 Purchase at your own peril ! November 11, 2008

The item is very heavy but is shipped in a cheap cardboard box. It arrived via fedex damaged; so did its replacement. The splitter needs to be packed in a wooden crate or at least a tougher box with handles. If you can buy the splitter off the shelf, I suspect it would work great, but if you have it shipped to you, expect it to be damaged. The operating instructions might as well be written in Chinese because they are basically worthless.

I've split 3 cords with it so far, Its doing about a cord per hour. I have only found 3 logs in those cords that it would not split and that was because the logs were slightly too long. I am splitting Pine so it never really loads the machine hard.
This machine is momentary on , it dosen't run continuously. you have to press a electric switch and hold it with one hand and then operate a hydraulic lever with the other , its a safety feature , my main concern is for the durability of the electric switch, it does seem tough, but every single log is a on/off cycle.
I have 2 more cord to go for this year and it seems to be doing a great job . For the price this is a great little machine.

I split a bunch of oak with this unit, but it would not split any unseasoned wood. It's too wet. I stacked my unseasoned oak away and will wait until next season to spilt it. Otherwise, I had no problem splitting big rounds (12 to 15 inches) of seasoned oak.

I was so excited to finally receive this "little gem." Worked great for a whopping 1/2 cord of wood, then the return wouldn't work. I called McCullogh and received little help, got droped off the line (I'm thinking on purpose now) and could never get another technician (over 4 hours of trying).
 Great for the back yard May 22, 2008

The item is perfect for what I needed. However... it arrived damaged and the problem was never rectified.
