Works better than I expected
Style: Splitter
We've got a couple of maple trees that I cut into approximately 15" logs, 14" in diameter on average. They're a little short; I should have made them 18 or 20" but too late now. This splitter works great, though. For the shorter logs, I use a good, straight piece of wood as a spacer and it's worked great. You have to be careful that the spacer doesn't cause the log to pop out and become a flying projectile. In fact Snow Joe doesn't recommend this approach, so do this at your own risk! I've done about 5 logs so far, and will finish these trees in a few days. It's easy to use and doesn't hurt my back the way swinging an axe does. The satisfying sound of the log cracking in half is music to my ears. I just go ahead and split a log down to 6-8 pieces suitable for use in my small wood stove. Takes about 5-10 minutes per log. I think for the price, this machine is pretty good. The electric and gasoline splitters are way more expensive and inconvenient. If you're doing large scale splitting, like to produce several cords of wood, this might be insufficient and you need to consider shelling out $300-$500 for a motorized heavy duty splitter, but for casual use like chopping up a single tree, the Snow Joe is pretty close to ideal. The worrisome thing is that several of the reviewers report defective units, like the knobs breaking off or the piston suddenly failing to work. But so far, my unit has worked great. It stores upright in the garage and takes up very little space. It does have wheels, and you have to be somewhat in shape to haul this thing around, but it's not that hard, not harder than pulling a heavy mower around for example. I don't try to take it down to where the wood is at the rear of the yard; the wheels seem too small and it seems like it would end up just getting dragged through the soft dirt and mud, and then I have to drag it back up the hill to the garage. So I just wheel it out onto the driveway, and wheelbarrow my logs back and forth. For the amount I have, this works out great. If you have a pretty big pile of logs, though, you may need to load this thing onto a hand cart to wheel it to where the wood is, and maybe lay it down on a 2-by-4 or a plank of plywood for stability. I've noticed it will rock back and forth while you are working the levers, if it's set on an uneven surface, so you do need to make sure it's on a flat, level surface. Not much else to say about this. In a couple of months I'll probably add more oil, if the instructions are accurate, and if that is problematic, I'll add a note about that here. Otherwise... it's time to "make like a banana and split"!!! ... show more

Very effective tool
Style: Splitter
Very simple and easy to use. Just stick the handles in and start splitting. It is a little awkward to move around, but what do you expect from a machine that produces 10 tons of force? I don't expect to be moving it from place to place anyway. I am a semi-retired mechanical engineer so I am not easy to impress with this sort of thing, but I was. The unit is stable and feels very solid. I am not concerned about it coming apart while splitting. I got this splitter to be able to take larger split wood down to smaller sizes for easier burning, so I have not split any full logs with it yet. A couple years ago I got bursitis in one elbow from swinging my splitting maul too long, and as I age I don't want that to happen again. The "exercise" needed to operate this splitter is akin to using an elliptical, but with a little more force. I don't think I ever pulled with more than 10-15 lbs of force in splitting 1/4 logs about 6" thick. Typically took about 6 loaded strokes to split the piece. I finished two small wagon loads in about 30 minutes. No strain at all. If you control the release valve well, you can drop the next log in without much space which allows you to start splitting strokes right away. But the best thing is that the splits are all precisely where you want them - versus with an axe or splitting maul, where it's a bit random, and dangerous. I feel 100X safer in using this tool versus a splitting maul or axe. (I may give them away). I rarely give reviews but this manual splitter is a fantastic value and delivers everything I needed. ... show more

Works great
Style: Splitter
this is a solid but weighty piece of equipment. It took longer to get off the porch and unpacked than to set up and start splitting the seasoned mesquite I had been unsuccessful in splitting by other means. Super easy to use, all my logs were in specs suggested but I suspect larger diameter logs would be handled just as easily. Money well spent for me. This is a substantial piece of equipment both in weight and space required for use. It does stand up after use to a small footprint for storage. ... show more

