The chimney sheep has blocked out the cold draft and noise from the wind coming down the chimney.
The advice and questions were responded to promptly and honestly from the company. The smallest chimney sheep was still to big but seems to be doing the job.
Delighted with the impact.

Great Product
What a great product, fits perfectly and works really well. The extension pole gave the right height and overall, I am very pleased with the product and customer service.

Brilliant invention
I live in the west of Scotland so rain is often in the air. This is great for dry days when there’s a chance of showers - now I can put a washing out, cover it up and relax. The washing has to be hung in what I regard as reverse order - towels in the middle and smalls on the outside in case of driving rain. It only takes a couple of minutes at most to get it in place and remove.

I have ordered this product twice now as it does exactly what is says it will do. Used it in my veg beds and literally had no weeds come through. It breaks down really well over time and easy to plant through. Will definitely order more !!

Useful and inexpensive addition
So that you don't have to wriggle into the flue if and when you need to remove or insert uour chimney sheep, you can buy extensions to the pole that is used to push the sheep into place. An ingenious solution to a mucky problem!

The worms are working hard
First of all the composter is extremely well made with lots of care taken in the delivery. I put it in a raised bed and it has taken a couple of weeks for the worms to take hold and begin their work but now I can see progress. I love it, as do the worms, I might well buy another 🪱

WOW!
Got four of these for my indoor plants as I have a black thumb and frequently forget to water them. They work exactly as advertised and are great for keeping the plants happy. Overjoyed with the quantity of wool I received with these as well - keen to use it to stuff things I make and to cover the outdoor greenery. Thank you, Chimney Sheep! 🐑 🌱

Needs website instructions
Here are my tips for how to use 'A Useful Bit of Insulation' for soundproofing and insulating a chimney flue.
I found that a Chimney Sheep alone did not stop wind noise echoing down the chimney flues x2.
There’s no advice on the website on quantity to use.
Quantity I used:
1. I bought 1kg per chimney flue.
2. I divided my 1kg of wool into 2x 500g bundles.
There aren’t any instructions on this website so I had to work out what to do myself.
Initially I put half of the wool: 500g, up the flue wrapped up into a loose ball in cotton fabric. This was to make the bundle easier to handle in what is a tricky manoeuvre standing in a fireplace.
I used a broom to push it up (I’m not tall).
- But there was still wind noise on windy days.
I realised I’d need to use 1kg per chimney flue.
3. Improvising, I put 500g amounts of wool into square pillowcases (bought cut price M&S cotton ones).
4. I cut 4x tiny holes and threaded string through to tie up the bundles and leave dangling strings (for ease of removal of bundle in future if required).
5. Thus, each flue has 1kg in 2 bundles of 500g wrapped in cotton pillowcases.
I’ll see how it goes through the winter months for sound and heat insulation.

Ironing board pad
Great value and quality. Very good to iron on, much better than the thin foam which left a mark on clothes from the ironing board. Would highly recommend.

Just what I was looking for. 1Kg goes a long way. Quick delivery
A large number of composts still contain peat. he use of peat in compost comes at huge environmental cost, from the destruction of habitats, to the release of huge amounts of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gasses. We think it’s time we took the leap to entirely peat-free compost – let us tell you why!
The environmental price tag of laundry is rather hefty. Washing machines, driers and heated towel rails guzzle electricity, while chemical laden detergents wreak havoc on aquatic environments. Our comprehensive guide to swaps and changes you can make to ensure your laundry routine is as environmentally friendly as possible!
