Customers are mixed about the size of the paper shredder. Some mention that it doesn't take up much space in the garage, and the chips are not too large and not too small.

Excellent wood chipper and mulcher for homeowners with trees on their property.
5 Stars
Excellent wood chipper and mulcher for homeowners with trees on their property.
The wood chipper and mulcher is a great lawn gardening tool for a the homeowner with tree branches and leaves to clean up every year or after each season. I bought mine to deal with a large pile of oak branches that fell from a summer wind storm. It was easy to assemble after watching a video on you tube of someone else assembling a similar machine, I recommend it. This is two machines in one, I will explain. The large hopper is for MULCHING and should be used only for leaves and small twigs. The NARROW funnel is for thicker branches no more than 3" thick they should be pruned IF are Y shaped branches sticking out. You DON'T want to force or overload the hoppers, this will only cause the machine to stall and waste time cleaning the debris stuck inside. The machine uses 2 blades to chip branches and 4 claw hammers that SPIN FREELY to mulch and the sound of metal clanking when you turn off this machine After about 8 straight hours of use I spread the mulched material around the shrubs in my yard with the large Zipper bag that is INCLUDED. I wouldn't want a bigger bag because this get heavy to carry around but it worked great, After using the machine I emptied the fuel and disconnected the spark plug wire to take it apart and sharpen the 2 blades. You will know when they are dull because the branches will not be pulled into the chipper anymore. I watched a few more videos on how to do this and they helped! I was able to sharpen the blades and reinstall and it worked like new! ( I don't recommend doing this for everyone) having a lawnmower repair shop would be a better choice! You should stop using the machine when the blades get dull it can ruin the blades and damage the machine. Understand this machine is for occasional use not a commercial type chipper.

Reviewed in the United States on October 5, 2022
Used this chipper now for 2 years. As the wife is big gardener the mulch is much needed. It handles pretty much anything I feed it up to about 2" of hard wood but that is to be expected. Can use without the bag if you don't care where the chips go as this is so powerful the material sprays pretty far. Using the bag allows you to put it right where you want it.
Was easy for me to assemble but I am pretty handy. You are supposed to sharpen the branch blades periodically and I can do that but requires some disassembly. Had to deal with an issue and Paul with customer service was fantastic.

PROS
- Easy start every time, even after sitting through the winter
- Enough power to chew through most everything, though had some difficulty with larger diameter aged oak, but that is to be expected.
- Large gas tank so runs for as long as I can.
- Large tires make it easy to move around the yard.
- Great customer service

CONS
- Bolts holding bag on are not user friendly (went to hardware store and replaced with plastic head thumb screws. easy fix)

Recommend for anyone who needs a step above the cheap, low power garden waste shredders. This has the power to handle branches and other garden waste making great mulch.

UPDATE: Had a couple of broken parts, mostly my own fault for not stopping and taking it apart when it started to make a funny noise. Contacted customer support and Paul was able to get me some parts in just a week. Installed the new blades, put it back together and it started up first pull. Note: you should check the blades and the hammers periodically after a lot of use.

Assembly was easy, filling with oil was a little tricky (Of my many funnels, one could do it) but the engine started on the VERY first pull - so awesome! Since the tank was empty I was figuring it would take some pulls just to draw fuel in, but it fired up right away. Obviously, do read the manual for the engine to understand how the throttle, choke, fuel cut-off and engine cutoffs work.

The chipper does a good job on limbs it is sized for, but understand the limbs need to be straight, without any forks or anything else that will cause them to jam in the chute. Unjamming is a pain.

The shredder does a good but not great job on my live oak leaves - some pass through more or less untouched. I'm still looking for a great solution for live oak leaves, as the adjustable-intake string shredders that are available do an excellent job if the intake is made narrow enough, almost converting them to powder, but the leaves are so tough one needs to replace the string pretty often.

The shredder also does a good job on fibrous garden waste, but one needs to be careful not to feed too much in at once or it will jam in the chute.

The engine has a lot of power and the chutes are wide enough to easily take an arm, so unjamming the chipper or shredder while running is too terrifying for me. Early on it was jamming one way or another a lot but after some use, I learned what will cause a jam and generally was able to avoid those situations.

But the bag that is provided is just way too small - it fills quickly, meaning shutting down the engine, emptying the bag, and restarting, interrupting overall workflow. There is a bigger bag 24" by 48" that a buyer will want to get right away - factor that into the purchase decision as it is over $50. Also the bag attachment, with thumb screws, is not well thought out. An elastic over hooks would be much more ergonomic and interrupt workflow less.

I have the optional leaf vacuum on order but it hasn't arrived yet, so no experience with that..

So overall, looks like pretty good value for the money, but definitely with some quirks that need to be dealt with.

The chipper was easy to assemble. There are some shortfalls in the instructions such as the little blue piece of metal that seems to be for closing off the upper chute. Unless I missed it, there is nothing specific about how to mount it.

CON: The bag is nice quality however, the chips pile up right at the discharge chute and tend to back up into the cutting chamber. I had to stop twice to unclog chips. Then I left the bag off and went to town on the rest of my branches. No clogging after that.

The chipper works well except that if you have a very long branch that is close to the 3" limit, the chipper can bog down as it cuts. The motor slows and can stall. You can avoid this by cutting very long branches or snatch the branch back very carefully to allow the motor to get back up to speed. That is risky and really not recommended. But after using it for a short time, I learned the best way to handle the branches and nothing can stop me now. Except for a 4" branch.

This year i will save myself time and money not having to go to dispose of trimmings all the time. I've only had this unit 6 months and it has already paid for its self.
Reviewed in the United States on June 9, 2020
I am disappointed in this machine, mostly because of design problems that make using it difficult. For example, the infeed chute blocks the gas cap making it difficult to fill the gas tank with a standard gas can. I had to resort to a funnel and tube to get enough clearance. Putting oil in was a similar problem, there is no way to pour oil in except with a funnel and tube. I have had other engines where the oil could be poured in through an outlet near the top of the machine, This oil filler opening is a near the bottom, you have to remove the branch chipping chute which requires loosening three nuts. Where were your design engineers? It is lightweight to move around but that advantage is offset by the fact that while working on a medium load one has to hold onto the machine because it dances around. I suspect it needs a sandbag or some kind or screw-in soil anchor to stop this. The bolt holes for holding the discharge bag on were off-center and I had to re-tap them to be able to get the screw knob to screw in. For one using it solo I feel this is a dangerous situation. Other than that, it was easy to assemble, lightweight to roll around and the noise level is tolerable if one wears ear protection. If it wasn’t.t such a problem to return it, I would. I cannot recommend this machine.

Reviewed in Canada on August 9, 2023
this machine was more than I expected. It was small and heavy. Didn't look like it was up for the job. After reading a lot of negative comments on it I was sure I had made a mistake, But wow! after I got it together and running I found out that this is a very hungry beast and get out of the way when it gets a hold of branch!. I just love it! Very useful around the yard and garden. Easy to move around the yard and easy to store as it takes very little room. Happy, Happy!!

I've had the chipper shredder for some months and it has been heavily used. The chipper and shredder has been invaluable on our acreage. It does a great job managing my orchard, vines and berry bushes. Because it is easily transported from one site to the next it makes each projects very easy. The shredder I use to pulverize dry leaves and grass, which I use as poultry bedding. The bagging option is invaluable. The availability of replacement blades at a very reasonable price is wonderful. Any support I required was prompt and very helpful.