Does what it says it will do
Style: Splitter
I found this to be a well-built product that delivered what it promised. It is built sturdy. It's a heavy steel I-beam with the hydraulic jack on one end and a solidly braced steel splitting wedge on the other end. It was usable as soon as I read the instructions. It's about 90 lbs, so I use a handcart to roll it to my splitting location. It has small wheels, but they are designed for paved surfaces, not forest floor. I split about 50+ rounds ranging from 4 -12" dia. of freshly cut elm in about 4 hours. No back-ache, no near-misses between an ax and my leg. It does need your rounds to be cut between 14" and 18" long to split them. It says it can only split up to 8" diameter, but If I started a split on a larger round just enough to start it cracking, I could flip it 180-degrees and get it to continue the split from the other side. Then I could lay the flat side down, and it split the rest fine. When I had some short logs, the instructions tell you you can put a square wood block (4x4, 6x6) in to extend the log length. That works fine. If the round is longer than 18", you need to cut it shorter. Some reviewers said they broke the handles. They're a lot stronger than I am. The 10-ton hydraulic jack has two pumps, one for each sturdy handle. One pump pushes about double of the other pump. You can pump both handles, which is like cross-country skiing pole movements, until the double pump is too hard to push. Then you continue with the other pump handle until the wood cracks. The only wood I had problems splitting were the joints with many branches. That's extremely hard wood. I had to reposition the wood for several try to find a weak point that would finally tear the wood. That piece ended up more shredded than split. I planned to split half of my wood stack, but this beastie made it so easy, I was able to finish the whole pile. (Tip: You can save a lot of pumping if you only release enough pressure to retrack the ram to the length of the next round, instead of fully open.) ... show more

This thing is a BEAST
Style: Splitter
I don't understand why some reviews say this splitter is underpowered or that it won't split anything an axe won't split. Maybe those folks have He-Man super strength and are used to splitting redwoods with a giant axe or something, I don't know. But for us normal folks with normal sized trees this thing absolutely gets it done. The description states "logs 8 inches in diameter", and at risk of jeopardizing my warranty I don't want to say exactly how large the logs are I've been splitting, so let me put it this way - I wouldn't even bother getting this beast out of the garage for an 8 inch diamter long. The pros: -Super easy to use -No engines to fail or hoses to wear out. This thing is basically an I beam, a heavy metal wedge and a bottle jack, so I'm expecting years of use. -Small storage footprint The cons: -The wheels are tiny and kinda suck -It's great for a homeowner who has 1-2 trees per year come down during storms, but I would NOT want to try to split enough wood to, say, heat my house all winter I think the biggest concern folks should have when considering this splitter isn't size of logs to split but rather volume. I think thr average homeowner would be hard pressed to find a tree this hoss couldn't process. That being said, if your aim is to heat your house all winter with wood, the manual nature of this splitter wouldn't make it a viable option (unless you want Popeye forearms). Bottom line: I've only used it twice so far on a hardwood a storm took down approx. 1 month ago, but those two uses yielded roughly 2 pickup truck loads of firewood. I've not had any issues yet, but will certainly update this review if I do. Based on my experience so far, I think this is a perfect splitter for a homeowner with up to a couple of acres who wants something for storm cleanup or to keep the summer fire pit fed. ... show more

A life saver for smaller jobs
Style: Splitter
I had looked at gas powered splitters in the past, but after a storm took down a couple of trees in the yard, both great for firewood, I looked around for something that would fit the budget and landed on this. Best money I have spent in years. That said, you will still get somewhat of a workout, but nothing like swinging a sledgehammer onto a wedge. This thing splits log’s great and will also split logs much larger than that advertised. As me how I know! One of the biggest drawbacks to this product is the “wheels”. They are tiny and work well for rolling the splitter around on concrete. That’s it. Do not expect to roll this around the yard. I found the best way to use this is to find a nice level spot, put it there and then bring the logs to it to be split. The wheels are great for rolling it back into the basement or garage and maneuvering it to and from it’s storage position. In the dirt, the tiny wheels just sink and you are dragging it around. Overall, very pleased with my purchase and I have a huge stack of firewood now for next year! ... show more

Breaks easily; unhelpful customer service.
Style: Splitter
This product broke after using it to split a total of five logs. When I submitted a request for a refund, the company said I have to return the product but must pay for packaging for a nearly 80 lb. object. Their product is defective, but they take no responsibility. Clearly this must happen a lot or they would stand by their product. My advice? DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY. ... show more
