’s see which supermarket sells the best logs in the UK. Are Asda Logs Any Good? You’ll want to base the size of your log store on how many logs you have. For up to 300 logs, a small store measuring around 150 x 150 cm will be sufficient . These stores will have an internal capacity of approximately 1 m³ and are ideal for a small garden. A larger log store, with a capacity of 1.5 m³ or more, will be better suited to a large garden and will hold at least 450 logs. In terms of construction, this log store is a bit more interesting than the others featured here – it’s made from the wood of a Nordic Spruce (more commonly seen in its original tree form at Christmas!), which is generally stronger than pine. Log stores keep logs protected from the worst of the weather, helping firewood stay dry so that it’s ready to use when you want it. Choosing the Right Size Log StoreIf your logs are close to hand in a log store, you’ll find it easier to prepare your log-burning fire or stove and keep it burning. It can be very easy to just keep a small supply of wood by the fireplace, but once it’s been burnt you might be tempted to pop the heating on. A log store will allow you to store more firewood close to the house, so you won’t have to go far to get more in. It’s constructed from FSC-approved wood that has been pressure treated, so it’s equipped to stand up to our versatile UK climate. The supportive posts are solid and large, at 7.6 x 7.6 cm, and the feather-board edge fits together well; it’s a sturdy, well-ventilated structure that helps keep logs dry. The best log store will be made from pressure-treated wood, reducing the risk of rot and insect infestations. It should be raised off the ground, with slatted or feather-edge panels to provide adequate ventilation. An overhanging roof is useful to look out for, to protect your firewood from wind and rain. Also, unlike most other stores, the roof has a protective felt covering which adds an extra waterproof layer. The wood construction itself is fir and plywood, and seeing as the holes are already drilled, it’s pretty easy to put everything together in under an hour using just a screwdriver.
