I bought it on 9/2/22, the first day, and I cut one ton of pine continuously without a break. I cut a trunk with a diameter of 35 centimeters. After 2 hours of work, it had only warmed up slightly. It has no issues with temperatures, low noise. I will also try it on larger diameter wood and will comment again. I will also cut another type of wood. It is definitely worth the money. I bought it for simpler work because I have a 20-ton press and it is for repairs, so I know how to compare it and I tested it to see. So far, very satisfied!

Today, I cut 4.5 tons continuously without stopping, and the machine did not lose performance. It even cut eucalyptus. I will also add a photo for you to see that the wood is still intact, even in any size, it cuts everything as you can see in the photo!

It is only suitable for dry rotten trees and very soft wood. It is not powerful enough to cut hard trees like oak. IT IS NOT WORTH THE MONEY UNFORTUNATELY

  The machine is not playable!!! I heard about other machines struggling, but this one easily opened the difficult pieces in pine!!! Now, for other woods like oak and other excessively hard ones, what can it do? Someone should get a professional machine

  Excellent first impressions, it does what it promises without compromises.
  Notable details.
  You need to place it on a stable/horizontal base to avoid the bending that is very tiring if you have a lot of wood.
  I use it without its fence (I do not recommend it, just informing) as it is so powerful that it can handle much larger pieces of wood.
  It is good to have a "push stick" to help the sliding piston not reach the end of its travel, try it and you will see how useful it is.
  After cutting 10 tons of wood in the sizes I needed, absolutely no problems.

  Some like this tough and stubborn chainsaw needs a little start with the chainsaw. All the rest opens very well for its money

  I have it for about six months... I have split about 10 cubic meters of pine... in the very large ones you struggle and it is logical... One issue is that it does not fully terminate the piston and it does not completely split some of the wood. I solved this by adding a 20 centimeter piece of wood between the wood and the piston... It is worth it in the end...

  Very good. In the photo, 1.5 hours of work with medium and very large logs. It did not have any difficulty at any point.

  I used plane tree, acacia, and walnut for the flooring and I couldn't believe it, it exceeded its specifications. Everything I cut was dry, even the green ones. I still don't know, I want to work with it a little more and I will write in detail with videos and photos

  I bought it in March '22 and wrote a negative review back then, but it somehow got deleted.
  I got it to split dry pine. It is very weak. If it finds a large natural crack, it cuts it. Otherwise, it gets stuck. The only way is to create a crack with a chainsaw and then split it, which means a lot of effort and time.

  I bought it on 5/1/2022 and so far I have shredded 1 car of pine, eucalyptus, cypress, and olive wood. The pine and cypress had knots, and it didn't get stuck anywhere as long as you put the knots on the side where the wood is pushed and not the other way around. I am very satisfied, it's worth its money.

  I was not satisfied at all with the machine. I borrowed it to cut eucalyptus and pine, but it struggled to cut even a small pine tree in 30 seconds, whereas with a 3.5kg axe, I could have split it in a second. It didn't even open the eucalyptus, although it was dry and had been cut for 5 months, making it harder than fresh wood. In short, in my opinion, it's not worth it if you can work with an axe. * The trunks that were tested were a maximum of 30cm in length and a maximum of 25cm in thickness

  As soon as I got it, we brought a 40-foot long dry tree in pieces and with a diameter ranging from 20 to 40cm, totaling about one ton. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because I want to see its durability after some time, because otherwise it has nothing to envy. It is very powerful and my wife and I finished the tree in an hour, stacked and ready. You forget about the hassle and fatigue. I will update after using it extensively, but it has already impressed me as a machine. I came back this year to inform that I don't know what I would do without it, especially when we had trouble with the wood and when the power company cut down some trees that were interfering with their cables, we had to rush to collect as much as we could. This tool saved our hands. Here is the video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25VDyPeAVcE&t=9s

  The large diameter logs (60-70cm) split easily, piece by piece, with gradual rotation of the log and multiple splits until it reached the desired size.
  The height of the log being low (e.g. up to 30cm) plays a bigger role than the diameter. Logs with a height of 30cm, diameter up to 70cm, and with the appropriate use, proved to be manageable for the machine.
  In normal use, according to the manufacturer's specifications and slightly more according to common sense, it is reliable.
  Obviously, when for any reason a piece did not split and struggled unnecessarily, I immediately stopped the process, rotated the log, changed its position, and tried again to split it. This way, the machine did not strain and I did a good job.
  Also, between splits from log to log, I took breaks of 30-40 seconds (quickly gathering the split wood pieces).
  I worked with it using the above method, in the middle of summer with 38°C, continuously for 3 hours and it never gave up. The motor was running, but it did not overheat, it never stopped. And I was using logs of 60-70cm, not just small 25cm logs.

  To work quickly, two people are needed. The first operator handles the continuous activation/deactivation of the machine, and the second operator handles the feeding and rotation of the logs during splitting. The work of the first operator is sitting, it does not require physical strength, it is quite simple, but it needs to be well coordinated with the feeder to maintain a good pace of work.
  Of course, always-always-always wear work gloves and eye protection goggles. The machine is powerful and sometimes wood pieces are thrown forcefully.

  Tip: When the logs are large, the black side guides on which the piston pushes the log are pressed quite hard, so I removed them to prevent damage.

  The drier the wood, the easier the splitting.
  Sometimes splitting is not completed on the first attempt, but with 2-3 repetitions gradually rotating the wood around its axis.
  The only wood that has not been able to split so far is a branch from a Plane tree with a diameter of 20cm, which was not completely dry.

  It does its job extremely well.
  It did not get stuck on olive wood or on logs of conifers with a diameter of 60cm and a height of 30cm.
  With the additional accessory, the crosshead kraft 692124 (12EUR), the work time is reduced by half.
  Update: The crosshead, while beneficial for small logs, is not suitable for very large ones. In the end, I did not use it much.

  **Definitely wear protective goggles...**

  It is a very good machine and worth its money.
  I do not give it the maximum rating because it "got stuck" on 2 small but hard pieces of wood.
  Also, the instructions for use need to be made more understandable.

  The machine shoots. It cuts a 25cm trunk without you feeling any difficulty. I highly recommend it with closed eyes.
