10 customers mention0 positive10 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the clogging of the precision measuring device. They mention that it clogs easily after chipping a few small pieces, and that it tends to clogged the outlet chute periodically. The exhaust chute gets clocked with small branches and dry leaves. The chipper blade to plate clearance is not kept tight, and it can cLOG the exit chute if you feed too fast. The performance is marginal with frequent clinging, and the device slows down, stalls, or jams.

"...long fiber easily jammed the blade side rotating axle and causing engine to stall...." Read more

"...dry branches under 2" in diameter will cause it to slow down, stall or jam...." Read more

6 customers mention0 positive6 negative

Customers are dissatisfied with the durability of the precision measuring tool. They mention that some smaller sticks and branches don't get chipped very well, the chipper stopped working after about 10 minutes of use, the chute is clogged, and the chips back up into the blade area. The tire rim cracked or broke when pulling off the pallet, and they think the bolts are not made of very strong metal.

"...My opinion is the bolts are not made of very strong metal hence why two of the stripped...." Read more

"...2. Some smaller sticks and branches don't get chipped very well. This is a minor complaint as for the most part I have quite small chips.3...." Read more

"...The chipper doesn't chip the trees into fine enough pieces, resulting in the exhaust chute getting clogged with the small branches of the tree...." Read more

"...But I already have a broken wheel cause the tire rim is hardened plastic. Hard to manuveur if you live in the country...." Read more

You WILL get burnt!
4 Stars
You WILL get burnt!
...if you are not careful to avoid the muffler/spark arrestor on this equipment. (shown on the left in the above picture.)It's a great place to rest your left hand as your reach for the starter rope to pull for starting but if the machine has been running, that is the worst place you can put your hand or any other part of your body. It's terribly hot as I fortunately learned with a gloved hand several times. I plan to paint that muffler cover with high heat bright red paint. Otherwise, this is a heavy duty shredder/chipper that will start with one pull. However, you cannot just stuff vegetation and branches into the large hopper as it descends to a small opening just before entering the blades of the chipper. This machines needs to be "fed". That is, you need to break up branches and limbs into smaller pieces to get them into the business end of the chipper. Long narrow material will feed easily into the hopper and will chop up nicely. Glad i bought it, I would do it again but don't get fry yourself on that muffler! Should have been better engineered so I took off a star on the overall rating.

4.0 out of 5 stars UPDATE AFTER USE: BEEFY, SOLID, CHIPPER & LOOKS TO BE EXCELLENT VALUE FOR THE COST.
Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2018
Verified Purchase
This is the first major item as far as expense that I have purchased online at Amazon. I did several hours of online research and this little jewel as stated by reviews from numerous websites is a good bang for the buck. I'm a bit older so it took me a little while between reading the directions to ensure I didn't miss anything; actual assembly in total about 3 hours. I plan to use it today to chip up fruit tree branches; depending on how it operates and if the seller provides me replacement items mentioned in "CONS" will likely bump it up to a "5". PROS: Definitely beefy! I read some reviews talking about big, bulky, hard to move... In my opinion its built right, and relatively easy to move and looks to be very mobile; maybe others did not tilt it far enough down ensuring based cleared the ground. It is built very solid, great heavy duty commercial level paint one would see on farm equipment. I am excitedly looking forward to using it today. CONS: Two of the bolts stripped, one was part of the 9 nut/bolt assemblies for connecting the larger housing to the smaller. The 2nd and more important one was the was the larger nut/bolt assembly that is critical to holding the large funnel to the chipper. The 1st of two large bolt/nut assembly no problems, but the second one started and got as far as the bolt coming even with the outside of the nut then just spun and it should have tightened to the point there was 3/8 inch or so of the bolt sticking beyond the nut. Additionally, several of the bolt/nut assemblies did not have a lock washer despite the directions stating otherwise (had 2 washers, just no lock washers)...this is a concern since this thing likely will be vibrating a lot, hence the need for lock washers. I have spent my life working on machines and definitely did not over torque. My opinion is the bolts are not made of very strong metal hence why two of the stripped. Despite these couple of negatives I think this thing will be considered an excellent purchase and last a very long time. FOLLOW UP TO ORIGINAL: Ok, so I fired this up it took a few minutes to engage the clutch without stalling the engine...likely my fault. After using I would agree with the reviewer that stated use it on seasoned wood clippings as the fruit tree trimming I put in the chute frequently clogged it and stopped the engine. I had to loosen the large nut w/phillips head screw retainer to allow me to flip the exit funnel so I could get to the material that clogged the machine about 10 times. A bit frustrating, but LIKELY due to the fact that the trimmings were green and small resulting in spitting out 8-12 pieces of the smaller branch ends. My intent was to just let it spit the chips on our garden, and till them into the soil to decompose. However, looks like it may be somewhat problematic for the tiller...we'll see. I still give it a 4+ because anything from 3" down in diameter except for the 1/4" clippings did fine. I have rented a commercial chipper before and it did much worse than this little guy. I again reiterate this thing is very easy to move around and I did so parallel to my garden area to ensure chips were evenly spread...simple to do and feel this machine is a keeper....starts very easy as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice Chipper for the Money
Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2018

