Pros & Cons
Pros
No issues after six hours of use. Ear plugs are a non issue if you are working for longer duration. Drawback is the discharge * gets clogged up and needs cleaning out often. Goggles and gloves are essential because you will be generating lots of small... Read More
It chews up branches slightly larger than i expected, slowly but without jamming and braking down. It does fine with small weirdly shaped twigs, and crooked branches. Dry branches were chipped quite well, sometimes struggle with dried hardwood but wil... Read More
For an amateur home gardener this product is good value. The mulch isn't anything to write home about, but it'll do. It's light and very portable. The chip size is bigger than normal mulch you can buy.
The chipper fits perfectly in the base of the cart. It's a good size for a small electric chipper. The only drawback is that the chipper needs to be cleared frequently.
Great for what it's supposed to do - recommended. If you take your time and not rush it it works great. Nothing bad or too dangerous though.
Cons
The outflow side of the chipper has some serious problems. Instead of chipping the wood, the blades crush the wood against the counterplate. The result is more of a cut, than a chip/shred as can be seen in the photo.
The feeding tunnel entrance is narrow and doesn't funnel much material into the cutting *. There is no way to adjusted this so it will shred, according to their product support. Started smoking and broke down after putting twigs in it.
Highlights
Quality
Outstanding product works great and very easy to move around.
I am happy with it's quality and ease of moving it to multiple locations.
Effectively chopped down all branches (with leaves) up to a diameter of 1 inch with ease, and 1.
Dozens of 1” and above branches shredded into mulched waste.
Price
We saved a lot of money by buying this and disposing of the bush ourselves.
It seems like a waste to pay to have this stuff hauled away only to buy mulch later.
That's quite decent for an inexpensive little machine.
As for as electric chippers go, this was relatively inexpensive, strong enough to handle 1” thick branches, and doesn’t really ... Read More
Shipping
That being said,i would have given 5 stars if it was a great shreader.
Packaging/appearance
I immediatelyopened the box, assembled it in about 10 minutes and immediately went to work.
Competitiveness
I also chip mostly silver maple which is a softer wood than other maples.
The blade design is similar to industrial grinders.

Bought this product to chip up crape myrle tree trimmings and other hard and soft wood trimmings and fallen branches that i use as organic material in my vegetable garden

Assembly was incredibly simple and took less than 5 minutes

Operationally it sliced through the crape myrtle trimmings like butter allowing me to chip up a 8’lx6’wx4’h pile in less than an hour

However if you’re looking to create commerciallike mulch this is not the product for you as it’s a chipper and not a shredder
