2018 Top Sellers

For your information and planning, here are the Top Ten Sellers, based on units sold, for our main categories of products. The percentages shown for the Top Five are compared to the total for those in the top ten, not overall.

Like last year, a quick analysis shows

• That within our Gas Logs category, FireBalls were huge (both Vented and Vent-free).
• That more expensive styles sell more than lesser expensive ones.
• The converse is true with Solaire, where our portables are the top sellers, but that is expected, given the greater cost difference between a portable and a backyard grill compared to differing gas log styles.
• Within Bromic, 2018 continued with Electric outselling Gas at about 2 to 1.
• Platinum Gas is still the king of the gas heaters, with the Tungsten Portable the new co-king of gas.