Update 2 years later.
Still 5 stars.
Still very easy to start. I keep it in a garage when not in use, so no rust and very little maintenance.
Found that newly cut pine bows and small pine trees go through very easily. Oak and maple take more time. I do not chip anything that is stringy like junipers as they get caught around the flywheel.
Still on the original blades but its probably time I sharpen them or buy new to replace.
This machine gets used for about 4-6 hours every 3 weeks and looks also new still.
Moving it around is still a chore but doable. Luckily my 16 year old son moves it for me and he doesn't seem to mind.
Overall good investment so far. If goes for another couple years, I'll feel like I got my money's worth.

Purchased early this year. Have been using every weekend for last 3 months.

Pros
Packaged very well
Easy to put together
Extremely easy to start
Chips green pine/maple/oak branches very easily up to 3"+
Shreds dry leaves, twigs, pine cones, etc.. without any clogging (just don't put too much in at once)
Tank of gas will give hours of work
Very sturdy, heavy, solidly built, thick metal and good finish (does make for a con though for move-ability)

Pro and Con
Chips dried pine/maple/oak branches but bogs down on anything over 2" (always give time for flywheel to speed back up)
Clogs but if you take your time and feed properly you shouldn't have any issues (i removed the safety flap)
Moves around but not real easy (flat level land is great, anything with rocks or roots will be difficult)
It isn't that loud (i don't use hearing protection and its fine), but if it bothers you, please use hearing protection

Cons
Stringy type branches can wrap around flywheel and its a tough job clearing out (have to use long needle nose pliers)
Not as powerful as I would like for dried branches 3-4"
Wish it was a little easier to move (or some type of attachment to pull with my tractor)

All in all, I really like this chipper. Have been cleaning up a couple acres (mix of pine, oak, and maple trees). No real complaints. I immediately removed the safety flap inside the discharge chute. I managed to clog it once more, but I was just being impatient and put too many wet pine bows in at the same time. It does matter how you feed branches. Can't really explain, but after you used it for a couple hours, you will get the hang of it. Once I got through the learning curve, I can now take care of a huge pile of large branches in an hour or so. So much better than trying to burn everything or wait for the semi-annual town pickup or taking to the town dump.

3.0 out of 5 stars Reasonably priced chipper for home use
Reviewed in the United States on April 21, 2018
Verified Purchase
This is the 1st wood chipper I've ever used, so, I can't compare with other models. I tried chipping 2” diameter branches -- worked, not perfect. Dirty job and very noisy. Reason I got it was: it took a long time to dump trimmed tree branches every year - trash company takes only 1 yard waste bin every other week. It took a long time to dump the branches.

Generally, it kind of works. (1) Anything with long fiber easily jammed the blade side rotating axle and causing engine to stall. This is a design mistake — Stanley wood chipper didn’t have this problem. (2) Cutting blade and the anvil has a large angle. This is another design mistake.

Overall impression of the chipper: sturdy but have design mistakes. The company shipping folks did excellent job on packaging.
