Works great for the wood I split. Mostly Silver maple, some mulberry. Very happy with purchase. Good price, fast shipping, & works great!
I love this splitter. I wanted to use it a couple times before submitting the review and the splitter works so well. I chopped a lot of wood of various sizes and moisture levels while my husband was away and it was so easy! The only complaints I have are the little plastic handle on the front is worthless and broke first time moving it. Would suggest a metal handle because the splitter is so heavy that plastic can't withstand the weight. Second, I love the stand for the splitter it is so much nicer to stand and chop wood vs sitting on the ground but I find it more difficult to move and pull to my log splitting destination from the garage. If the front leg was able to fold back and the plastic handle on the top was metal, I think that would be ideal. For now I'm going to try to rig something up so that moving it around is easier.
But the splitter itself works great!
I've hand split my wood for years and Father Time has finally caught up with me. I decided to research and purchase a basic wood splitter. After several hours of googling, reading, and comparing I determined to find out who builds them and where the companies were located. So pleased that I went to the Bilt Hard website and learned about them. Most of my research had been on large company websites but I like to buy 'American'. After I went to bilthardusa.com it was all over. The splitter was less expensive on their website. I ordered it. In 3 days it was delivered. It's great, I love it, and use it serveral days each week. I split mostly juniper for kindling (very easily) and have tried pinyon pine which doesn't split as easily but it's doable. I have a lot of honey locust which splits fine but is a much tougher wood than juniper or pinyon. I have tried some large knotty pieces of locust but am very careful not to overtax the splitter. As long as I stay with the smaller wood it's great. I do not split wood to sell to others only for personal use. For personal use I think it's a great piece of equipment and I'm very pleased.
It's easy to operate and it splits wood excellent. I can split kindling real easy by adjusting the slide. It really impresses me a lot .
I love this saw & it didn’t even take long to put it together. I cut down 10 pine trees and some heavy bushes 3” around off the fence line. It’s perfect and what a chain saw it is.
I'm sure it works great on soft woods, but on hard woods, anything larger than 1 3/4" in diameter, it will stall out. Other than that, a solid little machine.
