Good Little Chipper Product arrived quickly and was easy to assemble. I put it right to work and have waited a several months before writing this review. It works great for a light weight chipper. It cuts with a horizontal spinning lawn-mower type blade (like a food slicer) and quickly chips through green wood up to 1-1/2 inches. If the wood is very dry or a hard wood, it won’t take this diameter. It makes small chips of most material–just right for the compost pile or to use as mulch. However, small branch ends…
A little disappointed. I don’t know if I received one with dull blades or not. But this unit is supposed to take everything up to 1 1/2″ thickness. Mine doesn’t. Even small branches (1/8″ dia) are not really chopped up but tend to be just stripped of bark. Kind of disappointed. I also wish the intake hopper was larger. It sucks having to cut things up (like old roots and bulbs) with a hoe before you put them into the shredder. It seems to have adequate power though. Would not buy another one.
Does exactly what it is designed to do. I’m going to guess that anybody who is giving this low marks either:1) Expected this $150 device to perform the kind of work for which a $500-$1,000 device is designed.2) Tried to force this $150 device to do that kind of work anyway and ended up jamming it frequently.3) Failed to flip the blade when it became dull after extended use (and extend use could mean one long day of chipping!)4) Just got unlucky and received a bum unit.The only thing I think…
